Just wanted to send you a thank you for the wonderful classes!!! I have a 14 month old and have tried many other methods to lose the last of my baby weight. Your class has not only helped me shed the last pounds, but has strengthen my core and tightened me all over! My husband and pledge sisters from college all agree I am in the best shape ever! Once I tried your class, no other workout method would do!
~Whitney
Your enthusiasm is infectious and has inspired me to get in shape and have fun to boot! Your classes are AWESOME!!! As I leave one of your classes I am already eager to attend the next! Thank you so much for what you do...it means a lot to me. Zumba rules!!
~Louise
I enjoyed your Zumba class this morning, it was awesome!! I just wanted to let you know that you have really helped me get on the right track to become healthier. I have started eating right and drinking a lot more water then I ever have. I feel great when I leave your class and I am so excited to go the next class. I just wanted to say thank you!! I that my soon to be husband, is very happy to see that I am enjoying this and becoming a healthier person. Again, thank you for sharing your passion with me!!
~Molly
I just have to say thank you for running your Zumba class organized and like a professional. WOW. I just finished the longest hour of my life. I don't work today so I thought I would try the Zumba class at another location. I have heard if you like Lisa's class no other will do and I have to agree. I was just thinking I could get another class in a week with this one... WRONG. Thank you, Thank you, You ROCK!
~Katy
So I tried another class that was advertised as "first class free" with another instructor, since it was free, and it was a morning class at a time you didn't teach. I looked them up online and thought what do I have to lose. BOY WAS I WRONG. I lost an hour of my life, gas and a poor workout as a result. The class was nothing like yours and I was seriously disappointed ! I was so ready to leave I couldn't keep from looking at my watch, if it wouldnt have been rude I would have left 10min into the class. Live and learn, I will not be trying any other classes again. I guess your slogan says it all, Experience the difference, which I had never done.
~Mallory
I just wanted to say "Thank you" for bringing Zumba® Fitness into my life. I know that you get stories all of the time and I'm sure that mine is a lot like many, but I really felt the need to say thank you because it has really changed me. My husband told me the other day that in the 11 years that we have been married there has never been anything that has impacted me the way that Zumba® Fitness has. My self confidence has gone through the roof, I have so much more energy and I absolutely LOVE IT!!! Although I have not lost any weight yet, I am noticing that my body is changing all over. I know that I need to incorporate weights into my routine, which I'm going to start doing today and with diet too I will begin to see the changes that I want.
~Shawnna
I love this fitness class with Lisa. With her charisma and her energetic level being so high stopped me from smoking because I could not keep up with her movements. Her choreography to the songs is tremendous, and as an AFAA instructor myself, I have yet to see such a confident and dedicated instructor. Zumba® with FitLisa is the the best fitness class that myself & others are grateful to have within this area.
~Annette
Got back in my size 5 jeans today(and man do they look good)! I Haven't worn them in 4 yrs. :) I soooo LUV Zumba® and FitLisa!!
~Ali
I've been taking your class all summer while I was home for an internship. I returned to Auburn this week extremely excited they had Zumba® too. However, as you already know ITS NOT THE SAME. You, my friend, should be the ultimate trainer of all Zumba® instructors. I guess I'm ruined, because only YOUR Zumba® makes me happy. I realized tonight on your website that you do have a disclaimer warning of a tragedy just as this but its too late.Any advice to deal with the withdrawals??
Your Zumba® Follower For Life,
~Tanya
Just want to say I have been to 5 of your classes and I can already tell a difference, it is the hardest thing i have ever loved :} I am so not coordinated and I am 48 yrs old, BUT i will not be deterred and will keep coming. You have helped me with my confidence and self esteem so much...your positive energy is doing wonders for me, i appreciated you making all of us feel WE CAN DO THIS. THANK YOU !
~Jeanne
Lisa, thank you so much for your Zumba® classes. It is never the same routine and that is what I look forward to; a new challenge each week. You are so much fun teaching the class and I love your supportive enthusiasm throughout the entire hour. It has become an addiction for me and has truly made me feel so much better about myself.
~Brianne
I had the best time in Zumba® class last week. I'm 49 and trying to tone up as well as lose weight. I love to dance so Zumba® is great for me!! My coordination is a little (lot) off but I didn't feel embarrassed at all when I was facing one side of the room and everyone else was facing the opposite side! You make Zumba® so fun! You are a awesome encourager!! I plan to be there tonight. Thank you for taking the time to make me welcome in you class!!
