Zumba is a dance fitness program which uses key elements & movements from various regions and dance styles in Latin America. Taking these elements from various dance styles such as salsa, Zumba produces a fun, effective and exciting fitness dance class. By definition ZUMBA means “to move fast,” and it’s also a fusion of the Latin word “rumba” meaning “party”. In other words Zumba means” to move fast and have fun!” The first thing you have to know is that you don’t have to be a dancer. When in class just keep moving, when you move you are burning calories, we are not here to critique you and we don’t all have to be in sync. So whether you are new to Zumba or have taken classes elsewhere, you’ll find Zumba Fitness to be like no other Fitness dance program out there. Just dance, move and have fun, fun, fun! Zumba is led by Ingrid Kessler.
