Hey Guys!
I have been doing Zumba for a long time but due to hip surgery I am wanting to try Aqua Zumba.
Has anyone tried it? Do you find you get the same workout as regular Zumba?
Thanks!!

I have done aqua qymnastics/ aerobics when I am on vacation and want to excercise. I don't know if it is comparable to water zumba?
I find it different than normal zumba. I am always out of breath during zumba but not during water zumba. You do still train your muscles as much as during normal zumba is my experience.

I only do it when I am on vacation and stay on a camping. There is always an animation team for kids, but they also offer activities for adults. In the swimming pool they will do a sort of dance/ combination of steps, turning and arm waving and because of the water you experience resistance training. It is fun to do and to stay active during my vacations, but I don't think you will build up a lot of muscles or conditions. Just to keep your body moving, so when your back home you don't have to start building up your strength and cardio.

I do Aqua Zumba at least once a week. It is a blast! As with all water/aqua classes, you get out of it what ever you put in. You can just go for fun or you can bust your butt and get a great workout. Bonus is that nobody can see what's going on under the water so you are as funky & coordinated as you want to believe!
Also, I have cardiac and knee issues.

I do water aerobics 5 days a week for 50 minutes each time. Been doing it for 10 weeks now. I've lost 3.5 inches on my thighs, 2 on my waist, and 3 on my hips. Two years ago I had foot and knee issues so walking reduced me to tears within 5 minutes. Exercise in water is a huge help!! It's far lower impact than zumba but it's a great strengthening and toning workout.
