    you can keep it low impact, just don't "bounce" quite as much. :)

    It can be high inpact if u dance that way but they tell u to take it at ur own pace. I do Zumba but I used to do it at the gym so at home I try to go all in I come out sweatin and all but it so much fun!!!! Hope u find it enjoyable!!

    I would say it depends on the individual, but I would say low impact because both feet are usually planted on the ground. High impact is when both feet consistently leave the ground, and the individual is doing a lot of hopping and bouncing.

    Zumba is what you put into it. You make it high or low impact.

    Both !!!!
    I do Zumba twice a week at the gym, one day, i go all out, and on the second day, I take it kind of easy, You set the tone for your body. I love it most of the weight that I lost and body toning is from me going to zumba, I tell you one thing you wont be bored.:happy:
