Dancing sensually to sensual music is stil sensual regardless who attends.

You ok with a group of brothers watching the DVDS?

If they want to exercise.

And we can't be sensual?

I didn't realize that was a sin.

What might be deemed "sensual" are the music, energetic choreography, modern hip-hop and latin songs used in the class and the apparel but no more sensual than yoga ... or shockamooing wildly.
I used to do Zumba quite a bit. Really enjoyed it. And it helped me tone up and I lost almost 20 pounds during the short period I was doing it. I also learned some "moves". lol

If he's watching it to do the exercise, then sure.

If he's hiding in the bedroom with the door shut watching it - then it's not the Zumba that's the problem.

Are you okay with your husband walking in the mall? There's as much sensual stuff he'll see there as exercising with Zumba.

Re: Zumba??

Trust me, your local Zumba class isn't very sensual.

Why in the world would a man be sitting around watching an exercise class or video anyway? If he's DOING the video or class, he's going to be working out too hard himself to be worried about what anyone else is doing. If he's not DOING it, then why is he just watching it?

Oh, and the class I saw had just music, no words.

First of all, being "sensual" isn't wrong in and of itself. And I would feel perfectly comfortable learning "moves" with a group of women.

Secondly, if a group of "brothers" puts in a zumba DVD just so they can watch it and drool over the women? That's wrong. That's their problem; not mine.

I would be uncomfortable in a mixed gender setting. Otherwise; not a problem.

I have a feeling if some guy was just sitting and staring at all the women exercising, he'd be asked to leave, no matter what sort of class it was.
