Improve your cardiovascular health 

Zumba is an aerobic exercise, which in simple terms means it is a cardio workout that gets your heart rate up and does wonders to your heart and lungs overtime. With Zumba’s workout range from low to high intensity movements, it makes it a near perfect workout for your heart. With it’s dynamic, fun nature you won’t even realise how hard you are working. 

Reduce anxiety 

If you’re looking to de-stress and reduce your anxiety, Zumba is perfect. As we all know, when you exercise your body produces endorphins which can be described in basic terms as “feel good chemicals”. When you combine exercise with the social and fun based activity of a Zumba class, your mood will instantly be improved and will eliminate any stress hormones in your body. 

Improve coordination 

The fast paced nature of the moves are perfect for improving your coordination. In Zumba, you are required to move in a way that requires a great deal of coordination. Therefore, as you continually participate in Zumba classes, your coordination will quickly improve, without you even realising!

What Should You Wear to a Zumba Class?

Comfort is key for Zumba! With it’s high intensity, dynamic dance moves that constantly have you jumping and darting, comfortable fitness attire that gives you full range of motion is perfect. 

You also want to wear clothes that absorb sweat, such as cotton and nylon. When choosing bottoms to wear we recommend wearing stretchable leggings, capri pants or workout shorts. For tops choose breathable t-shirts and singlets. 

Zumba is all about having fun, so when choosing your clothes don’t be afraid to go for bright, vibrant colours! 

What are the Best Sneakers for a Zumba Class? 

It is important that you wear comfortable, supportive shoes. Zumba has a lot of pivots and side-to-side movements so you want to make sure your footwear can handle that and support your ankle whilst providing cushioning. We recommend wearing shoes that are lightweight, breathable and supportive, especially around the arch area.
