Zumba dance, which uses Latin music, is a globally popular exercise.

Thankyou BUBU’s workout using Zumba is a fun dance that will have you smiling thanks to the cheerful Latin vibe! Movements like stepping side to side while opening your arms and legs help burn fat across your whole body, so they’re highly recommended.

It only takes about five minutes, so it’s perfect for beginners to dance-based dieting.

Why not give it a try?

On Mama TV, there’s a simple diet dance video that uses a twisting motion of the arms and legs while stepping side to side.

Compared to other hand-clap dances and the like, the tempo and movements aren’t very intense, making it perfect for people who aren’t used to exercising much.

By the way, the video on YouTube is oddly surreal, featuring a man wearing an apron and a horse head.

The fact that you might find yourself laughing while you dance is another recommendation point! (lol)

Speaking of diet dances, it seems that quite a few use royalty-free music or songs that aren’t very well-known in Japan.

On the other hand, some people might feel, “I want to boost my motivation for dieting, so I’d prefer a diet dance set to the K-pop I usually listen to.” If that’s you, I recommend a dance routine using BLACKPINK’s 2020 hit “How You Like That.” The structure matches the song: it starts with a warm-up and gets intense at the chorus, making it a very efficient and highly recommended workout!

Shirlyn Kim’s “CRAZY FUN Dance” is a refreshing workout set to BTS’s 2021 release, “BUTTER”! This dance is perfect for those who want a moderate workout to their favorite music rather than an intense fat-burning session.

It features cute moves like clasping your hands as if you’re pleading, making it especially recommended for women.

Since there are many high-knee movements, it also seems effective for shaping your legs!

Zumba dance was created by Colombian dancer and choreographer Alberto “Beto” Perez.

Because you can burn fat by stepping side to side to Latin music, it’s gaining attention worldwide as a dance for weight loss.

How about trying a longer, 50-minute Zumba session? In YouTube videos, the music—like EDM and other easy-to-move-to tracks—keeps changing, so you won’t get bored even if you exercise continuously for 50 minutes!

In conclusion

Some of you may have tried the dance we introduced and found that you just can’t seem to do it the same way—but don’t worry! If you start by copying what you see and simply moving your body, you’ll naturally get better over time. Of course, building your body isn’t just about exercise; a balanced diet and proper rest are essential. But if you feel you’re not getting enough exercise, take this opportunity to give it a try!
