Zumba – A way of life

In today’s fast paced life people are moving towards fitness in various forms like cardio, yoga, trekking, cycling, aerobics, dance etc.    

Every trainer says that cardio is a must. But running on the tread mill or cross trainer is not convenient for everyone. At times people find it boring or strenuous, hence they look for options like Aerobic exercises, Pilates, Zumba etc.

So, when there are so many options why Zumba? 
We asked Anand about his thoughts over Zumba & he gave some insightful answers.

Why Zumba for fitness?

“Zumba refreshes your mind. You work out along with having Fun. You move on different beats, music syncing your mind and soul. For that one hour, you forget all your worries and just enjoy”

How has Zumba helped you?

“Zumba helps in keeping me close to my passion: Dance. I was always inclined towards dance and began teaching it at a very young age. Today I not only enjoy doing Zumba myself, but also teaching it, as I believe Zumba can help people to stay fit and healthy.”

What’s your inspiration to keep going?

I have seen peoples’ lives change since I started teaching Zumba, due to the positive outlook Zumba brings. It has changed me and my thought process too. I get to learn things every day from the feedback I receive from my students. I try & improvise; sometimes by unlearning few things and learning it again. My students are my best teachers & so when their life changes because of me, that’s my inspiration.

While Zumba has become a way of life for Anand, we continue to ask him to share his thoughts and experiences.
