Looking for a shoe to wear for your zumba class? Here's my best pick....

I decided that the best all-around, best performing shoe for zumba that is comfortable right out of the box  is the Ryka Studio Flex Low. 


Here they are and they come in black and white:

Ryka - Studio Flex Low (White/Chrome Silver/Angel Blue) - Footwear
Ryka - Studio Flex Low (White/Chrome Silver/Angel Blue) - Footwear
Ryka - Studio Flex Low (Black/Steel Grey) - Footwear
Ryka - Studio Flex Low (Black/Steel Grey) - Footwear


Ryka - Studio Flex Mid (White/Chrome Silver) - Footwear
Ryka - Studio Flex Mid (White/Chrome Silver) - Footwear


Why is this the best pick?
  1. They are cross-trainers so they give you the correct support for an aerobics fitness class such as zumba.
  2. They fit true to size and do not run narrow like the Nike shoes.
  3. They are well cushioned so you do not even have to put an alternate insole in the shoe.
  4. They are very lightweight which is important because zumba has alot of fast footwork.
  5. They have minimal tread on the bottom of the shoe, just enough for a little traction for those jumping moves, but smooth enough to pivot and do those twisting and gliding zumba moves.
  6. They have a nice mesh upper that allows your foot to breathe. 
  7. Ryka shoes are made especially for a woman's foot. (Sorry guys but you can check out my top zumba shoes for men)
Okay, so they are not the most colorful shoes but you can pop them with some colorful shoelaces!

If you cannot decide on what shoes to get for your zumba class you will not go wrong with the Ryka - Studio Flex Low or Ryka - Studio Flex Mid.
