What is Zumba?
ABOUT ZUMBA® FITNESS ZUMBA® FITNESS. MOVING THE WORLD TO A NEW BEAT.
Zumba is an opportunity to party yourself into shape. It's Latin-inspired, easy to follow, calorie burning fitness party.
WHO WE ARE:
Zumba® Fitness is the Latin-inspired dance-fitness program that blends international music, and contagious steps to form a "fitness-party" that is downright addictive.Since it began in 2001, the Zumba program has grown to become the world's largest – and most successful – dance-fitness program with more than 10 million people of all shapes, sizes and ages taking weekly Zumba classes in over 90,000 locations across more than 110 countries.
OUR STORY:
Sometimes great ideas are born from accidents. In the mid-'90s, no one could have predicted the success of the Zumba® program, not even Alberto "Beto" Perez, who created the Zumba experience, after what many have called a true "happy accident."THE ORIGINAL "FITNESS-PARTY"As a fitness instructor in his native Cali, Colombia, Beto's life took an unexpected turn one fateful day in the mid-'90s when he darted off to teach an aerobics class and forgot his traditional aerobics music. He improvised using his own mix of music from tapes he had in his backpack (salsa and merengue music he grew up with). Spontaneously he created a new kind of dance-fitness, one that focused on letting the music move you (instead of counting reps over the music). Energy electrified the room; people couldn't stop smiling. His class loved it! And on that day, a revolutionary new fitness concept was born – the Zumba®Fitness-Party.
FROM "HAPPY ACCIDENT" TO WORLDWIDE PHENOMENON:
Fast forward to today, the Zumba® program is now taught in gyms and studios all over the world to millions of Zumba enthusiasts. And as the program continues to evolve – from its humble beginnings, to a global movement, to a way of life – its growth has only deepened our commitment to providing accessible fitness, without the strain, without the sacrifice, just the pure joy of a party.The truth is, a "happy accident" can move you in a new direction and change your life forever. That's what happened to us. And now we look forward to sharing the Zumba® program with you.
