Zumba Toning
Zumba Fitness is a dance-fitness program that incorporates cardio exercise using interval
training. Zumba toning uses light resistance to help tone the body while doing the same fun
zumba workout.
Zumba Toning to sculpt and tone!
A Zumba toning class will use the same great music and dance moves as in a regular
zumba class but add additional fitness moves and focus on certain body parts, and will
use light weights.
Zumba uses light weights, from 1 to 3 pounds. A zumba toning class may also use
"toning sticks." These are light weights that shake like maracas. They come with the
zumba dvd set or your local instructor may have them for sale. With the use of weighted
toning sticks you can add specific fitness moves to target major muscle groups.
A Zumba Toning class will incorporate squats, lunges, overhead presses, bicep curls,
and lateral raises, for example. Because the weights are so light you can still do your
regular Zumba salsa, cumbia, merengue, samba and other dance rhythms while getting a
better calorie-burning and muscle toning workout.
Zumba toning is part of the zumba dvd set and is also taught by instructors who have
been certified to teach it.
