What are the best shoes for Zumba fitness?

What are the best shoes for Zumba fitness?: "- Sent using Google Toolbar"

We wrote the What to wear for Zumba fitness classes post in the Dancemania blog to show people new to Zumba what clothing and footwear was appropriate for it, and that was a year ago. Now it would seem the flood gates have opened as we are receiving huge amounts of telephone enquiries from people wanting to know which shoes are the best for Zumba. The story is the same in our shop, people arriving in their droves desperate to find the best shoes for Zumba.

In our experience there is no "one fits all" answer to this question as people's abilities and requirements are unique to them, so it is best to talk to an experienced dance shoe advisor in person. But not everyone can get to the Dancemania shop in person, so to those who cannot we wrote the What are the best shoes for Zumba fitness? blog post.

This post was written for those who are using Zumba purely as an excercise and not as a dance hobby and so the shoes recommended in the post are sneaker style. Obviously, dancers would be looking for shoes more in keeping with the dance style such as latin sandals, but we didn't want to over complicate the message and stuck to sneaker style shoes.

We hope that you read this blog post and find it useful.
