Zumba Instructor

Zumba is the most fun way to get into shape! You get to dance to fun, exciting music while dropping calories fast! Zumba is designed to help you loss weight fast by dancing to (usually) Latin music. It combines all different kinds of dance styles and music. It is personally my favorite workout class because it has fun upbeat music and cool, fun dance moves. I go twice a week. I've noticed myself losing weight after the second week of going. The weight loss is why I keep going there. I have never had results this good and this fast doing any other program.

To be a Zumba instructor you must complete a training course and get an instructors license. You then have to keep your licence current by taking any of the classes shown below:

• Zumba Basics 1 or Jump Start Gold     -    Zumba Basics 1 teaches an instructor dance moves and how to put them together while Jump Start Gold teaches an instructor how to start a class for older people. It address the needs of older people in the community.

• Zumba Basics 2                                   -    Zumba Basics 2 teaches an instructor six more types of dance which include belly dance, tango, flamenco, samba, soca, and quebradita.

• Zumba Toning                                     -     Zumba Toning teaches instructors body-sculpting techniques. This class also teaches you how to weights will doing dance-like moves and working out all of the target areas.

• Aqua Zumba                                      -    Aqua Zumba teaches instructors how to create a safe water-based workout.

• Zumbatomic                                      -    Zumbatomic teaches instructors how to create a class for children ages 4-12. This class also teaches tips about discipline.

It is recommended that a person should do Zumba two to six times a week. There is no chance for the body to recover so it has no choice but to burn calories. Typically in an hour long class the average person burns over 1000 calories! Zumba isn't that expensive. Usually, it's $5-$7 per class with your first time being free.
