Urinary incontinence: No, Zumba dancing is good for you. You need to find out if you are having a urinary problem

Stress incontinence: Zumba is very energetic. Stress incont. can also occur with coughing, sneezing or jumping. Best to consult a urologist or uro-gynecologist. In the mean time you could try Kegel exercises. This involves squeezing the buttocks together as well as the pelvic floor muscles as if contracting to rectum to prevent a bowel movement. 10 contractions, hold 10 seconds 5x/day standing, lying or or sitting
