At its core, ZUMBA classes are intended to BURN YOUR EXTRA FAT through aerobic activity done with interval training in mind.
Depending on body weight, sex, fitness level and other common physical factors, the number of calories you burn in a typical ZUMBA class will equal that of any fast dancing hour, such as Salsa, Disco or even when our own Baila Mixes which are incorporated into these routines; ‘Sri Lankan Style’ as Dharshan; the U.S. Certified ZUMBA Fitness Instructor, likes to call it!
For most people, that can add up to 800 to 1000 OR even 1600 calories burned per hour. With the classes choreographed to provide intervals of intensity in both pace of music and type of movements, class members' energy expenditure is maximized for fat-burning benefits.
Fitness moves are also incorporated within ZUMBA dances, so don't be surprised if you find yourself moving from a fast Merengue beat to a long, slow set of push-ups on the wall, or doing several sets of squats followed by plyometric jumps.
Last week we made you sweat to the beats of ZOOMER and now we have a choreography for an original ZUMBA song “PEGATÉ” which is basically a Merengue type song you are already familiar with!!
