Zumba for the Beginner


Zumba is a widely popular workout program that incorporates Latin dance rhythms to provide you with an exciting workout experience. The movements in Zumba are easy to follow and classes are especially designed to accommodate beginners and those more advanced.

If you have never tried Zumba classes then start with a Zumba basic class. This will allow you to become familiar with the various songs, the rhythms and the moves of Zumba.

Some basic classes will have you practicing without using any music. This way you can really understand the principal movements first. Then once the music is turned on you will see that you can move to the music more easily.

If you find the basic level of Zumba too hard or awkward to do then you can try taking a Zumba Gold class. This level is designed for the true beginner and for those individuals whose skills are lacking because of inadequate strength and flexibility.

In fact, Zumba Gold is perfect for senior citizens and many who have participated have enjoyed seeing their strength levels and balance return.

Zumba is very easy to follow and can be a more relaxed or more intense workout. This all depends on how hard you wish to dance.

The actual Zumba movements are very fluid and this combined with the Latin music allows people to really enjoy their dancing session.

Many people report finding a Zumba class more fulfilling than a traditional aerobics class.

As a beginner you only need to attend class two to three times a week.

Most Zumba classes will last for an hour and you can easily burn lots of calories during this time.

As well Zumba classes are a wonderful way to socialize and learn more about the origins of the music and the history of the dances.

All you need to get started with Zumba is some comfortable shoes and loose clothing.

It is highly recommended to drink some water before and during the class.

Many fitness clubs will allow you to take a Zumba class for free before signing up for a long term commitment.

When looking for Zumba classes look for a location where they have several levels.

This way if you progress faster than you expected you can move up into a more advanced class.

Or you can simply dance at a more intense level to derive even more benefits from your workout.
