Zumba in Italian – combining fitness and language learning
Feb
As of last October, the Italian Language Centre has introduced an exciting new course that combines fitness with language learning. This unique Zumba class invites participants to stay in shape while immersing themselves in the Italian language. The course features a playlist entirely in Italian, yet retains the traditional rhythms of a typical Zumba session, including salsa, merengue, reggaeton, and cha-cha-cha. This innovative approach has become particularly popular with the Italian community in Brisbane, providing them an opportunity to enjoy current Italian hits, some of which are hot off the charts.
The class is led by Giovanna who is not only a certified Zumba instructor but also an experienced Italian language educator. The aim is to introduce participants to Italian language and culture in a novel and engaging manner. The lessons are designed to be accessible to everyone, regardless of their linguistic or physical abilities. Giovanna ensures that the steps are adaptable to varying skill levels, offering clear guidance that makes learning both effective and enjoyable.
Participants have expressed their enthusiasm for the course, highlighting the welcoming and friendly atmosphere that makes everyone feel comfortable.
