Latin Dance Workout for Your Living Room
This workout is sure to burn calories and put a smile on your face. Equinox instructor Nicole Steen guides you through an upbeat, 30-minute class for PopSugar Fitness. “When it comes to working out, the goal is to just keep moving, so don’t worry if the choreography doesn’t make sense. The more self-conscious you are, the less you move, so let go and focus on the fun,” says Steen.
Zumba Dance Workout
Multiple routines make up this 24-minute Zumba workout by Daniel Hayhurst. Hayhurst’s dance combinations get your heart rate revved up from the very first beat without a lot of talking or interruptions. In 2014, Hayhurst launched Danny’s Workout, a YouTube channel dedicated to teaching free Latin dance and aerobic classes. “The channel will continue with the Latin aerobics, featuring those classic Latin American styles such as the salsa, samba, reggaeton, merengue, and many, many more,” he explains in his debut video about the channel’s contents.
Zumba TurnUP | Shut Up & Dance
Zumba fitness literally wants you to “shut up and dance” in this high-energy, four-minute workout featuring Zumba creator himself, Beto Perez, along with Maritza Bustamante. “The mix of cumbia and reggaeton rhythms means this is one hot choreo,” says the video’s description. Although there are zero verbal instructions given during the routine, the video displays graphics when direction changes are about to occur.
