What is Zumba Convention?
ZinCon (the event’s short name) is a multi-day event that Zumba (the company) organizes. The event features a variety of sessions: from flavor sessions to all-day trainings. There are also special events like the Fitness Concert and Theme Party. Check out the links below to learn more about what the sessions and special events are like.
What Is Zumba Convention Like?
It’s an experience that is not only educational but so much fun! It’s a whirlwind of dancing, learning, dancing, singing, dancing, shopping, and of course…more dancing. The energy is super positive and upbeat. It’s almost like there’s an electricity in the air charging everyone.
I’ve been attending ZinCon since 2011, and I’ve blogged about it every year. Click here to visit my list of Zumba Convention posts. You can see pictures from some of the sessions and hear about the overall experience. I even made vlogs for the 2015 ZinCon, which are available at the end of each post.
Or you can check out my Zumba Convention YouTube playlist to watch my vlogs about the event:
Who Can Attend Zumba Convention?
Current ZIN members (Zumba instructors) with accounts in good standing at the time of the event. Click here to read about my Zumba Basic 1 training, which is what you’d need to do to join the ZIN network.
Where is Zumba Convention Held?
The event is typically held every year in Orlando, FL. Over time, Zumba has offered ZinCons in Los Angeles and even France. But, Orlando has been the only location used on an annual basis so far.
Usually, the official related buildings are: The Hyatt, Orlando Convention Center, The Hilton, The Rosen – sessions are typically held between the OCC and these hotels. And the hotels are usually part of the recommended hotels – they usually have convention prices you can get by booking your hotel from your registration confirmation email.
