If you just love to move your body to the music, then Zumba is for you.


Usually consisting of a fusion of movements, Zumba features Latin inspired dances at its core including salsa, merengue, cumbia and many more. Of course individual Zumba instructors bring their own flavours and dances to their classes, meaning that no class is ever the same as another.


Most Zumba classes are an hour long. They begin with a dynamic warm-up and end with a cool down and some static stretching. The workout portion is broken down by song, each with a different dance routine. While many of the dance moves instructors use are pre-choreographed by Zumba, instructors often add their own flair, dance steps or even create an entirely new routine to their favourite songs.

Zumba is also unique in that its instructors don't speak much. Instead they cue you on what to do with hand signals of which direction to move, or a loud hand clap that signifies that it's time to move to a new move. Overall, participants learn as they go through repetition and by example.
