    I barely started the class at my job and I have started to look forward to going. I use this class to warm my muscles up so that I can go jog after wards. I have began training for next years Houston Marathon, so this is a different routine which is GREAT!!!! It is fun and exciting to workout with other co-workers and just have fun and release stress....... Thanks for coming to our school.....:)

    I have so much fun at every class! It's intense and it's just what I need to keep me motivated. I've lost 15lbs since December! Each instructor is great and I know when I walk in I'm welcome. Thank you Zumba Family.

    I've been attending Zumba class for about 3 months now, and I am totally hooked! I've taken many Zumba classes, and Jerry and Tropa Zumba, are far superior to all others. It's great cardiovascular work with a little strength training (squats and abs) mixed in. It's great for the beginner and the advanced. You can take it as low impact or as high impact as you want. At the end, I guarantee you will be dripping with sweat and thinking, "Was that really exercise? I had so much fun, that can't be exercise!" If you are looking for a class to work off that Thanksgiving turkey, you have to at least try Jerry's Zumba class. Much like that Thanksgiving feast, I guarantee you will go back for seconds!

    Jerry's class is amazing and so very fun. Not a workout....it's a party!! He just started teaching his class here at the Marathon Oil Tower and it's infectious. I look forward to Tuesdays to be able to shake my romp and move my hips! We need this class at least twice a week though. It's so so fun. We Love Jerry! Zumba lives up to the hype...

    I have been attending classes with Jerry for almost 2 months. All I can say is that it has been the best workout I have ever tried in my life. I am always looking forward to going to class, since the music is great and the routines are awesome !!. Jerry and the tropa are very friendly and make everyone one feel part of the tropa zumba family. I highly recommend zumba with Jerry. I think he is one of the best instructors (if not the best!) in Houston. Keep it up Jerry!!!

    This is the best work out ever. I have done Zumba for a couple years I stated in Orlando. and Jerry and the whole group are great. really intense but fun. Everyone is approachable and friendly it feels like a familly. I love it. Everyone should try it. Jerry is great if he does not get you moving noone will.

    I took an introductory class today at Dancing City at Fondren/Westheimer. I used to love to go out Latin dancing before I had two kids and got completely out of shape/sedentary. I don't like gyms, and have never taken any kind of class except for yoga. I LOVED this class (and it kicked my behind in terms of cardio and abs workout), but it was really, really fun and the music was great. It didn't feel like "work" the way that doing an hour on my treadmill does. Everyone was really nice and welcoming. The energy and fun was very contagious, and I definitely caught it! I am going to take these classes at least 2-3 times a week, and I am already looking forward to next Tuesday.

    Hi cratgirl, I work in the Bellaire CVX office and we don't have Zumba. I was working in the downtown office in Feb 2008 and tried the zumba class. I love the music and it was a good workout. So I did a search for Zumba in Houston and found out about Jerry's class. I joined Jerry's Tropa Zumba class and I went every day during the first week. It's nowhere near my house but I really look forward to going, so it's worth it. I wish they would start a zumba class at our Bellaire office. I wish I could have gone to the Chevron one when Jerry was teaching. Their website is "tropazumba" . This website won't let me put the link.

    I AM SO BUMMED! I just learned the Zumba class Jerry teaches at the Chevron Fitness Center is cancelled! This is a huge loss. Your class has been THE most popular since the fitness center opened. It is the highlight of many people's workout week! I hope you will come back and share your awesome talent with us. You are an amazing teacher with a huge following - this is a very sad day for me. :-(

    The only type of exercise I was ever able to stick to was kick boxing but had to stop going because the place went out of business. I was looking online for another kick boxing place and ran across Zumba with Jerry so I figured I would check it out. I went with a coworker the first time and we absolutely LOVED IT!!! I could not believe how exciting and FUN was to be there, the instructors are full of energy and it's contagious, as soon as we came in Jerry made it a point to come up to us and introduce himself as well as his co-instructors, he took the time to explain to us how everything works and what we can expect from it. We have been going for 3 weeks and it's been an amazing experience, we always look forward to going to class, Jerry has put a lot of time and effort into making the steps easy to follow and at the same time they really work every single muscle on your body, I feel muscles now that I did not know existed!!! Thanks Jerry what you?ve done here is truly amazing!!!... Read more

