Are you considering becoming a Zumba instructor? Congratulations on making the decision to follow your passion and help others stay fit! Here are some tips to help you become a successful Zumba instructor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The first step to becoming a Zumba instructor is to get licensed. Zumba offers classes that will teach you the basics of Zumba and prepare you to teach classes. I’d start with Basics 1 (B1) as it’s really all you need to start teaching as a licensed ZIN. You’ll notice that some people say they are Zumba Certified, there is no Zumba cert, it’s only being licensed. Make note of that because you will get flamed if you say otherwise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Having a great attitude is essential for any successful Zumba instructor. We call it “good vibes.” Make sure to be friendly and welcoming to all your students, no matter their skill level. Smiling and encouraging your students will help them feel more comfortable and will help create a positive atmosphere. You’ll find that most participants are there looking to have a great time, all you have to do as the instructor is facilitate that great time. If they are in class, they are ready to receive that!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Before each class, take the time to review your work. Make sure to choose music that is fun and upbeat and choreograph moves that are easy to follow. I cannot emphasize how important music and choreo are to teaching a successful Zumba class.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
