1. Tell us more about yourself and your profession.

I am Vithya Naganathan, born in Tamil Nadu, India to Yasothai and Naganathan. I graduated from PSG College of Technology, Coimbatore.

I hold a master's degree in manufacturing and am currently pursuing my doctorate in mechanical engineering.

Dance and classical singing being my passion I took Zumba as my secondary profession. I am a karate instructor with a black belt and I love playing Veena.

2. What is your fitness mantra?

My fitness mantra is dance!

For me, it's a self-expression that gives me discipline in my health.

3. What are some of the major misconceptions about diets and exercises?

Bodybuilding supplements advertised on social media really work...

Nothing will work until you and your mind works for it.

4. How can one maintain a healthy lifestyle?

Dance regularly and be physically active, get enough sleep, limit unhealthy foods and eat healthy meals.

 

5. How can one build a successful career in Zumba?

If you have a passion for Latin American dance and would like to teach people how to live healthier lives by incorporating it into their workout routine, you may consider becoming a Zumba Instructor. And always ask me how.

 

6. What is one piece of advice you would give someone who wishes to lose weight?

One of the best ways to lose body fat is through dancing and steady cardio — such as brisk walking — for at least 30 minutes most days of the week. Some people may require more physical activity than this to lose weight and maintain that weight loss. Any extra movement helps burn calories.

People who exercise regularly and eat a balanced diet tend to do so because it gives them an enormous sense of well-being. They feel more energetic throughout the day, sleep better at night, have sharper memories, and feel more relaxed and positive about themselves and their lives. Happy ZUMBA always.
