We're bringing this fun fitness program back to life! It's been refurbished and under new direction, and will still give you the best exercise you can get today. Denver is doing it, Colorado Springs is doing it...so now let's get Pueblo West to do it.
ZUMBA combines high-energy, upbeat Latin music, rhythm and moves to form a workout program that is open for people of all ages, shapes, and sizes.
Just like any workout program, the key to Zumba is to start out small, and in this particular case, concentrate on the instructor's footwork. Individuals need no prior dancing experience to attend the classes.
A typical class starts with a few warm-up songs to get everyone pumped up for the workout portion of the class, which usually ranges from 8-10 songs with each having 4-5 different steps. If you get into it, it doesn't feel like a workout at all, you're just straight-up dancing.
A fast-paced hour of Zumba can burn more that 500 calories! Even people who are in great shape can get an intense workout. Now go get those tennies out of the closet....
