Types: Zumba combines body-sculpting moves with the dance steps of meringue, cumbia, reggaeton, salsa, mambo, hip-hop, rumba, calypso and flamenco. Function: A Zumba workout targets the legs, glutes, arms, heart and abdominal muscles and will help you tone up. Benefits: In general, regular aerobic exercise has numerous rewards. Weight loss is one outcome. Another benefit is the reduction of health risks like obesity, heart disease and high blood pressure. Depression, anxiety and other moods can be uplifted through keeping fit. For information on ZUMBA® Fitness classes and all other Stanley Park events, check online at: www.stanleypark.org.
