What is Zumba® in the Circuit?
Take the high-energy, Latin-inspired dance-fitness moves of the Zumba® program and mix them with a series of strength exercises at timed intervals and you've got Zumba in the Circuit, the 60-minute workout that's putting a new spin on circuit training.
Now you can be part of the Zumba in the Circuit revolution and teach the world's only, circuit-oriented fitness-party.
What is Circuit Training?
Circuit training is a combination of high-intensity aerobics (cardio) and resistance training (strength) designed to be easy to follow and target fat loss, muscle building, muscle endurance and heart fitness. An exercise "circuit" consists of "stations" in a circle around the room. Each station is dedicated to a particular exercise that will work a particular muscle group. The completed circuit provides an entire body workout!
What can I expect in the Zumba in the Circuit class at Fit Fusion?
In this circuit we do not stop - it is a continuous flow of strength training - Zumba cardio - strength training - Zumba cardio for 45 minutes. Followed by a 15 minute cool down and relaxing stretch. Each participant moves from each station in 1 minute intervals. This new way to enjoy the Zumba program provides the same FUN upbeat environment of our traditional Zumba class, we even have Beto (the creator of Zumba Fitness) telling us when to move to the next station! How cool is that!
NOTE: each participant can take a break or water as needed.
Who can attend this class?
EVERYONE! All fitness levels are welcome to attend Zumba in the Circuit. Each station will provide a fitness apparatus that will allow you to chose one of 3 levels to complete your workout. Whatever your level of fitness, whether you’re a top athlete or merely a beginner, you can all work together in the same training session. It is perfectly acceptable for you to work at your own pace within each activity and workout-station. Circuit training also lets you really push yourself and set your own goals with the knowledge that you’ve only got 60 seconds worth of any activity before you move on to the next. Your instructors are here to lead and motivate you through, but you are in charge of how hard you work within that 60 seconds.
I'd love to try the class but I'm not real great with my Zumba moves?
This class is PERFECT for those who need to improve their basic Zumba Fitness steps. Each one minute interval focuses on a particular Zumba step which is a great way to help improve your skills and endurance for your other Zumba Fitness classes.
I loved the Zumba Fusion Class - how will this class compare?
In order for our Instructors and our studio to offer the Zumba Fitness Program we must continue to comply with the Zumba licensing agreement. That means only conducting classes that are approved by Zumba Fitness, LLC. We also must provide Zumba fitness classes that our instructors have been trained and educated to lead. At Fit Fusion, we believe in offering you only the BEST of the fitness industry.
In this new class you will get the same cardio/strength benefits as you did in Zumba Fusion with the added benefits of the interval training which helps you to burn MEGA calories!
