Why should I attend a Jam?

ZIN™ Jam Sessions allow you to network and meet new instructors and improve your instructor skills by learning different cues, progressions, and choreo.

Types of ZIN™ Jam Sessions

Stylistic Jam Sessions New

Designed to help you learn new stylistic choreos that express your individuality through movement and music.

The Get Down ZIN™ Jam Session is a stylistic variation where you’ll learn up to four new styles and routines to integrate into your Zumba® classes – all inspired by Hip-Hop, R&B, Funk and Pop. You’ll get an understanding of the feeling and history behind each style while mastering the base core moves and the proper technique. These styles are so unique that they are not included in any other ZIN™ Jam session or Zumba® Training.
