I took Nannette's virtual class, and it was fun, and had my heart rate going. I can't always make it, but, now and then I can. See you soon

Zumba with Nannette has helped me lose 8lbs and gave my legs excellent tone so far in my quest to shape up before the new year!!! Before I sound like an infomercial... let me back up by saying Nannette was recommended to me by a friend who also happens to be Zumba instructor. I have always been active but was interested in adding a sports that's more feminine i.e. different from what I'm currently doing. Nannette's classes are attended by all walks of life... ranging from ladies who've done dance since they were 3, to those who just want to shake their booty. I have done dance based aerobic classes at gyms before and felt quite pressured to look good/ do the choreography well... but this is totally NOT the case in Nannette's classes. She adjusts to the class' level and gives plenty of encouragement (without coming across cheesy). I am only a few weeks in but am having a GREAT time. A shame that Nannette only teaches one class in SF each week - at the Mission's Cellspace (Bryant/ 19th), Sat 10:30a. Her other classes are based in Hercules CA area. Highly recommended!!! read more

Zumba with Nannette Vides - Fitness & Instruction Near Me - San Francisco, California

My first ever Zumba experience was a Saturday morning class with Nannette. I was hesitant to go as I've never tried zumba and to my surprise ended up having such a fun time! I was hooked. Nannette's positive energy is contagious and everyone in the class is super enthusiastic and helpful. The music varies from beat filled songs to mellower sounds which give you a hellouva workout focusing on strengthening muscles. Of course you're encouraged to go at your own pace. Now that I work weekends I can't take her class regularly. I've tried other Zumba classes to fit my schedule but honestly nothing compares to this one! read more

This class is a lot of fun. I started about 5 months ago and it has been good for me on several fronts. I like the class the Nanette teaches because it is fun, casual, but as well demanding. I like the class because you are just constantly moving your arms and legs and you get an awesome workout. Nannette very nice and always makes all attendees feel welcome and you never get the feeling that if you were to get tired and want to stop that would be a bad thing. I think in group exercise environments this is key and she is quite cognizant of this as an instructor. I am not Zumba pro or anything like that I just wanted something to compliment my existing workout of running, swimming and playing tennis and Zumba fits the bill. I think if you are looking for a class that is fun and caters to a wide diversity of students then I would highly recommend this class. read more

I attended a Zumba class with Nannette three years ago & have not stopped going to her class ever since. She is fun, positive & up beat. You can take her class & make it high or low impact as you want it to be. And her steps are easy to learn, especially if you're at all familiar with Latin dance. If you're not, don't worry; she teaches you step by step. Nannette truly does make Zumba not seem like a workout at all, and after you learn the steps there's nothing that says you can't take your favorite Latin music and create your own Zumba routine. :) read more

I've been taking classes with Nanette for about a year now. Classes are GREAT! Such a good workout, and a lot of fun. I find myself smiling and sweating more than I anticipate. Nanette is a wonderful teacher, - energetic, nonjudgmental, supportive, and fun. The folks in the class are all different ages and fitness levels. Everyone is welcome. Just come and join in (no need to have any experience or skills). The class is usually all (or mostly) women, but men are more than welcome to attend. Just know that you'll be in the minority. A few times substitute teachers have filled in for Nanette when she can't make it, and I must admit that I haven't enjoyed their classes. It's possible that I don't really like Zumba, - I just like classes with Nanette! Zumba probably isn't good for folks w/ bad knees. read more

Viva la Nannette! If you are looking for an 'experience' while you burn calories, Zumba is the way to 'rock it'. Her unique style of afro-cuban rhythms makes you want to break out into a sweat and scream. Your hips begin to do things you could only imagine before. At the beginning of the class, you look at your watch and ask yourself...'can I make it for an entire hour?' And then you look again (after several swigs of bottled water that she constantly encourages you to bring) and the hour is up. Her music makes you wanna move, her spirit is upbeat and lighthearted and her dance technique makes you think you are in Brazil. Come join the Zumba party! It's amazing for your mind, yuor body and your soul. Dr. DIVA A Zumbista since 2009! read more

