Either near the Opera Tower Fountain/Tayelet, Gordon Pool (central TLV) or in the Borsa, Ramat Gan. 

 

What should I wear?

The main thing is to wear comfortable clothes to workout in. It’s important that you can move your legs freely so that you can benefit from Zumba by e.g. kicking them high or being able to squat low to get toned.

 

What should I bring to class?

• A bottle of water

• Wear gym clothes

• A towel or something to wipe the sweat off - and if you're not sweating you're not working hard enough!

• The most important thing, however, is to bring a positive attitude and a determination to have fun!

 

What shoes are best to practice Zumba in?

Ideally wear cross trainers (the less tread the better). Try to find shoes with a good arch support, cushioning, flexible soles and ventilation. If possible wear ones with a pivot point on the bottom to help you turn and twist more freely. You can buy special Zumba trainers or even wear dance trainers.

 

How difficult are the classes?

Zumba Fitness is built around various different dance steps which can seem difficult or complicated at first but the more classes you do, the more you’ll get to know them, become familiar with Anna’s style and dance routines and the easier it will become. Essentially you can decide how much you want to push your body e.g. if you really want to tone your arms and legs you’ll use them a lot more.

 

What form do the classes take?

There are a couple of tracks at the beginning of the class that are slightly less strenuous to warm you up and then a cool down and stretch track at the end. 

 

What happens if I don’t speak Hebrew and/or English?

You don’t need to understand any language with Zumba, as you just watch, follow and have fun whilst getting fit!

 

How does Zumba keep me fit?

Zumba is great for overall aerobic fitness as well as toning and core stability.

 

How do I train to become a Zumba instructor myself?

You can look at zumba.com and find out the nearest teacher training course near you.
