WHY ZUMBA?
If you hate working out but you need to exercise in order to stay in shape, burn off all the junk food and keep your heart healthy, Zumba is just for you. Grooving to the beats of salsa, flamingo and merengue music feels more like a dance party than a workout, which is exactly what makes Zumba so popular. The Latin-inspired dance workout is one of the most popular group exercise classes in the world. The high energy classes are set to upbeat music and feature choreographed dance numbers that you might nightclub. You don't need to be a great dancer to feel welcome in a Zumba class. With the tag line, "Ditch the workout, join the Party" the classes emphasize moving to the music and having a good time. No rhythm required.
