Music that makes me move.... Part 1

I realized while putting together my favorites, that Pitbull seems to dominate in what I call "Zumba songs." There are "zumba songs" (those I would imagine come from some sort of cheesy CD issued by Zumba) and then there are shake your booty songs (the ones that you can't listen to without envisioning the dance your favorite zumba instructor has choreographed it to).

In fact those songs are so bootylicious, that I can't bring myself to just listen to them without dancing (yes, in the privacy of my own home or car of course).

I call this Part 1 because I wanted to share some without giving them all away in one setting. Ok, really, I was just too lazy to look them all up. There are at least 5 more that I just adore dancing to.

So, in no particular order, or by no association to any of my particularly favorite Zumba instructors (see previous post), I give to you.... songs that make Zumba well.... Zumba!

Andrea's favorite "Shake Your Booty Songs"
1. Danza Kuduro by Don Omar & Lucenzo
2. Hey Baby by Pitbull
3. Hips Don't Lie by Shakura
4. Rock That Body by Black Eyed Peas
5. I Gotta Feeling by Black Eyed Peas
6. Boom Boom Pow by Black Eyed Peas
7. I Love Salsa by N'Kiabe
8. Sexy and I Know It by LMFAO
9. Rude Boy by Rihanna
10. Turnin Me On by Keri Hilson
11. Sexy Movimiento by Wisin &Yandel

And a final one that I used to grumble through in class but I've learned to love (ok like). I discovered that I liked it a lot more after losing 45 pounds as it involves a lot of jumping :) It is Raise Your Glass by Pink.

Note: I hope my favorite Zumba teachers don't shoot me for giving away any Zumba secrets by sharing some of their play lists with you. If you like these songs, come with me to class!! :)
