The emails sent prior to class were extremely helpful and clear. I followed all of the recommendations and brought everything that was suggested, even when some of the items seemed unnecessary at first. For example, I remember wondering why I would need a sweatshirt in a gym. It did not take long to understand why it was on the list. After working out and then sitting for instruction, I cooled down quickly and was very grateful to have it with me. The preparation guidance was practical and well thought out. One of the things I appreciated most about the training was the balance between participating and learning how to lead. Transitioning from being a Zumba participant to thinking like an instructor was a very different experience. Van did an excellent job supporting everyone and providing individualized feedback. She took the time to identify areas where each participant could improve and offered constructive, actionable suggestions. What stood out to me was that she recognized my goals were different from those of many other participants. I am not interested in opening a business account or marketing myself as an instructor. Rather than assuming everyone had the same objectives, she asked about my specific goals and tailored her advice accordingly. Her most valuable suggestion was helping me understand that I cannot teach at my own highest energy level if my goal is to engage people who are just beginning their fitness journey. She recommended that I observe several Zumba Gold instructors, which has already given me valuable insight into how to modify my approach and better support friends who are looking to become more active. I also appreciated the supportive atmosphere among the participants. Technology does not always come easily to me, and I asked for help when I needed it. The other instructors were incredibly helpful and respectful. When I explained that I learn best by doing things myself rather than having someone do them for me, they honored that preference and guided me with verbal instructions instead. Their patience and encouragement helped me build confidence, and I now feel comfortable navigating the app on my own. Overall, the training provided practical instruction, individualized coaching, and a supportive learning environment. I left feeling better prepared, more confident, and more capable of achieving the goals that brought me to the course.
The instructor's energy is amazing!
Absolutely loved the Zumba basic 1 in person tea! The instructor was energetic, encouraging & made learning easy to follow. The atmosphere was positive, & motivating & I feeling more confident & excited to continue my Zumba journey. Highly recommend this training to anyone wanting to grow their fitness & dancers skills
I love Zumba for 6 years and I hope that next years will bring new experience and wonderful time.
Was useful but not for 100%
I had a great time at the Basic 1 training with Virginia Escamez in Madrid. She is a really fun and fantastic teacher! It was a high-energy day with lots of laughter and enjoyment, and the training was well-rounded with a balance of dancing and theory to cover the basics. I only wish it was longer for more Zumba fun!
I had a wonderful time with Didem Zeybek. I will be forever grateful to have received training from such a valuable person who shares my feelings about Zumba.
Cyd was a great instructor, learnt a lot from her
All excellent
Ann is a fantastic instructor! I had never attended a full Zumba class. I am 60 years old and feeling like I really need to start working out again before I start declining. I knew this class would be tough, and it was. But it was also a lot of fun and it was a very supportive environment.
Great dance make me happy
Perfect! Amazing and very competent trainer (Marta - you rock!), perfect preparation, full day of fun (and sweat).
Super fun, super engaging, 100% recommend :D
Highly recommend taking this basics 1 Zumba with Jenna Boom Bostic. Very knowledgeable, fun and easy to follow‼️ Loved the experience. My goal is to Hello others move more. Zumba is the best way.
Stephanie is truly remarkable. Her energy is contagious, and she creates a space that feels both inspiring and supportive. I loved that the training wasn’t just about learning steps, but also about understanding the cultural history behind the rhythms and practicing safe, effective technique. It exceeded my expectations. I can’t recommend it enough.
Wonderful experience!