    I absolutely LOOOOOVEEEE Zumba with Jerry - it is always the highlight of my very busy week to get to go to Zumba 3x/week! I have never really been too good at sticking to something that makes me sweat - but Jerry has truly turned me around. I love the entertainment in the class - the laughs, the energy, the moves make everything seem so worthwhile - even when the moves are hard and I feel silly. I still have a wonderful time and the classes keep getting bigger! Thanks Jerry for bringing Zumba into our lives! We're so happy to have you and hope you keep bringing us more new and exciting latin moves!

    My husband and I are hooked! Jerry's the best and he rocks! We always look forward to go to our zumba class and strut our moves :) It's the highlight of our day and we get extra energy after the class. It's like having a party 3 times a week. Not to mention the nicest people in class and the best choreography & best choice of music. We definitely recommend Zumba with Jerry to everyone! FUN FUN FUN !

    Zumba with Jerry has truly been an eye-opener as well as a "hip-opener" for me. As a martial arts instructor, I admit I was skeptical at first since a man booty shakin to latin music scares the hell out of me. But after the first session I was hooked. Thanks to my gorgeous and loving wife, I was introduced to a whole new dimension of fun and fitness. Zumba has worked wonders to my punching and kicking abilities. One of the perks doing Zumba is my hips were loosened up which is totally necessary to deliver fast and explosive kicks and punches. Another perk is being able to spend good quality time with my wife during the class just having fun. Each class is a party really. It does not feel like a class at all because everybody is having so much fun.

    This is my first-time message ever! I just wanted to write my review because I really love this class, It has been a great experience for me. After years of being inactive, I am so happy to finally be doing some cardio and getting in shape, I have been doing Zumba with Jerry for about 3 months now and I am loving it. I see the changes in the way my clothes fit, I can actually walk up a flight of stairs and not feel like I am about to pass out. The dancing and the music are great. The steps are easy and you learn how to get down and dirty, which is always a plus.

    I have a confession to make. Listen Up! I've never enjoyed dying sooooo much. Jerry's Zumba class is GRRRRRRR-EAT !!!! The steps he use in the class are easy to catch on and actually do for a "Fist Timer Senior Citizen". Trust me, you will work up a sweat. The sad thing for me is that I will have to give up my weight training because I do not want to, I refuse to give up Zoom Zoom Zumba. Teach me too much Jerry, I might take over the class. <<<<< NOT>>>>>

    Zumba with Jerry is one of the most enjoyable classes I have ever taken. Jerry's enthusiasm is contagious, and the music is so irresistable that you can't help but move! The workout is a challenge and burns a ton of calories, but it doesn't seem so hard because it's so much fun. The whole class laughs and smiles through the total workout. Jerry makes the moves look easy and gives enough instruction so that even a beginner can catch on quickly. If you love to dance, you will love this class! And a plus is Jerry is super hot! You'll find yourself counting down the minutes to the next class, guaranteed!

    If you haven't taken Jerry's Zumba class, you are missing not only the best fitness program in Houston, but a vibrant, highly motivating instructor who is beyond compare. I can't get enough of Zumba! I love it so much I've been taking his class twice in the same day. And its truly paying off....I am extremely satisfied with the results in my body and I feel confident in a two piece, something I haven't been able to do since I gave birth to my son. Also, everyone who attends Jerry's class is very friendly and truly enjoys dancing and grooving to the sounds of the passionate Latin music. The best way I can describe this class is FUN! FUN! FUN! Come try it out and I promise you'll fall in love with it just like me.

    Latin influenced aerobics class emphasizes fun just as much as fitness.

    The absolute best. Jerry is the bomb. He is great at making exercise fun and don't worry if you don't think you can do this. You can. He helps you and makes it fun. I felt so fab after this class, I am still moving with the capital A for Attitude. Luv it. And have lost weight. Come dance (so sorry exercise) with us. Charley

    Zumba, Zumba, Zumba rings in my ears everyday. I just love Zumba I can't think of ever having so much fun while I'm "excersing". Not only am I losing weight and moving muscles I have never moved before it's fun! I love the insturctor; Jerry is so patient with his class. Jerry is also passionate about his class, how people move, how people move and just getting into the rythm. I have no rythm and Zumba has taught me to dance salsa, gave me the edge to go out there and "just do it".. and be the sexiest on the floor.

