Evidently, it is a great way to stay fit while having fun as it involves dance and aerobic movements performed to energetic music. Workouts can vary in intensity, and calorie burn from a Zumba session depends on an individual's weight, fitness level and muscle composition.

We use high-intensity, high-energy cardio workouts with Latin dance steps which builds fitness, enables weight loss, and increases stamina. Each workout involves highly choreographed movements set to upbeat salsa and international music. Essentially, Zumba is a fun, high-energy workout experience that keeps you excited to exercise and return for more. This dance class features high- and low-intensity intervals that help improve cardiovascular fitness while also enhancing balance, coordination, agility, and to some degree, strength through the application of beginner-accessible choreography.

You've almost definitely heard of the dance-filled workouts before, thanks to its popular classes across the country. But Zumba is more than just an excuse to get out your dancing shoes — it's a simple, fun, and effective cardio workout that mixes low-intensity and high-intensity moves to help burn calories, boost your energy, and increase balance and flexibility. It's the perfect workout to add to your summer routine because you'll be having too much fun dancing to even realize you're getting good exercise in.

If you're not a dancer, the idea of learning choreography might seem daunting, but Zumba's workouts are easy to follow and geared toward beginners. The instructor will demonstrate the moves multiple times, and it's more about having fun and letting loose than getting the moves exactly right, anyways.
