Join the Zumba® Fitness Party!

If you haven’t tried a Zumba® Fitness class yet, you need to go out and try one today! Zumba is a great way to get into shape while expressing and challenging yourself at the very same time. It is unlike any traditional way of exercising that will leave you feeling like you have just had the best workout ever.

Do not feel intimidated if you have not done a Zumba® Fitness class and would like to participate. With Zumba you are able to move at your own pace and do the basic moves until you become more familiar and comfortable with some of the dance steps. It can be a gradual improvement where you challenge yourself to get to that next level of complicated dance steps. Another nice thing about Zumba is that you do not need any special equipment or clothes. What you have at home will most likely work.

The best thing about Zumba® is probably the exhilarating and fun environment that you get to work out in. Many people refer to Zumba as a party instead of actual exercise. The combination of fast and slow rhythmic movements will feel like you are just dancing the night away at a club with some friends rather than in the studio working out. Why don’t you join the craze that more than 12 million people enjoy every week? You may just find your favorite workout routine.

Zumba® Fitness classes are held at Dance FX Studios in Mesa three days a week: Monday and Wednesday nights at 6 pm and Saturday mornings at 10 am. If you are a newcomer to at Dance FX Studios check out our “5 for $25” promotion at https://dancefxstudios.com/zumba-classes-mesa-az/

Zumba® Fitness Sweeps Arizona!

Gilbert Zumba classesToday you can just about find a Zumba® class or related home workouts wherever you go. From gyms and dance studios to even in your very own home with Zumba workout DVDs and video games.

If you are a little green to the whole Zumba® phenomenon, Zumba is a fusion of Latin dancing and low impact aerobics. Zumba was created during the 1990s by a dancer and choreographer, Alberto Perez, who happened to forget his aerobics music for class and improvised by using what he had on him. The traditional Latin music he had led him to create a non-traditional aerobics workout for the day, which must have been popular with the Columbian locals as Zumba has spread like a wild-fire.

So you may have noticed that Zumba® started in Columbia and ask; what are some of the reasons why Zumba has become so popular in the United States? There are a few things why this may be, one being the fun music and nonstop movement that creates an engaging environment. Unlike a traditional workout at the gym where you may become bored with the monotonous movements, Zumba offers a variety of movements and challenges that will keep you thinking and entertained.

Another reason for Zumba®’s success is because it is a total body workout of your upper body, lower body, and core. With Zumba, the instructors are able to intensify traditional dance moves, thus increasing bodyweight resistance and interval cardio. Some of the dance moves incorporated into Dance FX Studios’ Zumba classes are inspired by Hip Hop, Salsa, Merengue, Belly Dancing, and other dancing styles as well.

A third reason why Zumba® is so well-liked is because you do not have to be a master in dancing to be able to do it. As long as you keep moving, follow the dance moves to the best of your ability, and have fun, you are likely to shed some fat. What could be a better way of working out instead of having fun? If you would like to try out your hand at Zumba®, Dance FX Studios in Mesa, AZ (located just off the 101 highway) holds Zumba classes on Mondays and Wednesdays at 6PM and on Saturdays at 10AM.

Scottsdale ZumbaWhat is a Zumba® fitness class like? It’s a very exciting dance party atmosphere full of Latin and international music. You’ll forget you’re working out with the sexy but simple moves to dance music like Cha Cha, Salsa, reggaeton, rumba and more. Best of all, you don’t need any previous dance experience!

For me, it’s fun and effective, using interval training combining fast and slow rhythms for an effective aerobic workout while at the same time targeting your legs, abs, gluteus and arms.

The Zumba workout is basically  a “watch and follow” type of fitness class. The moves are repeated often enough for you to catch on to and they’re not complicated. For those of you who are nervous to join in with the “regulars”, know that routines are repeated week after week with additions every now and then to spice things up!

Did you know that Zumba® fitness has taken the fitness world by storm!? Even those who loathe working out find themselves working up a sweat and having fun with this high impact dance-based workout. There’s nothing like cranking up the music and letting your body go. Zumba does just that, working your core, thighs and butt in the process.

Zumba is a fun way to get in shape for the summer months ahead.  Remember it’s a unique and exciting way to get fit, so if you’re new to the exercise game, take your time and you’ll be shakin’ it before you know it. No worries, the Zumba instructors at Dance FX Studios are willing to work with newcomers so that you won’t feel behind.

Come to Dance FX Studios just off the 101 freeway for Zumba® fitness classes 3 times a week! We are less than 10 minutes away from Scottsdale and Ahwatukee, and we border Tempe, Gilbert and Chandler in Mesa Arizona. Get the most out of your workout at Dance FX Studios where class sizes are limited and you will be dancing on sprung flooring! https://dancefxstudios.com/zumba-classes-mesa-az/.

Why Zumba® Fitness Is For YOU!

/in /by

Phoenix Zumba“As long as you’re moving and having fun, that’s all that matters.”

Can you be truly committed to a healthy lifestyle with adequate exercise if you hate cardio? Well, “hate” might be a strong word, but I’ve never been the biggest fan of cardio exercise, especially if it came in the form of running. I never considered dancing a form of exercise, but when I first tried Zumba, I was completely shocked at how sore my body was the next day. My idea of a workout was having a good 30-minute cardio consisting of either running, biking or elliptical. Throw in some lap swimming or kick boxing for good measure. Compared to the cardio portion of Fitness Boot Camp, I can say that Zumba is certainly more fun and if you are really good at Zumba, you’d be amazing at dancing in a Latin club.

When people ask me, “What type of exercise do you do?” I always say Zumba. Often, I get a questionable/horrified stare, and I always clarify it. I say, “It’s not scary”. I tell them, this is Zumba, a fast-paced, aerobic, Latin-dance-inspired workout that’s said to be intense and fun at the same time. I think the most common cause for people putting a break to their exercise is boredom and lack of time. Zumba has the ability to solve both these problems by offering a complete body workout in just a single session, making exercise fun. The classes are quite exciting, minimized to 35 people per session, the music is lively and up-tempo therefore, time flies quickly.

Looking for a place to practice zumba? Dance FX Studios is known for its dance-fitness workout, and their private Latin dance lessons. Come join our team and see how Zumba can provide health benefits for you!
