What is Zumba?

I have been getting a lot of questions lately about our Zumba class. What is it? I did a little research and this is what I found. Zumba was invented in the mid 1990's by celebrity fitness instructor "Beto" Perez. One day he went to teach his aerobics class and had forgotten his music. He improvised with music he had in his car, some of his favorites, traditional Latin Salsa and Merengue. It was so well received, ta da, Zumba was born. Zumba fuses latin rhythms and easy to follow moves to create a dynamic fitness program that will blow you away! The routine combines fast and slow rhythms with resistance training to tone and sculpt your body while burning fat. Currently we have a 4:15 pm Zumba class on Tuesdays, we will soon be adding a 9:00am class as well. I will keep you posted as to when it will be starting and what day. Hope that answers some questions.
