MTC you really need to gain some lean muscle then cut body fat. Body Pump will not give muscular bulk. How were you measured for your body fat %? Dexa or Pinch?
Without the lean muscle you will look nothing more than a skinny girl.
A friend of mine recently cut for a comp and didn't bulk enough, she ended up looking like a malnourished skinny girl at about 14% bodyfat. She missed this years comp season. Will post some pics when I get on my laptop.
If you are on a forum asking this question of where to start, you really need a coach. Your current low bodyfat is an advantage.

Acquire some strength and muscular hypertrophy training and disregard pump classes.
 
Thanks for the responses. Have cut out the pump classes and working with more weights, I am also working with a great personal trainer since moving here and have given my diet a bit more of a shake up. Now to be patient, and stick to it and the results will come!
