MIAMI BEACH
"Latin Workout Benefits Cancer Cause"
Zumba Fitness... the aerobics workout with a Latin flavor... drew nearly 1,000 enthusiasts to the Deauville Beach Resort last weekend for Zumbathon...an interactive fundraiser that will benefit breast cancer survivors.

U/Miami News Service
As hundreds of participants milled around trying to find a place on the packed dance floor, Alberto ''Beto'' Perez waited outside the Deauville Beach Resort ballroom on a recent Sunday to make his entrance.
Energy levels rose as a combination of hip-hop, reggaeton and Latin music thumped from the ballroom. The crowd -- from teens in tank tops to seniors in sweat suits -- had come to be a part of Zumbathon, a fundraiser that featured the energetic, Latin-flavored aerobics workout called Zumba.
Suddenly the music and talking stopped when Tanya Beardsley, a Zumba master trainer, grabbed everyone's attention. Perez, the Colombian-born fitness instructor who created Zumba was about to enter the room.
Accompanied by an entourage of Zumba instructors, Perez burst through the ballroom doors, made his way to the stage and kicked off one hour of nonstop Zumba, a frenzied workout that combines several types of popular music beats.
The Zumbathon, held Oct. 29, was sponsored by Zumba Fitness. The company, which has offices in Northeast Miami-Dade, offers training sessions for instructors throughout the United States and internationally.
''It has always been a dream of mine to be able to have all my students and instructors together for one big master class,'' said Perez, ecstatic with the turnout of the 950 participants at the Deauville, 6701 Collins Ave.
''There was a lot of positive energy in the room,'' said Teri Arvesu, 51, who has been taking Zumba for three years at Coral Gables and South Miami gyms. ``It was awesome to see that many people come together for such a good cause. It was much nicer and a more fun way to raise money than doing a walkathon.''
The cause is the Quality of Life Fund, a national organization at Brigham and Women's Hospital in Boston that helps men and women living with breast cancer. Participants paid a $25 entry fee, which will result in a check of more than $20,000 for the fund, Perez said.
''Breast cancer is something that has touched the lives of so many of my students and co-workers who have been with me along the way,'' he said.
In the throng of Zumba enthusiasts was Marion Marker, 78, who has been practicing Zumba for four months at the Jewish Community Center in Aventura. Marker, along with eight other members from her Zumba for Seniors class, held their own during the frenzied workout.
''Zumba is contagious,'' Marker said. ``I might not be able to do the turns like the younger people, but my hair is wet every time I leave, and I have so much fun.''

"Tampa Bay LineDance Classic"
November 2006
Zumba is the big dance/aerobic craze at the moment, and is spreading fast worldwide. And it's easy to see why! First I had seen or heard of it when I filmed this at The Tampa Bay Linedance Classic in November 2006. It is COOL! Junior Willis, Guyton Mundy & his Pop Shop kids are loving it. And watch injured Stella Cabecca at the back! She couldn't have recovered quicker if she had gone to Lourdes!! The instructor at the front is AWESOME!! (Video by Nigel Amon)
