February 6, 2014-Zumba!!

On February 6, 2014, it was choice and we had an option of soccer, volleyball, or zumba. I was thinking about asking Mr. Neufeld if my friends and I could play badminton, but then I thought zumba would be fun to do and so my friends and I chose to participate in zumba for the gym block. In the beginning of the class I was skeptical of how my participation was going to be maximized when doing zumba because I usually don't like dancing in front of people. However when Ms. Phillips played the video, I was able to get out of my comfort zone and dance. I actually really got in to it and I wasn't shy or uncomfortable at all while doing it. Both my friends and I got out of our bubbles and tried something we would not normally do before. I really enjoyed dancing and it was a fun way to get a good exercise too. I had so much fun that by the end of the block, I was sad that gym was over. I felt that the gym block went by so fast because I was so engaged in the activity I was doing. I made the gym block fun by having such a positive attitude and smiling while dancing. This allowed my friends to loosen up and to just have a good time. My friends and I were able to dance and not worry about who's watching.  I'm actually considering buying a Zumba DVD set so I can dance along with it!!
