Shall we dance?

For the past few years, Zumba has been a dance that’s popularized to only be catered to titas, titos – basically anyone who’s way older than a millennial. However, Zumba doesn’t have to be meant for a certain age group ’cause it can, in fact, benefit all age groups. Aside from boosting your heart health, reduce your fatigue, improve your alertness as well as coordination, it does a wonderful job of releasing your endorphins – the chemical that makes you happy. If there’s one way to be happier, why wouldn’t you take it?
