With rhythmic and easy-to-follow moves, Zumba is a fashionable workout dance that incorporates music and intermittent aerobic exercises. Zumba is a form of fitness that evolved from dance, which combines various forms of South American dance, such as Samba, Cha-Cha, Salsa, Reggae, Flamenco, and Tango. The word "Zumba" originated from the Colombian slang meaning "fast movement". A 60-minute Zumba fitness class is divided into several stages with different rhythm intensities. It is relaxing and entertaining even for dance beginners.

On March 8, 2023, Meijing Group organized a unique festival activity with the theme of "Happy Zumba Dance" for all female employees, who can thus enjoy the fun of sports and feel free to express their beauty in movements on this special day for females.

The activity was divided into three parts, with nearly 250 female employees participating in 11 groups. At the beginning of the class, dressed in energetic sportswear, they followed the instructions of four coaches and started the warm-up movements with passionate and dynamic music.

They began with some slow-paced movements and then changed to more distinctive and quick-paced Zumba rhythms as the music built up to a rousing climax. As their movements got quicker and more powerful, they experienced the excitement of the dance, during which they released the pressure and sweat profusely.

The Zumba dance teaching started after participants enjoyed the snacks and fruits. During that, they learned simple, interesting, and easy-to-follow movements, such as hops, arm waving, swings, claps, and head shaking, which helped them set aside their busy work and completely relax while sensing the music mood and understanding the unique rhythms.

Finally, they performed what they learned during the class. Members of these 11 groups from different posts and departments of the Meijing Group showcased surprising vitality and dynamics in their dance. Slowly, the music grows into a gentle mood, and their dance movements became softer. After the Zumba class, these female employees, though still sweating, took a group photo after the energetic dance, which was inspirational and refreshing for them.

March is a beautiful season, just like the female employees of the Meijing Group striving forward to achieve outstanding performance and showcase the brilliance of women in today's world. They are both family supporters and career women, and they deserve our greetings and respect, especially on this day in graceful springtime. Meijing Group has always been very caring for female employees. In addition to the International Women's Day activities, it also regularly organizes exclusive theme activities for them to cheer for women's individual development in the new era.

Let's look forward to the next International Women's Day!