    Zumba with Jerry is the best exercise class I've ever taken! The class is lots of fun and an amazing workout.

    Today was my first workout after having my son three months ago and I have to say- it was a great experience. I was dreading getting back to work but then I found out my company was opening a brand new fitness center with classes like pilates, yoga, and my new favorite class, ZUMBA. What a wonderful experience- Zumba with Jerry was fun, energetic, and enjoyable. This is every woman's (and new mommy's) dream, to work out and HAVE FUN!! I loved the steps, the energy, and the instructor. Jerry had great charisma and really kept us moving. I know this was only my first time, but I will be returning to hopefully become an experienced zumbette! I highly recommend this class if you want a head to toe work out and if you want to have a good time while working out. It tops any aerobics or cardio class I've ever taken...believe me, I have taken them all. I used to dance when I was younger and this class reminded me of how fun dancing was- and how it paid off- I had a great body back then ... Read more

    What can I say? I love taking Zumba with Jerry! I have been working out with Jerry for over a year now and have seen great results. When you do Zumba with Jerry you use muscles you never knew you had. Jerry coaches newbies through the steps and does his best to make you feel comfortable with the moves. Most classes are a mixture of newbies and veteran Zumbettes. :D At the end of the class he leads the class through a killer ab workout. I love this class so much I arrange my travel schedule around the classes as much as possible. Whenever I have guests come in from out of town I bring them to class with me. They all love the class and wish they could take Jerry home with them. I have taken Zumba with other instructors and it is just not the same. No one has the intensity and charisma that Jerry does. He really believes in helping people achieve their fitness goals. If you want a class where the instructor is tuned into his students, you should definitely give Jerry?s c... Read more

    When I first heard about Zumba, I admit I was dubious. "latin aerobics? whatever..." is what I said to myself. But then I tried it, and I was hooked from the first day. Jerry is the most fun fitness instructor I have ever encountered, and the class itself is great. I've been taking Zumba now for almost three years, and I had never enjoyed any kind of aerobics class before - ever. I've taken the Zumba class everywhere that Jerry has taught it, because he's just the best. I've even tried taking the Zumba class with other instructors because it's so fun and such a good workout, but I have to say, no one leads a Zumba class like Jerry. You can tell that he was taught by Beto, the guy who invented Zumba, because it's just like the DVD's, only better. Anyone else I've ever seen teach the class just lacks that passion and spirit. It's so not authentic. I strongly recommend to anyone who is looking for something fun and different to add to their workout routine to try Zumba. You wi... Read more

    Zumba with Jerry is the most fun you will have sweaty in the city. I have been a 'Zumbette' for over two years now and I just can't get enough!!! I have never before found a workout that burns as many calorie and is as much fun as this class. When I started I didn't know a thing about salsa dancing and last month I went to Costa Rica. Lets just say I had an audience of Costa Rican boys while I was out on the dance floor!!! WHEW! I have tried a couple other Zumba classes in Houston and they don't even COMPARE to what Jerry has got going on. It is zexy, fun, outrageous, HOTT, awesome and latin. I can't say enough about it!!! ZUMBA ROCKS!

    Just want to thank all the people that have been very supportive and helped bring Zumba to life in Houston. I am one of the veteran instructors. Back when I got certified, there were only about 200 of us (I couldn't even get a job because nobody knew what it was). That was about 4 years ago. Now, it is estimated at over 8,000 worldwide. It is because of the support that I have gotten in establishing myself as a reputable instructor first in Houston, followed by Miami Beach, El Paso, and back in Houston that I have been persistent and determined to bring this class to people of all ages and abilities. With all the chanting and cheering and energy that you all bring to class, this, by far, has been the most energetic, enthusiastic, and rewarding place that I have ever been. See you all in class, Jerry Maese Zumba Instructor
