A new concept to a fitness class! Zumba is a fun and effective cardio workout with sculpting exercises designed to tone the entire body from top to bottom. Depending on how you exert yourself, you could burn between 600 to 1000 calories PER CLASS!  Latin music and a combination of fast and slow Latin moves are used. This high/low impact class has something to offer all fitness levels. 45 minutes of fitness fun!

Aimee  "This class has been absolutely fantastic!  I really have enjoyed it. Unfortunately my company is shipping me back to Illinois at the end of June...You will still see my participation Monday and Wednesday evenings at the Grant Center through June. You and Laura have really motivated me to loose weight this year… I’ve lost 10 pounds so far… yippee!!!!   I am so glad I took your classes… they have been a blast!  And now that I am addicted to Zumba, I will have to try and find a class on it back in the suburbs of Chicago.  And I know the instructor won’t make me laugh or sweat as much as you and Laura do!! J   Take Care."  

Edie's Blog "...each class can vary and a lot of the chemistry depends on your instructor. I have found the best instructor around, her name is Debbie Lim. My sister takes Zumba in the Pittsburgh area and she too has a really good instructor named Alex. I have checked in on the Zumba class that takes place right where I work and I could take that class for free if I wanted to but the teacher just doesn't compare... the long and the short of it is if your instructor knows the steps and and lead the class great, but the best instructors know how to be entertaining, friendly, and a bit goofy all at once.....So if you happen to be in the Farmington Hills, Michigan area, take a class with Debbie, she is wonderful!"

Most people that are new to Zumba will not know the difference between an Authorized Zumba Instructor or a "fake Zumba Instructor".  Zumba is suppose to be energetic, fun, with "no worries", and like a party setting. We are taught to give you at least 70% Latin and 30%"other".  (In our Fitness Motivators classes, we give our students 99& Latin music. We may use one American Song per class. We want to keep the original concept of Zumba intact.) Make sure to ask the Instructor if he or she is authorized to teach Zumba. If he or she says "yes", then ask for their business cards or full name and you check for yourself!

Having a Zumba Instructor teach with their backs facing you is not desirable nor is it considered proper in the fitness industry. Some Participates don't mind or prefer the Instructors backs facing them, but this type of class is not personable and can lead to boredom and sometimes can cause injury to the Participate. When an Instructor is facing away from the students, the Instructor cannot monitor the students and cannot see if there is a situation among the students that need immediate attention.  If the studio has mirrors and the Instructor periodically faces the mirrors (with their backs toward you) and then faces the class, that is appropriate.   Remember, the theme of Zumba is "Join the Party".  It is meant to be different from a "normal cardio class" and meant to "feel like a party".

Help maintain the integrity and quality of the Zumba name and Zumba classes

Sadly some people and Fitness Companies are offering Zumba classes without being properly trained or authorized. To help maintain the integrity and quality of the Zumba name and Zumba classes, the Officials at Zumba LLC asked that you help, by "reporting" Instructors or these Fitness Companies who are teaching with an expired certificate, teaching without any certificate, providing unauthorized training, or misusing the Zumba name or Logo.  Please report this to  info@zumba.com 

These Instructors and Fitness Companies have been known to use the  Zumba<™ name by adding another name to Zumba, (e.g., Zumba/Latin Dance or Zumba/Boxing, etc). Please inform Zumba LLC. This is illegal and those people know that it is illegal! A Fitness Company has to state which Instructor is teaching the "Zumba class" and not use their company name as "offering the Zumba class". Getting authorized is an individual task. Unless the company is part of Zumba LLC, they cannot falsely advertise that their company is authorized in Zumba.

You can also check to see if the Instructor offering Zumba is listed at the official Zumba website (Please note:  Individual names and not the business name will be listed.  The actual Instructor who is offering the Zumba class must be listed at the official website.)  Thank you for your support.
