Your Zumba Journey Starts in Richfield, Minnesota
Richfield calls itself “The Urban Hometown,” and we can't think of a better place to start something big. Tucked just south of Minneapolis and a short drive from the Mall of America, this welcoming first-ring suburb blends small-town warmth with big-city energy. At Zumba, we believe that same spirit lives in every person who steps onto the dance floor ready to move, connect, and transform. If you've ever dreamed of turning your passion for music and movement into something meaningful, we're bringing that opportunity right to your doorstep.
A City That Already Knows How to Move
Richfield has rhythm in its DNA. From the lively open-streets celebration of PennFest, where live bands and food trucks take over Penn Avenue, to the summer buzz of the Richfield Farmers Market under the Veterans Park pavilion, this community loves to gather, celebrate, and move together. Add in the vibrant Hispanic, Black, Asian, and immigrant communities that give Richfield its rich, global flavor, and you've got the perfect audience for Zumba's infectious international beats. We feel right at home here — and we think you will too, standing at the front of the room.
Why Become a Licensed Zumba Instructor?
Becoming a Licensed Zumba Instructor isn't just about learning choreography — it's about claiming your power and sharing it with others. Imagine leading a class where neighbors from across Richfield come together to sweat, smile, and let loose. You'll help people embrace themselves, build community, and achieve real, positive transformation. No dance experience? No problem. Our Zumba Basic 1 training welcomes everyone, giving you the foundation, confidence, and tools to start teaching right away. It's uplifting, empowering, and honestly just a whole lot of fun.
Trainings Led by Passionate Zumba Education Specialists
Every training is guided by a Zumba Education Specialist (ZES) — an expert whose job is to inspire you, support you, and set you up for success. Our upcoming Richfield trainings take place at CM's Fitness on Penn Avenue, a familiar local spot right in the heart of the community. Whether you're drawn to the energetic Zumba Basic 1 format, the splash and splendor of Aqua Zumba nearby in Coon Rapids, or the momentum-building Jump Start Gold experience, there's a path designed to meet you exactly where you are. Our ZES will be there every step of the way, cheering you on.
Easy to Reach, Easy to Love
One of the best things about training in Richfield? Getting here is a breeze. Minneapolis–Saint Paul International Airport (MSP) sits just about 15 minutes away, and with Interstate 35W, I-494, and the Crosstown all weaving through town, you'll glide into your training day stress-free. There are plenty of nearby hotels, so if you're traveling in from across Minnesota or beyond, you can rest up and arrive ready to shine. After training, celebrate your new chapter with authentic street tacos at Andale Taqueria, French pastries at Patrick's Bakery & Café, or a classic Olive Burger at Sandy's Tavern.
Explore, Recharge, Repeat
When you need to reset between sessions, Richfield delivers. Wander the three-plus miles of trails and boardwalks at the stunning Wood Lake Nature Center, soak up the sunshine at Veterans Memorial Park, or take a peaceful ride along the Nine Mile Creek Regional Trail. A balanced body and a clear mind are part of the Zumba lifestyle — and this city makes it effortless to live well while you learn.
