No I'm not pregnant but just asking the question

Is Zumba safe to do while pregnant? I know you wouldn't go as hard out like you would do if your not pregnant.

Not sure, I wouldn't take it up if you were pregnant but I don't see why you couldn't carry on if you were. Just take it low impact & don't do any twisting cause your ligaments are soft.

I think some places do a special low impact/slower version for older people and pregnant women? I know we have some of them here in NP.

The good thing with zumba is you can adapt it to suit what you feel comfy with. I've recently stopped going though as I can't keep up any more and found I'm getting short of breath .

Zumba Gold is the class you'll be looking for.
