C. Abstraction Our topic for today is all about the
“Recreation: Dance Exercises (Zumba)”
Zumba is a form of Aerobic dance exercise
similar to Jazzercise. Some forms of Zumba
involve resistance training intended to build
strength while the more basic forms are
lower impact and usually slower paced.
Zumba a popular dance-fitness
program, originated in Colombia in the
1990s when aerobics instructor Alberto
"Beto" Perez forgot his usual music and
improvised with Latin music, leading to a hit
class that evolved into the global
phenomenon we know today.
Zumba and Physical Fitness
Cardiovascular Endurance. Is the ability
of the heart, lungs and blood vessels to
deliver oxygen to the working muscles for a
long period of time. Zumba requires
cardiovascular fitness to be able to sustain
the activity for a long period of time.6
Muscular Endurance. Is the ability of the

time. Zumba targets lots of different muscle
groups and the ability of a given muscle to

Muscular Strength. The ability of the
muscles to exert maximal force in a short
period of time. In Zumba, strength is
improved if a certain muscle or muscle
groups is used over and over.
Flexibility. The ability of the joints to move
through a full range of motion. Flexibility in
Zumba is vital to be able to perform the
dance moves.
Coordination. Is the linking of the body
parts and senses to produce smooth and
efficient movements. Coordinated
movements in Zumba are important in order
to achieve the correct action.
Power. Is the product of strength and speed.
A lot of power is produced in Zumba
because of all the movements your muscles
are doing and the speed at which they are
doing them.
Balance. The ability to maintain a state of
equilibrium while stationary or moving.
Balance is needed in Zumba to stay on your
feet while changing your movements
and steps often.
Agility. The ability to change direction
 quickly. In Zumba, agility is needed so that
one can quickly change direction in
performing the dance steps.
Speed. Is the ability to move a body part
quickly. In Zumba speed is needed to be able
to move to certain positions quickly and to
do fast dance steps.
Reaction Time. Is the amount of time your
brain can respond to a stimulus and initiate a
response. In Zumba, the ability to quickly
respond in every action is needed.
