Zumba

Latin dance workout

Zumba is a fitness program combining Latin dance moves with aerobic exercise, set to upbeat music.

Classes follow an instructor through choreographed routines mixing salsa, merengue, and other dance styles.

The name is a trademark but commonly used generically: I go to Zumba three times a week.
