Four steps to enter

It's simpler than you think. Get your class together, hit record, and post.

1
Get your class ready
You need at least 8 students plus yourself — 9 people minimum. Everyone must be wearing at least a Zumba Wear or StrongID top. Bottoms and shoes are free choice.
Students who don't have a ZW top yet? Share your Share & Earn discount link — they get 15% off their order and you earn commission on every sale.
2
Film your Reel
Dance to a song from the latest 2 ZIN™ (Zumba Instructor Network) volumes. Everyone must be clearly visible and dancing. The more energy, the better your chances.
3
Post it right
Post as a Reel or video (not a Story). Tag @zumbaweareurope in the post. Add your gym or studio as the location tag and tag your gym's account in the caption. Include both #ShowYourClass and #ZWChallenge in your caption.
4
Wait for the results
Entries close at the end of the month. A jury selects 1st and 2nd place. Fan Favorite goes to the entry with the most saves — so tell your students to share and save your video!

The scorecard — and how to win

First and second place are scored by a jury out of 30 points. Here's exactly what we look for in each category — and our tips to maximise your score.

Energy and vibe
10 pts
 

Does this video make you want to walk into that class right now? We're looking for contagious joy — the kind that makes people stop scrolling.

Tips to score high
  • Film during the part of your class when energy is highest — end of a peak song, not the warm-up.
  • Hype your class up before you press record. Tell them this is being filmed and encourage them to give everything.
  • Smiles, movement, and eye contact with the camera make an enormous difference. Coach your class to look up.
  • Good audio matters. If filming in a gym, the ZIN track should be loud and clean — not muffled by the room.
ZW & StrongID styling
10 pts
 

We want to see Zumba Wear and StrongID looking their best. A class that looks put-together and proud of what they're wearing scores here. Remember: everyone needs at least a ZW or StrongID top — bottoms and shoes are free choice.

Tips to score high
  • Coordinate colours across the class — matching or complementary ZW tops create a visually stunning frame.
  • Use your Share & Earn link so students can order new tops before filming — fresh ZW tops look better on camera than faded older ones. (counterfeit items? = disqualified from all future entries)
  • Make the ZW logo visible. Position yourself and your front row so the branding is clearly on screen.
Class participation
6 pts
 

How many people are in the video — and how engaged do they look? The minimum is 9 but more people always makes a stronger impression. A class of 20 all dancing in sync scores higher than 9 people going through the motions.

Tips to score high
  • Film on your biggest class day of the week. More people = more points, and a more impressive visual.
  • Tell your class a week in advance that you'll be filming. People plan around it and bring friends.
  • Position everyone so the whole class is visible in frame — don't let people hide at the back or get cut off.
  • Choose a song and routine your class knows and loves — familiarity shows in the confidence and synchronisation.
Video quality & creativity
4 pts
 

A well-shot, well-edited video stands out. You don't need a professional camera — but good framing, decent lighting, and a little creativity in your edit go a long way.

Tips to score high
  • Film in a well-lit space — natural light or a bright studio is far better than a dark gym corner.
  • Use your phone on a tripod or ask someone to film steadily — shaky footage is distracting.
  • A short text intro in the Reel ("📍 [Studio name] · #ZW Challenge") adds context and personality.
  • Keep it under 60 seconds — tight edits perform better on Reels and hold attention.
⭐ Fan favorite — €200
Most saves wins

Fan Favorite is decided entirely by Instagram saves — no jury involved. The qualifying entry with the most saves at the close of the month wins €200 in store credit.

How to promote your entry (without paid ads)
  • After posting, add it to your Stories with a clear call to action: "Save this video to vote for us! ⭐"
  • Send a WhatsApp or class group message asking your students to go and save the Reel — it takes 2 seconds.
  • Ask your students to share the Reel to their own Stories and tag their friends who Zumba — wider reach = more saves.
  • Tag the gym's account in your caption — if the studio reshares it, you reach all their followers too.
  • Post early in the month — more time = more chances for the Reel to be discovered and saved organically.
