Is it normal that i am VERY jealous from those who dance ZUMBA at the Gym ?, because i know that i can't dance like them , and VERY jealous of one of the Gym Traniers because she's like 10 in one , she dances Body jam , latin , zumba and does body combat , body attack , hips and abs ,and cycling among other things , and she does them PERFECTLY ,not only that it's like she has great writing skills as well ,she has a couple of blogs with very nice writings , she is also very very smart and is sociable (can she be more perfect !) I am very jealous of her and the people who dance in the gym , especially Zumba , they are all cool and know how to dance and the music is cool with thier cool fit bodies and cool clothes , while i just go do weights or walk on the treadmill with my unfit body .

    haha i can picture them dancing away and you giving them the evil eye from the dark corner lol anyway, join them! my goodness girl you should try doing it and join the fun who knows you might have the moves better than them:)

    I used to enviously watch the gymnastic girls come and take over the gym, id be lifting weights while they would be doing the full splits, and i said to myself fcuk it if they can do it why cant i, so i practiced and stretched little by little,and after 4 months, i can now do the full splits and bend twist and flex my body in so many ways

    but yeah its pretty normal to check out other ppl at the gym and wish to be/look like them

    I'm sure those women didn't wake up one morning an know how to Zumba or the other stuff you are envying. I'm sure the put a lot of practice. You can be good at what ever you put your mind to. Practice and dedication.

    I do Zumba, have always loved dancing so have always been great at it, not to make me sound big headed. But I made my friends, who can't dance at all and who refused to come Zumba, to join and they honestly have learned some great moves and have started to have a rhythm... If you are envious do something about it, don't stand staring there feeling sorry for yourself. You think the number '10' girl you described does all those things by standing around being envious of other people? No. She works her ass off!

    So get a move in and get dancing missy

      I did try and infact i looked like an idiot , didn't know how to do the right moves because Zumba is so quick ! , didn't dress properly like i wore dark clothes instead of colourful and joyful clothes,i gained weight so i didn't look fit while dancing, even though i entered the class with the idea/thought that i'll have fun and enjoy myself , but i looked serious and sad and annoyed , instead of cool and spontanious who doesn't care what people think and is gonna dance and enjoy herself .Do you think if i tried the next time i'll know how to do the very fast moves correctly ? , or because i sucked the first time then i'll always suck ?!

        I don't believe you did bad AT ALL! Honestly, when everyone looks at themselves dancing they dont perceive themselves as doing a good job, and if you think you have 'gained' weight you may have just gained muscle, muscle is heavier than fat.

        And you only have done it once and of course its going t be very tricky, its something you are Not use too. Even though i catch Dance moves quitw rather quickly the fist few times were quite tricky for me too so no you don't suck haha. Honestly, if you are struggling with the moves go in YouTube and there are some videos for some step by step moves and you can start from there. Let me tell you something, there are girls in my class who do Zumba who are 16 stone and over and we have middle aged women there too... Most of e time it's about laughing when you don't get it right. I Fell on the floor right in the middle of dancing and my friend just stopped and started laughing at me and I laughed back because it was very funy. When stuff like that happens in life, you should laugh at it not hate it. Someone once said, you grow up when you have your first laugh with yourself hehe.

        Think more positive and you are trying your best so you should be more than happy with yourself, not a lot of people have the strength or confidence to do that, so you should be proud of yourself.

        Talk to other girls in there, ask them if they could show you a move you didn't understand, it would make your experience so much fun xx

          I don't have the confidence and the extrovertness and the bubbly happy crazy (in a good way ) attitude inorder for me to dance carelessly infront of a crowd!, that's why i envy all those who dance zumba ,including the instructors !

            come on, i dont believ that. Honestly honey, just go and have fun, you seriously are losing NOTHING.

            It will take a little getting use to and its a matter of pushing through those negative and 'hopeless' barriers. All in good ttime hun, just don't give up just yet... all in good time you will see :) xx

    Yea I know how you feel. I tried Zumba and for me it was very hard and I couldn't keep up, and was very jealous of the other people. Just try it, but stay in the front and you have to keep practicing it, and going to it if you want to be good at it! All in all it's pretty fun!

    If I see the word jealous one more time! Ugh. I know its hard to accept some things when others seem better, but all you can do about it is try harder and eventually youl be up the level that you put them on. I think its healthier to envy people, not to be jealous of them. Your all that's holding you back from having others envy you.
