First off, I must explain this isn't a place. It's a person. Her name is Rita and she teaches Zumba classes at various locations.
But the one I tried out was taught barefoot on the beach--the Bay actually. It's called Ocean Park. You get there by turning left at the 7-11 not far from Lesner Bridge.
Anyway -- it's sooo much fun and a killer workout. She does the beach classes on Mondays and Wednesdays throughout the summer.
It was only my second time trying Zumba, which is like Latin/hip-hop/world dance moves set to music. Basically shake your booty and burn fat--even more