Nannette is Hottest Zumba Chica in SF! Her class Saturday mornings at CELLspace in the mission is always filled with diverse class members of all races, ages and body types, and Nannette gets us ALL shakin' it! You hardly notice how hard you're sweating, it's so fun... And I always love to watch Nannete dance: Caliente! read more

I've tried other Zumba classes and they were either much too Latin dance-oriented or didn't have enough variety (or music) to keep me interested. Nanette's class is a fantastic mix-enough dance moves to keep it interesting and enough exercise to make a difference-I am sweating after the session. The dance moves are not intimidating-Nanette makes you feel like you are doing fantastic. You can do the moves at whatever level you want. I can see a difference in my flexibility, sense of balance and coordination in the year that I've been taking her class-she points out when a dance move is working the core or balance. And the music can be Latin, current music, oldies from the 50-60's-the hour goes by so quickly partly because the music is so good! And Nanette is the other reason the hour goes by so quickly-she has great positive energy-makes everyone feel welcome. I look forward to her class Saturday mornings in SF. I wish she had a few more classes in the city that I could attend. read more

Nanette is both creative and funny. I often have a smile on my face during her class, even when it is challenging for me. I can't imagine that there is a better Zumba instructor out there. She really inspired me to start taking classes on a regular basis. read more

I started her classes 3 months ago. The second I walked in she introduced herself with her radiant smile and personality. Well I am totally addicted. I went from not working out to 5 hours a week! I am losing weight and my body feels firmer. The music is really good. Nanette is a true dancer with great choreographed dances. It's obvious she loves her job and the positive vibe makes every class a joy. The dances are not too complicated at all. But they will make you sweat. What are you waiting for? This instructor will show you all the amazing things you can do! Thank you so much Nannette. read more

Nannette is simply the best at what she does-her class at 10:30 am on Saturdays at Cell Space is a highlight of my week. She is truly one of a kind with regard to choreography, energy and positivity. Nannette is detailed in a way that other instructors are not-she gets you into muscles you didn't know you had. She chooses a diverse range of music that is fun and inspirational. Whether your goal is to lose weight or to get cardio, you will enjoy every step of the way with Nannette! read more

I love taking Zumba with Nanette! She has a lot of energy and really inspires you to push harder. Since I have been going to Zumba, I see a difference in my body. Thanks Nanette! read more

Zumba is a fun way to get a great workout and Nanette does an awesome job of keeping everyone moving and feeling good!

Nannette was the first Zumba teacher I had in Orinda. I loved her and was so disappointed when she had to cancel this class to concentrate on classes closer to where she lives. I have had several other teachers since but I still love Nannette. She was always positive, was energetic, and easily responded to the needs of the total class while at the same time being aware of individual needs. I don't think anyone would be disappointed in her classes. She's such an upbeat person besides being such an expert at teaching Zumba. I think she's tops!!!! read more

I look forwarded to every Saturday morning at the Cell Space to take Nanette's Zumba class. Every week is a difference routine and the music is always fun and inspirational. read more

I loved the class and Nannette!! I took my first Zumba class ever with Nannette. I was a little hesitant because I did not know what to expect. I am 24 and wanted to get a great work out and did not want to look ridiculous. I did not want the class to end. I had a lot of fun and got a great workout doing it. Nennette was so fun and helpful, she made me feel so comfortable. I will definitely be taking the class again. read more

I started zumba with Nannette over a year ago and she is by far my favorite teacher even though I have moved from the Bay area now and have experienced several other teachers. My first lesson, I had so much fun and laughed the whole time. She always has new and exciting songs to try and I always sweat! Definitely recommend her read more

We, Chicanos/Latinos in Health Education at UCSF hired Nannette to provide Zumba dancing for children and families at a health event at Cesar Chavez Elementary School in the Mission. She was affordable and wonderful with the children. We hired her again for a second event and some families came back because they knew she would be leading Zumba! We plan to bring her back for another community health event in the Fall 2013. Thank you Nanette for being so awesome! read more
