How many steps are there in the Zumba dance?

There is not a set number of steps in a Zumba class. Zumba borrows heavily from Latin and Spanish dance, so it uses steps such as the cha-cha, Merengue and Samba.

In Zumba classes, the instructors do not go over each dance step individually. Instead, they do the routine in time to the music and the class participants by simply follow along. Zumba instructors may make motions to help everybody along, but they do not stop the song to explain a move. Zumba is supposed to be fun and like a dance party, not like a traditional workout routine or dance class. There is no wrong way to complete the steps.
