Zumba is an aerobic fitness program created by Miami-based dancer and choreographer Beto Perez and two entrepreneurs, Alberto Perlman and Alberto Aghion. It originated in Colombia in the 1990s and as of 2009[update] is taught by some 20,000 instructors in 35 countries.[1][2]
Classes use music based on salsa, merengue, cumbia, reggaeton and other music.[1]
