Zumba is a Latin-inspired fitness class, designed with both low and high intensity moves to get you dancing those calories away in a super fun workout.
Are you looking for a fitness class that will help you get fitter without feeling like you are working out? Zumba combines the benefits of a workout with the fun and creativity of hitting the dance floor.
Zumba was originally invented in the 1990s in Colombia and is a combination of different dance moves and cardio fitness. It takes inspiration from dance styles such as mambo, samba, and salsa among others while adding in various exercises to help bolster your cardiovascular fitness and muscular endurance.
Boogie those calories away!
Village Health & Wellness Club Bury classes are led by a Zumba expert that’ll guide you through every move of every session to make sure you’re not only having fun but getting all the benefits Zumba has to offer.

Zumba aids weight loss. An hour of Zumba can burn anywhere from 600 to 1,000 calories. This, of course, depends on how much effort you put into each session. Remember that you’ll get out just as much as your put in for any workout, and Zumba is no different.
Helps you tone your muscles. Zumba uses a whole host of different muscle groups in the body in a natural way. This makes Zumba class a great way to tone your muscles without adding too much muscle mass.
Improves cardiovascular health. Keeping your metabolism up and your heart pumping is a key part of any successful fitness class. Thankfully, Zumba is fantastic at doing both. Keeping your metabolism running high will help you burn calories as well as increase the rate at which your heart needs to pump blood around the body. This, in turn, will help you develop the heart muscle to become more effective at its job. That isn’t to mention it’ll help you increase your stamina!
Helps improve balance and coordination. In a Zumba class you’ll be dancing away to the beat which will help you improve your coordination and for the more challenging moves, you’ll need good balance - balance you’ll develop with each passing session.
There are other benefits of Zumba to consider other than the physical benefits. Dancing is a great way to relieve yourself of stress and can help you keep your mental health in good check - not to mention the buzz you’ll get from jiving away to a playlist of bangers.
Zumba is a fantastic exercise class for hitting all your goals while having fun. It is great for both beginners that are looking to get into fitness as well as seasoned fitness pros wanting to include something a little different into their established routine. But Zumba is also a brilliant choice no matter your age, as the moves used in Zumba are easy to learn and low impact.
Our Zumba classes in Manchester will provide you with a full-body workout without the risks of more intense fitness classes. It won’t put as much strain on your muscles and joints, making it a superb choice for seniors or older adults that want to stay fit and minimise the chances of injury.
Zumba is also well-known as being a social class in that you can meet like-minded people. Dance your way to a thinner waist line and make new friends!
For those who are interested in Zumba, knowing what to wear is a common question we get asked during the booking process. You’ll want to wear something comfortable. Zumba is low impact but can be high energy - meaning you’ll definitely break a sweat.
Lightweight fabrics like cotton or mesh for upper and lower body wear are great choices. Having supportive, comfortable shoes (preferably without laces) are ideal. If you do have laces, be sure to tie them tight.