~Kathyrn
I just had to let you know...I just got back from my monthly visit with my chiropractor and she said that she will kick my butt if I don't stick with Zumba®! She said that I have better side to side muscle tone in my mid back (target area for deep tissue muscle spasms...ouch!) than I have had in years! Woo Hoo!!!!
~Libby
I look forward to the classes, they are so much fun. You're a great instructor and I just wanted to say thank you, I appreciate you.
-Pam
For the record, I am not a dancer and was hesitate to take this type of class. Your class reaches out to everyone...and we all have fun with a great workout. During Mardi Gras I brought my childhood friends from Tampa and Denver to your Friday morning class and they had so much fun. They went back home... and trying to get Zumba® started in their areas and joined a Gym. Prior to your class they did not exercise, so you were a life changing event for them. Everyone is put on earth to touch people in some way and your gift to many is the gift of life.....or perhaps just their quality of life....but you are having a profound effect on many people. Again, thank you for you.
-Cynthia
I have been going to your classes since September 2008. I have lost 12 pounds and many inches around my waist and hips. I primarily attend your class 3 to 4 times per week, and have had the best results from any exercise class I have taken ever! I love Zumba®, its fun and its a great workout. I'm so grateful that you have the passion you do to helping women like me lose weight and have fun while we are at it. Thanks and God Bless You!
-Carmen
I just wanted to thank you! I have been to 2 of your classes and already i have lost 5lbs! I have a 3 year old son and i never have any free time to yourself, your class has given me that! I also have a heart condition and my cardiologists had told me to get more exercise to strengthen my heart, I told him about your class and its everything he wanted me to do! So, not only has your class helped me as a stressed out mom but it can also help me to build my heart muscles back to where they should be!!! I wanted to personally thank you for having your classes in my town!!
-Kayla
Your classes are wonderful- you can just feel the energy as soon as you walk in the door. I don't get to attend as often as I would like. Your class has helped my outlook on exercising. Now I look forward to the days that I can attend your class. Also, I have a desire to work out. I know that you've helped make this possible for me. Oh by the way, I kind of like that I'm 30 pounds lighter. Thanks again.
-Hope
I have taken the class 3 times now and it is awesome, I love it! I have never taken a class where I could not wait until the next time, I could take this class every day. Thank you for bringing Zumba® here, I see this as a part of my life for LIFE! You are awesome! I started taking the class with one lady from work, we have recruited two more and I think we have 2 or 3 more that will start coming. This class is truly the highlight of long stressful days! I have been feeling so great!
-Chantel
I just wanted to say Thank you for bringing Zumba® to this area. I have been attending your class twice a week in Daphne for a month now and have lost 10 pounds and drop 2 sizes. I have never found anything to work for me like Zumba® has. The results are awesome I can finally see a difference in my self and the changes I cant believe. I am hooked.
-Brandy
I thoroughly enjoyed the class last night! It was the first time that I have participated in an organized exercise program since I was a teenager. Although I was not able to make it through all of the songs, I plan on coming back for more. You are such a high energy instructor that it makes it fun. Thanks again.
-Libby
I'm a fan, I will be coming twice a week and my friends are interested too. Just so you know..........I tried Jazzercise, it was hard to follow and I felt awkward. This is so much fun, your moves are easy to follow and you are just a mini powerhouse of positive energy. What a joy!
--Donna
My new wetsuit went on sooo much better today than it did the day after Christmas! I could breathe better to! Zumba® is the best and you've motivated me to look forward to every class for an entire year.
--Sandy
I just wanted to tell you that I so enjoy your Zumba® class! I have only been going on Wed night in Loxley for 4 weeks but I am addicted. I look forward to each week. I have decided that I will start attending your Monday class as well because it is just so much fun that I don't think of it as exercise! So I just wanted to say thank you for doing what you do & keeping us motivated!!!!
--Kim
Before I found Zumba® with Lisa I was stuck in a rut of eating badly, not exercising (unless you count running to the fridge several times a day), and being disgusted for not returning to my pre-pregnancy size after 2 years. Well, thanks to Zumba® and Lisa's amazing energy I have almost reached my goal size! I have gone from a size 9 to a size 4 in just under 2 months! Thanks Lisa for encouraging me to get back on track and also for the awesome dance moves you put together for the Zumba® classes. You are keeping the Eastern Shore Sexy!
--Carla
Thanks for giving so many of us your terrific energy and a chance to remember that we are women and not just moms.
--Dale
I had a back injury years ago that caused chronic sciatica and hip pain. My work as a massage therapist makes it difficult for me to completely recover. Working out was a passion of mine until my injury, and for years I have been trying to find a workout that doesn't aggravate my situation. I HAVE FOUND IT! - Zumba® actually opens up my ribcage and hips to allow my muscles to relax. I get great relief from this exercise, not to mention the awesome toning, and wish I could take a class from Lisa everyday.
