Drums/Step/ Zumba

Drums/zumba/step is a part of Eliot's rythmic/dance Unit. It combines the 4 parts of traditional Zumba movements (Cumbia, Salsa, Reggaeton, and Merengue) with drumming movements (on stability balls) for a TOTAL body workout. This program was created by Beto Perez, the creator of Zumba.

Objectives:

1. Students will exhibit motor movement patterns which combine Zumba/step/drum movements to rhythmic culturally diverse music selections.

2. Students will be able to describe the benefits of cardiorespiratory endurance exercise. (See Step Aerobics Unit).

3. Students will participate meaningfully to increase fitness levels through self enjoyment & self expression in movement & dance.
