Tired of running every day? Well, it's normal. In fact, experts recommend doing sports that complement running to work other muscles and vary your routine. This Saturday you'll have a great opportunity with Zumba Tosh, an event that will bring together about 5000 people to dance for two hours in La Sabana.

Dance? Yes! Zumba takes elements from Latin rhythms like salsa, merengue, cumbia, samba, and reggaeton and incorporates them into choreographies led by an instructor. Scientific studies have found that Zumba burns as many calories as running at an easy pace, so it's an excellent complement to your training. You'll also work on cardio, muscle strength, toning, and flexibility, which will help you when running.

Zumba Tosh will be a mega event with four of the best Zumba instructors in the country. To participate you only need to bring a large package of Tosh cookies or bars. "We want many people to have fun and at the same time share two hours of exercise," said Priscilla Montoya, brand manager for Tosh.

Pozuelo, through the Tosh brand, is running a campaign to promote a healthy lifestyle, good nutrition, and plenty of exercise among people. Zumba Tosh will be this Saturday at 10 a.m. You can see more details about Zumba Tosh on theevent's Facebook.
