#1 My Favorite

Everyone who does Zumba dance would want the best shoes to make each movements perfect without hurting the knees. 

The RYKA Women’s Influence Aerobics Shoe is one great shoe for Zumba. It has all the features designed to fit the woman’s foot. 

The upper synthetic material is very lightweight and it allows the foot to breathe through during dance routines. The design of the pivot points provides the foot the ability to make twists and turns without causing pain to the knees and ankle. The rotational grip is designed to allow the foot to slide and glide and stop when needed. 

The shoe has a wide toe area, side support for lateral movements and arch support, comfortable and soft inner part, and a great overall color coordination in shoe laces, heels, and sole. 

TIP: The size runs half size small so we advise you to get your pair at half size or one size bigger than your sneaker size if you are using socks.

The size, the weight, and the style will allow your feet to do the footwork required in Zumba dances.
