ZUMBA® FAQ'S

ZUMBA® FAQ'S


  • When do the classes start & how long is the class?

The Zumba® classes I teach are ongoing, meaning there is no starting or ending dates. Anybody can jump in at any class and start brand new. New people start every week. Classes range from 45 min to 1hour.

  • What do I wear to Zumba ® ?

You can wear sweat pants, shorts, tank tops, t-shirts, anything comfortable, and a good sports bra. As for shoes, wear athletic shoes that give you support. I recommend light shoes such as running shoes or cross-trainers. Also, bring at least two bottles of water.


  • What can I expect when I come to Zumba ® ?
The instructor will lead the class in easy, simple movements that are combinations of dance and fitness. The students just follow along; usually just visual cues are given so that the class can listen to the music and immerse into the feel of the music.

  • What if I'm not coordinated and I can't dance!

Zumba® uses alot of repetition of steps from class to class. Be patient and try it out a few times. After a few classes you will know the basic steps to salsa, merengue, cha-cha and all the rest. Most of all just have fun!


  • What if I'm out of shape and I can't keep up?

Many students start out at lower fitness levels either from injury or lack of exercise. They do whatever they can do during the class and then gradually add more. Most of the moves are low impact and the ones that aren't can be done that way. Zumba® now, offer a new class called Zumba Gold for Beginners and active adults, it is a non-impact and slower pace Zumba®. 


  • What kind of people are in your Zumba ®  classes?
