I love Zumba. It's been around forever. I think I wrote about it back in 2002!! The article was Dance Off Those Calories
http://www.bellaonline.com/articles/art7054.asp and it features all kinds of dance workouts to help people get fit so if you find Zumba too challenging there is so much more to explore.
I think Zumba is gaining popularity again because people are so tired of boring cardio workouts on machines that don't get results.
People want so much more from fitness these days. They want to have fun, improve posture, strengthen their core, feel inspired and I think Zumba does all this and so much more.
It's a great way to burn calories but definitely add strength workouts a couple of times a week to build muscle.
