HUMS

 Zumba is a notion with several meanings in the dictionary produced by the Royal Spanish Academy ( RAE ). The first refers to a large cowbell that oxen or horses usually carry in certain contexts.

The RAE also mentions that zumba can be a toy also known as churinga or bramadera ; a beating or a beating; one state of drunkenness persistent; or a joke or joke.

It can be said, on the other hand, that buzzing is a conjugation of buzzing : the generation of a noise that lasts for a while, similar to that which sometimes appears inside the ear. For example: “Why does the machine buzz like this? It is working well?" , "Listen to how the pot hums, I'd better turn off the fire" , "The glass hums due to the action of the wind, don't be scared . "

The notion of zumba, however, is currently associated with a type of aerobic practice that combines dancing with physical exercises . This modality was created by Beto Pérez, a choreographer and dancer born in Colombia but living in the United States .

Zumba, in this context, is a registered trademark. The Zumba Fitness company offers what they call “fitness parties”, which consist of teaching choreography as a training method. According to the company's official website, 15 million people practice Zumba in 180 countries through instructor classes and DVD playback.

Through zumba routines, the person can improve their flexibility and strengthen their muscles while having fun dancing to the rhythm of merengue, reggaeton, cumbia or salsa.

However, if in recent years it has managed to become more known to become the favorite sport of many people to stay in shape, it is because it allows you to enjoy other advantages. Specifically, in addition to those mentioned, these are the main ones that practicing Zumba brings:

-It becomes a great tool to burn calories and, therefore, to be able to lose fat. Hence, it is considered that in each Zumba session, lasting about sixty minutes, around 800 calories can be eliminated.

-It improves the mood, thanks to the fact that those who practice this discipline do not get bored, because the choreographies continually change, and, in the same way, have fun. And all this is as a consequence of the fact that endorphins are released by performing your exercises.

-It becomes a great resource to release stress and tensions that accumulate in the day to day as a result of work and problems.

-Allows you to achieve magnificent results at the body level in a short period of time.

-Helps to improve social skills, since the classes are group classes and allow you to meet more people.

-It serves to forcefully increase both coordination and balance.

In addition to all the above, we cannot ignore that the fact that there is no age to practice Zumba is also considered a great success. It is believed that anyone, no matter how old they are, can carry out this sport without problems.
