  • I like this I will twick it to my flavor but thank you for the idea. Will use it tonight. Keep up the FABULOUS work.

  • IS HE LOSING THEM...

  • i love this..........This was my first impression of you..and when I saw this, I was in love with the song and your moves.....YOU inspired me....this is one of your very best from back in the day.......you look good, you move good and your sweetness comes thru...do not let the haters bring you down....because you bring so many people all over the world joy, "Popgarbage" has know idea who you are .........blessing, love and kindness.... forever Mr.Worldwide!!!!!

  • you are amazing! very inspiring! you'e a fantastic instructor.

  • one of my favourites, so easy to do and have fun with it :)

  • Unbelievable! I am so impressed by your dance skills and non-verbal cues! I depend so heavily on a head mic in all my classes that when I teach Zumba I still teach using verbal cues way more than Zumba needs! You were so easy to follow but didn't water down your own dancing ability in order to make it "easy" for your class--KUDOS to you Nathan! I am now a subscriber! (though I've used some of your "Get Me Bodied" choreo for a while now. Thanks! :)

  • MUUYYY BUEN TRABAJO (great Job)

  • Great combos and I, too, would like to take a class with you! Can you tell me why most Zumba instructors don't talk. I am a very talky teacher.

  • @saintsfan431 it's the Zumba formula, mainly visual cues so that people can really feel the music, the change in phrase/verse/chorus rather than hearing the instructor talk - I love it because I want to get lost in the music

  • I think that you are one of the best Zumba instructors in the world. You inspired to be a part of the Zumba network! Thanks Nathan!

  • I love this! An something that warms you up or cools you down that is actually fun and allows people to put their own flavuh into it! Thanks Nathan Blake!

  • look, i've taken everything from classical ballet to contemporary tap, including both zumba and various forms of hiphop. the moves you are using are so far removed from the latin bases of zumba that it isn't much of a leap to call it hip hop for fitness. there's a difference between salsa and pop and lock... that's all i'm saying.

  • i love your work - very inspiring! I'll try some of your moves for my zumba class :)

  • isn't this more like bad hip hop than zumba?

  • @popgarbage ..... This isn't Bad hip hop ..... it may be a very simple form of a fitness dance done to a Hip hop song ...but this was never meant to be that kind of Hip hop dance...Just meant for fun.... If you bothered to pay attention I used this for Zumba class and in Zumba all the dances are very simple. We do this so that the class will not be challenge that much with Choreography but can focus on just having fun and getting a workout while doing dancing. Try more before being so negative

  • @nathanblake

    AMEN!

    

  • @popgarbage ?? Why would you say something like this about a zumba class - there is a difference in dancing/performing VS taking zumba classes for a good & enjoyable workout made for all levels. I think Nateski did a terrific job in relating this to all dance and fitness levels.

  • Good Good pero kiero saber como se llama esa canción

  • its soo weird how  my zumba teacher does these same exact moves !

  • @mmaarriiaahh1 ..Ummm.. Youtube is where Zinstructers get choreo ideas..FYI

  • @coldmoonscout Oie me puedes decir como se llama esa canción ?

  • love the song and the moves

  • voll geschmeidig :D

    I LIKE SO MUCH YOUR JOB!!! CONGRATULATION FROM MEXICO.

  • I hope you can do this on Monday in Rotorua for us mate! :)

  • ese negroide baila bien

    

  • I kinda started rocking my shoulders in my shoulder, and then I decided doing Zumba at work isn't a good idea! Awesome routine.

  • Can't wait till you do the masterclass for Tracy next week! I'm so excited!

  • Really love your work out videos. I have started doing them everyday and this one of my favorites.. but love the belly dancing one also!!!

  • I like the way he claps before changing moves......it makes it easier to learn the routine;)

  • one of my Favs nathan

    

  • I think, this is the best I have ever seen

  • you are amazing@!...nuff said

  • My brother all I have to say is that you can dance ;D....Great job..

  • GREAT MOVES!!

    LOVE THE ENERGY AND INTENSITY

  • What's the name of the song that's playing right at the beginning?

  • @hislifesong Love like this from Faith evans i think it was 98 when it came out

  • love it :)

  • You are sooo good! I'm thinking about doing this song in my class for cool down and your chreo for this is fantastic!! Hope you don't mind if I borrow part of your moves in this video. Thanks! :D

  • love this!

  • WOW! love the moves! goes perfectly with the song :) nice job!

  • Wow!!! Girls you should be happy to have an amazing instructor like him.

  • Awesome!

  • AMAZINGGGG 

  • Omg! it's perfect. I love your chorographies !

  • AMAZING!!!!!!!

  • Great!!! Kiss from Brazil!!!!

  • Love this Nathan! 

  • Send me a message of where your located for classes.. I'd love to venture out and take some classes else where I LOVE teaching but i'm looking into making and taking others advice for trying to start my own studio.

  • i lve this vid would you mind if i borrowed this and teach this to our instructior in wausau WI?

  • GREAT!

  • i love nathan blakes choreo! you rock!

  • BEST """ love it

  • the pregnant girl on the far left looks hecka cute xD

  • GREAT JOB!

  • That was so freakin' awesome! You rock!

  • We use this song as our cool down an I absolutely love it! A little bird told me that Nathan is coming to Kumeu, Auckland, NZ soon???

  • This is sooooo fantastic..but I do think it would be too hard for a class to follow..classes need more repetition..this is very choreoghaphed.But my gosh this guy is amazing!!!!!!

  • Agreed he is really good but this could be a cool down more than a regular Zumba song.

    But he is good!

  • Awesome!!! One of the best routines I have seen!!! Pb :)

  • Nathan is the king!! LOve it

  • This is the kind of style I want to use when I teach...but I'm too afraid that my class will think it's too hard!!

  • @beachbabe20 Don't give up and don't underestimate your class! When I have something that is a little more on the difficult side, I take a minute or two to show them the steps slowly, without any music. Then I do the song twice in the same class, so they can start getting familiar with it faster. Try it and good luck!

  • LGlod bells you...

  • LOVE this routine Nathan!!!! Moves are the true feeling of the song! =) Amazing coreography! =)

  • Felt those moves!! Loved it!!Thank you Nathan. Zumba 2010 Convention?

  • Hey Nate. West Australian ZIN here. Taught this routine to a bunch of high school senior girls today. Apart from the normal self consciousness of this age when 'non dancers' (so cute!) they had a blast. Love your choreography! You were instrumental in getting me off my butt & getting licensed. :) Thank you so much for your generosity. xx

  • inspiring.

  • Sweet choreo once again, Nathan Blake!!

    Idea for the instructors: I know of a ZES who uses it as a Zumba battle in her master classes (splits the room in 2...one side does one chorus while the other steps it out and then they switch) --- it's sweet no matter what you do with it though :D

  • Nateski, I miss you! -Your S.

  • thats cool! this is the zumba i like ^_^

  • Awesome!!!! I would love to use this in class...only i would use it in the middle of class as a recovery after a major cardio peak...Thanks Nathan

    Trish..instructor in Md.
