Anxious about group fitness classes

Hi! I’ve been trying to lose weight for about 9-10 months now. The weight loss seems very slow which is frustrating but the most discouraging part is that I hit plateau about 2 months ago and I think that for the most part it might be due to lack of physical activity in my life :(

I’ve been overweight (and even on a lower end of the obesity range) for the majority of my life and avoided going to the gym in fear of judgment but I realise that exercise is crucial if I want to continue bettering myself.

I found a group kickboxing class I would absolutely love to sign up for but the dread of feeling like I don’t belong there because of my athletic abilities and physique is the only thing that is stopping me. I do understand that people wouldn’t typically concentrate on others’ performance , but in a setting of a group session I might feel like my presence is an inconvenience to other participants and a burden to a trainer. Is it common to feel this way? Should I start by solo workouts until I feel better about myself?
