Zumba is a Colombian dace fitness program created by dancer and
choreographer Alberto "Beto" Perez during the 1990s.
Zumba involves dance and aerobic elements. Zumba's choreography
incorporateshop-hop, soca, samba, salsa, merengue, mambo, martial arts, and
some Bollywood and belly dance moves. Squats and lungers are also included.
Zumba Fitness, an organization that sells Zumba videos and products, does not
charge licensing fees to gyms or fitness centers. Approximately 14 million people take weekly
Zumba classes in over 140,000 locations across more than 150 countries.
I started zumba last year in 10th grade and went
almost every week, with my Mom and the teacher, Magic Mike who is really great.
I continued last semester and I still go when I can and have no homework just
to have fun and dance.
What I like most about Zumba is that it is not only a creative
outlet, but also physically demanding! It sounds strange, but one hour of zumba
can be extremely intense and tiring.
