Someone designated “local guide” gave a 3 star review had some criticisms and this post is a rebuttal. She speaks some truth and some misperceptions. Wednesday night class and some of the other classes might discourage people with little or no dance background. Knowing some basic Latin dance steps would be extremely helpful. It is also true that the place attracts some awesome dancing talent among the attendees. A few have Zumba shoes. I tend to take the second row and marvel at the beautiful flourishes and expertise the dancers on the first row display. There are also plenty of beginners in the back who manage somehow. No one judges.Cathy uses a technique common among to many Zumba instructors. She demonstrates a move that is expected go on for several repetitions and then stops. She might give hand cues in such cases. She might wander among the crowd to make everyone feel included. The idea is to help develop the muscle-body memory. This is very helpful since that’s one of my weak points. My first Zumba teacher didn’t do that at all. She’s fantastic, but that isn’t her thing.Cathy does give hand signals effectively just as every other Zumba teacher I know. A few instructors out there do like to give verbal cues but that’s a personal choice. Here the music is too loud and the studio too well attended for verbal cues to work. In Zumba instructor training non-verbal cues are emphasized.I quit going to one Zumba teacher in Texas who I personally love because she dumbed down the moves too much. If I pick up a choreo on the first try, I’ll be bored. But, a Zumba class for beginners might be something to consider at this venue.I’ve been 4 similar dance/Zumba studios and the experience has been similar. I give high marks to all the Zumba instructors as well as Cathy. The style is similar. I’ve found that the Zumba sessions given in the various health club franchises are generally simpler and less strenuous, so that might be a better option for some. Pick your style.

Wednesday Zumba not for beginners. The instructor didn’t use any verbal cues and stopped dancing frequently to walk around. The whole class knew all the moves and wearing Zumba brand gear head to toe. I’ve been to many classes, even all in Spanish, and never had a harder time following the moves. Maybe the classes should be labeled by levels. People were nice and the regulars were having a great time. They take videos during the class and post on social media without asking.

I've had such a good time at CM's Fitness & Dance studio center in Richfield, MN. I went through the basic Zumba training with Kelly Bullard here. This Fitness&Dance center hosted this Zumba event. It is official, I'm a Zumba instructor now. I had such a pleasure meeting Cathy Molinett the owner of CM's Fitness and Dance. This is a great place with awesome people and amazing atmosphere. Zumba rocks! Thank you and best wishes!