--Sandy
Zumba® is so much fun that you forget you're burning calories! The music and the variety of dances makes you feel like you're at a dance party instead of a workout class. I think it's a lot more enjoyable than walking on a treadmill and my energy level has definitely increased. Thanks Lisa for making this such an enjoyable and exciting class.
--Gail
I have never done any aerobics class before, so I was a little hesitant. My friend asked me to go and I thoroughly enjoyed myself! I am terribly uncoordinated but Lisa made me feel so comfortable and confident! For one hour I forgot about all my stressors and had fun! I have told several people about the class and can’t wait to go back!
--Tiffany
Since I started attending Zumba® Class one month ago, I have lost my last 10 pounds to reach my goal weight. Zumba® is so fun and I look forward to every class. The time goes by so fast and you don't even think about watching the clock! I'm so glad that Lisa has provided this to our community!! I'm so glad that I gave it a try. When I first read about Zumba®, I wasn't going to attempt because I can't dance but Zumba® has given me confidence to try. Whether you think that you can dance or not, everyone can do Zumba® !!! I do a great job at it too!!! Thanks again Lisa!!!
--Kenya
I'll be the first to admit I have no coordination or rhythm, but that hasn't stopped me from totally loving Zumba®. Lisa has so much energy and it spreads through the class. Thanks to Zumba®, I've lost five inches in one month! I can't wait to see what next month holds!
--Eva
I absolutely hate anything that has to do with exercise. Even dance classes can't seem to suck away my motivation to move off the couch. Zumba® has changed how I think about exercise and myself. I no longer loathe going to an exercise class, instead I'm trying to get everyone I know to come with me. Instead of thinking about muscles and perfect rhythm, I just let loose and let go of stress for an hour. I feel great and crave more!
--Amanda
I just wanted to voice my opinion and also say THANK YOU for bringing an awesome class my way! I have found myself to be more excited and energetic these last couple of months since I started taking your class. But what's crazy is that I can't stop thinking about Zumba® when I leave! I find myself humming to the music and secretly practicing those cool dance moves at work and home! Zumba® has also helped me to lose an extra 10 lbs. and some more inches! Thank you! I workout at Omni and Zumba® is just a bonus to help me lose weight and get healthy. So the more Zumba® I get, the happier I'll be when I finally reach my weight loss goal of 70 lbs! (FYI - I am down 22 lbs and almost 2 sizes smaller since Sept. '07) Thanks again Lisa! You're awesome!
--Christina
I absolutely love Zumba® ! I've taken exercise classes before and always got burned out and bored with them.....until Zumba®. There's no way you can get bored in this class because the music is great and Lisa is always bringing something new. Lisa has so much energy that it motivates me to just get up and move. I love to dance anyway (although I've never been very good at it) and the best part about this class is that NOBODY CARES if I can dance or not. Everyone is having so much fun that you forget you're even exercising at all. I'm finally getting my cardio in! Thanks Lisa! You rock!!
--Lisa M.
Last year I was diagnosed with cervical cancer. I cried for two days after hearing the word cancer and thinking I would not see my two beautiful children grow up! After having the hysterectomy I decided my eating habits were terrible but more importantly I was lazy. My job requires me to be on my feet most of the day as well as moving around a lot but not anything for a sustained period or "real exercise". So I joined Omni. Again, I had taken the first step but was reluctant to "exercise" because it's never been fun. I dreaded it. Until I found Zumba®. I have always LOVED to dance. No, I have never taken formal dance lessons even as a child but I've always enjoyed going out and dancing in clubs and so forth. So, Zumba® looked interesting. Well the rest is history! Zumba® has changed the way I look at exercise. I love it. I look forward to it. I don't dread it. After all, it's a party!! I like it so much that I tell everyone about it. And Lisa is soooo motivating. I love the email reminders because that helps me stay focused - like a friend saying, "Looking forward to seeing you tonight." The more I do it -the better I feel. Ten years ago I would have said my reason for exercising was to fit into my size 8 clothes. Well I haven't seen those size 8 clothes in a few years. But now it's not about size; it's about health. Yeah, a size 8 would be nice again. And if that happens, great! But I want to be able to play with my children, play with my husband, family and friends. And play with my grandchildren. Zumba® gives me energy I had lost. It helped me refocus my exercise goals and got me motivated. So thanks Lisa for introducing me to Zumba®. I owe my health partly to you!! Keep up the great classes!!!Zumba®
