There are numerous Zumba® Instructor training session options available. You can register for either an in person, on-demand or live-streamed Zumba® Instructor training course to obtain your Zumba® License.

In person Zumba® training classes are energetic and informational sessions that allow you to meet and connect with other motivated individuals who have the same goal and passion as you — to inspire their community and others to have fun while exercising. You'll have the opportunity to interact with your instructor and ask questions throughout the training session. It's easy to search for an in person training course near you in Rhode Island.

Registering for an online instructor training session is an excellent option for people who need flexibility to complete the instructor course at home. Here's what you can expect out of the two virtual licensing options to be a Zumba® Instructor:

• On-demand: Signing up for the on-demand Instructor course allows you to complete the 10-hour program on your own time. You'll have access to 16 modules that include helpful Zumba® materials, a one-month membership to the Zumba® Instructor Network and the ability to communicate with an online coach throughout your program. On-demand programs are available in multiple languages, including English, Spanish, French, Portuguese, Korean, German and Italian. You'll have your Zumba® License after you complete this program.
• Livestream: The livestream Zumba® Instructor program is an excellent option for people who want to complete the program from home but want real-time interaction like an in person course. You'll communicate with your instructor and other participants via Zoom. This program lasts between one and two days, and you'll have your Zumba® Instructor License after you finish the program.
