A very popular fitness program, inspired from the Latin dances, is the Zumba dance. The name comes from a Columbian word that means to move fast while having fun. Because it mixes resistance training with cardio intervals, Zumba is an optimal fitness choice for all people.
There are many experts who believe that body toning and fat burning can be maximized through a resistance-interval training combination. Because they have so much fun during a Zumba session, people forget that they are actually working out and so they are able to exercise longer and burn a lot more fat.
What is very interesting and exciting in a typical session is the abundance of musical styles like rumba, merengue, salsa, mambo, reggaeton, and many other styles, depending on the instructor.

The creator of the Zumba dance, Beto Perez, a fitness instructor from Colombia, forgot to bring his training music at his fitness class and used whatever music he had in his car - and this is how Zumba was born! This is the simple story of the fitness program that in 15- 20 years had spread worldwide and even recruited Hollywood stars.
Main Benefits of Zumba
The fun workout for Anyone, Any Age, Any Ability |
There are many benefits the Zumba dance provides, but the most important ones are the following:
A single workout can burn up to 1,000 calories depending on the intensity with which people dance. Because it is so complex, you will never get bored.
Every Zumba session is like no other before, and you will burn off fat without feeling you are really exercising. This fitness program stimulates your abs, feet and back, obtaining a much more agile body.
The easy-to-follow dance steps will allow you to have fun and you will not feel uncomfortable when you run them. Self-confidence will improve and this will be seen in other aspects of your life. If you do not feel comfortable when others see you dancing, there are many DVDs with Zumba lessons that you can buy. In this way you can practice at home, where no one sees you.
Choosing the right Zumba Shoes
The Zumba dance requires you to do many different movements, which is why you will need comfortable shoes. Each person needs a different type of shoes depending, on their foot structure.
The best suited sneakers for Zumba must have soles that will allow you to slide, jump and turn very easily; moreover, they must not have a strong grip, so that they can allow you to perform any movements. More than that, the shoes must provide cushioning so that when you jump or land, the pressure on your joints will be minimalized.
Another important aspect you must remember when you look for Zumba shoes is their weight. You must choose lightweight sneakers which will allow you to move easily.
The Zumba dance has been recognized worldwide as one of the best fitness programs and, each year, more people are drawn to it. The combination of aerobics and dance routines is very exciting for people who want to lose weight and have fun doing it.

Thank you for this article. Very nice videos about this kind of fitness. I think it's so much fun to lose weight with Zumba. I followed Kangoo Jumps as well, but I love to dance, not to jump :D I can't wait to start again these lessons, because I had a busy schedule at work and home these days.
Glad you like it and hope you started your class by now. I find that making the time for dance in my schedule is always worth it. My mind is clearer and my energy flows so well for work and family! Take care...
