Starting the new year while starting a new sport? Think Zumba

That´s a question, which probably a lot of you had asked yourself when 2018 began, then why don´t you think about Zumba?

It´s the newest sport from Latin America, which is trending all over the world and maybe is able to take over Ghana as well. Nowadays there are about 14 million people in 185 different countries, who are taking Zumba classes yet and those are filled with enthusiasm of doing sport and having a great time simultaneously.

Alberto „Beto“ Perez is the name you should remember, because he is the one, who invented this whole new style of sport. He was giving his regular Aerobic classes back in Colombia, when he realized he had forgetten the music. Perez didn´t want the lesson to be cancelled, so he just used his own CD´s, thought of new moves and created something very special!

Zumba is a mix of everything, which is entertaining and makes you loose weight fast

Besides the fact, that it combines aerobic elements with standartized fitness parts, it also shows off various dance components from mostly spanish dances, so you won´t get borred at all. Normally Latin American music is used, but international hits are working with this type of sport as well.

There are many different sorts of Zumba. Some are specialized for elderly people, who maybe got a surgery and can´t move well and others are created for kids and teens to get them active. There is something for everyone, who wants to try it. But they do have something in common; it´s all about getting a great perception of one´s own body, strengthen your body control and the most important thing: Have fun!

So go out, try one´s hand on something new and be the first one, who can tell his friends, that they should join and become a part of it as well.
