Find a professional Zumba class instructor near you

The Zumba classes you can book on Airtasker consist of private, one-to-one classes where the instructor goes to your location and guides you through the choreographed Zumba steps for around an hour. They will usually bring the music for the session, but it’s up to you to set up the speakers for your lessons. Some instructors may also offer online classes, which is an excellent option for those who can’t invite a Tasker to their home. 

While the coverage per Zumba instructor may vary, here’s what you can usually expect to learn once you sign up:

Classic Zumba

Classic Zumba, also known as Zumba Fitness, is the basic high-intensity dance-based workout with Latin and African roots. Expect a relaxed atmosphere, fun music, and moves that’ll have you sweating and testing your stamina. 

Special kinds of Zumba classes

If you want something beyond the classic Zumba lessons, ask your instructor about any of the following:

• Step Zumba - Simply put, this is Classic Zumba meets step aerobics. What’s great about Step Zumba is that it gives your legs and glutes an additional workout. 

• Zumba Toning - While Classic Zumba helps you lose weight, it doesn’t necessarily tone your muscles. This is where Zumba Toning comes in. Here, you’ll use a toning stick as a weight. This crossover between a dumbbell and maracas shapes your arms and lets you participate in the party atmosphere of the class. 

• Aqua Zumba - This style combines water aerobics with Zumba steps. Since this requires you to be in a pool, you’ll need to either have your own swimming pool or go to a public one with your instructor. Aqua Zumba is a terrific option for those who are overweight or who have joint problems yet want to do aerobic exercise. 

• Zumba Gold and Zumba Sentao - Zumba is for everyone, and these special classes prove it. If you or a loved one are advanced in age, suffering from illness, or simply want something easier than Classic Zumba, ask your instructor about Zumba Gold. Meanwhile, Zumba Sentao is designed for those with leg problems or those who wish to do a lesser-intensity exercise program.

• Zumba Kids and Zumbini - Yes, even your kids can enjoy Zumba! Zumba Kids is designed for children aged 4 to 11, while Zumbini is a class for parents and kids aged 0 to 4. Signing up for classes like these can encourage healthy physical expression and set good habits for your kids. 

• Zumba in the Circuit - Unlike the regular Zumba class, this only takes 30 minutes but is more intense. Think of it as a combination between CrossFit and Zumba! 

Online Zumba lessons

If you prefer to take online Zumba lessons, you may need to have a TV or monitor mounted in your living room or home gym so that you can follow the steps easily. These online lessons may be pre-recorded videos, or they may be live classes done via video call.
