Zumba Latin Dance – A Healthy Addiction

All around the country people are trying Zumba and loving it. It’s the newest fitness craze. If you love to dance and want to get in the best shape of your life, consider Zumba.

The Zumba Discovery

The creation of Zumba was a happy accident. In 1999, celebrity fitness trainer “Beto” Perez walked into his aerobics class having forgotten his music. Being from Columbia, he had a backpack full of tapes of the music he loved – traditional Latin music. Beto used the music, improvised the moves as he went along and the Zumba craze was born.

The program caught on so well he was approached by entrepreneurs who licensed Zumba. You can now see classes around the world. Kellogg’s has even used the Zumba class to market their Special K cereal. It has been features in just about every major magazine, including Self, Cosmopolitan, Redbook, Family Circle and even the Wall Street Journal and CNN.

“As of October 2010, the Zumba® program is being taught at over 90,000 locations in 110 countries, has sold millions of DVDs” (Source: zumba . com )
