Would you Zumba on an 18th-floor hotel helipad in L.A.?

If you like to stay fit on the road, or you live in Los Angeles -- or you just want a total thrill, come to the Inter Continental Century City for a Zumba exercise class on its helipad -- on the 18th floor.   You'll overlook Century City's shiny triangle towers and the Hollywood Hills.  If you're daring enough to walk towards the edge of the helipad, you can look down at Fox movie studios, including its old-fashioned New York street scene.  All of us in the group were blown away by the experience.  "Nothing can top it," says Laura Contreras of Sacramento, who tried Zumba for the first time Thursday.   "It was the most awesome experience to be 18 stories up on a helipad."  You can try the Zumba class whether you're staying at this busy hotel or not.  The class is free for guests.  For non-guests, it's still a bargain: $15, which includes valet parking and use of the hotel spa's locker room with a small sauna and steam room.  For $40, you'll also gain access to the hotel's large fitness center, large outdoor pool and outdoor jacuzzi.   The hotel also offers yoga classes on the helipad in the morning, which would also be special.  But personally, I found the intensity of the Zumba workout, world music ranging from samba to cumbia, and the afternoon sunshine to be the best mix for the setting.
