Zumba is a form of dance aerobics that has gained incredible popularity in the United States. Now we have more and more fitness clubs and dance schools include this lesson in the schedule.
This young fitness destination hails from Colombia and was created by instructor Alberto Perez. Zumba has rapidly become popular in the West and in the United States, which are experiencing a real "zumba boom".
Classes are held under incendiary Latin American music. The choreography is a fusion of simplistic Latin steps and African dance moves. Unlike most dance classes, there is no complex choreography and long cords, the movements change with each song, improvisation is allowed. So you can come to Zumba lessons without any preparation, just do what you get and move for your pleasure. The most important thing is a charge of good mood and a smile.
Usually, especially if the coach is charismatic and there are many people in the group, an atmosphere of celebration and carefree fun is created. Such classes never get bored, as each time the coach demonstrates new movements.
A nice bonus is that zumba helps to normalize weight and keep yourself in good shape.
The passion for this style was quickly supported by the global manufacturers of sportswear, having released entire collections, especially for practicing zumba. It is better to dance in sportswear of bright colors, the "official" color is yellow.
Chain fitness clubs regularly hold zumba parties, parties where a lot of people gather and everyone dances together. Master classes are also held by world-class foreign instructors. During the warmer months, parties are also held outside.
The largest Zumba exercise was recorded in the Netherlands in 2012, with 1,439 people taking part.
So there is no reason not to do this great kind of dance fitness in order to be always in good shape and in a great mood!
