ZUMBA: The New Craze of Dance-Fitness

Jenni Trent Hughes' last article talked about how she has been lustfully wooed into the throng of regular exercise by something known as Zumba, a vibrant form of dance-fitness inspired by vivacious Latin steps and energised fitness sequences that are not only good for staying healthy and shaping up, they are actually enjoyable too!

I know what you're thinking: Exercise = Laborious Torture. You are most certainly not alone in that mind frame. I don't know many people who don't associate a good work out with looking atrocious, feeling on the brink of some form of organ failure and a sharp desire for the whole experience to end immediately-if-not-sooner so they can crawl out of the room and eat something amounting to more calories than have actually been burned. Zumba, however, is here to change this sombre stereotype. As of May 2010, the Zumba® programme is being taught at over 60,000 locations in 105 countries, has sold millions of DVDs and has changed the lives of Zumba® fanatics worldwide with an astonishing 7.5 million participants taking Zumba classes every week - demonstrating how popular this new form of dance-fitness has become!
