Steps Above

I love this place! I’ve only been in with one instructor, Sarita, and she’s awesome. Love the energy, love the music, love the moves. I had taken Zumba classes at a few other locations and they don’t compare.
You can’t beat the prices. If you’re in the local area and are looking for somewhere to workout for the night, please stop by. Brink water! You’ll need it.

Steps Above is amazing. AMAZING. My first Zumba experience was with Steps above, and I quickly became a regular. Unfortunately, I recently moved out of the area and can no longer attend classes here regularly. I have tried several places closer to my new home. Let me tell you, NOTHING beats Zumba at Steps Above. Nothing beats the price. Nothing beats the intensity. Nothing beats the energy that the instructors bring to that stage.
I preferred Mauricio’s classes, but all of the instructors were amazing. You know you’re getting a good workout when your very fit instructors are dripping sweat. They put their hearts into it, and you can tell. A lot of the instructors feed off the energy of the class, so the more excited you are, the better your class is going to be.
The music is awesome, and I always feel that I am just there having a good time. I can’t say enough good things about the instructors. They’re great at what they do. If you’re considering Zumba as a fun way to work out, TRY Steps Above. It’s a fun workout in a fantastic, upbeat environment.
I may have moved, but every time I am back in this area, I will be back in the Steps Above studio.

I live right next to The Steps Above in woodbridge, VA but was never interested until two weeks ago. I started jogging near my neiborhood and I came across zumba and I came in and saw how excited it was and how the people were having fun with the class so I ended up joiningn in. I really love it, the instructers are so energetic and they keep you so motivated. I just hope I can start lossing some weight since I gave up my jogging for zumba classes.

I’m a regular at Steps Above, and it’s so much fun! Friendly staff and energetic instructors make everyone feel comfortable. Very spacious, lots of parking, great price for a great workout. They offer classes to fit any schedule.

Went to Zumba here a couple times – pretty awesome! Large floor space for dancing… no need to crash into anything. Just $ 5 for drop-​in Zumba classes… and there are discounts if you buy passes for more than 1 class. Great music, etc etc. I heard your experience depends on the instructor, but there are many, so you can pick and choose which one (s) you go to!
My only complaints are the poles that kinda make it hard to see the instructor – but just stand clear of them from the beginning and you’ll be fine. It’s also a bit difficult to find the first time. There arent huge signs or anything… but there’s a little sandwich board on the outside that says Zumba. It’s in the shopping center in the back – close to the corner… to the right of the grocery store? Parking everywhere!
**some points will vary by instructor**
Pros
* Parking everywhere
* Large space to work with (if the class isn’t too full)
* Great variety of music/​dance styles
* Pretty inexpensive! Especially if you get the passes for multiple classes (that rhymed!)
Cons
* Poles that limit your view of the stage/​instructor
* Fans only in the front… gets hot
* Random people on the sides watching you/​the next class can stand RIGHT THERE
* Set your bag/​beverage on a floor somewhere and run to it when you need it…
* The acoustics are not that great
* Impersonal (usually classes like these are)
