Aqua Zumba is a water fitness class. Water fitness has become very popular because it allows people of all fitness
levels to get a workout.
Water fitness is a great form of low-impact exercise expecially for people with arthritis and for those who are
overweight, deconditioned, or recovering from injury.
Because of the buoyancy of water there is less stress on the joints and bones. In addition, because moving against
water creates resistance you will build muscle and endurance.
Aqua zumba allows you to get a great workout but also makes it fun. Just like the regular zumba format, aqua
zumba uses dance and fitness moves to the background of fun, upbeat music.
The instructor may be guiding the class from outside the pool. Zumba has a certification program to train those who
want to become an Aqua zumba Instructor. To become an aqua zumba instructor you would need to be first certified
in basic zumba by taking the basic zumba instructor workshop.
When doing aqua Zumba or any water fitness class it is recommended to wear shoes. There are special aqua
fitness shoes you can wear that provide cushioning and support, traction for the bottom of the pool, and soles that
facilitate water drainage.
