(HBO) - Zumba dance for children is now attracting the active participation of small children. Out of the fifteen clubs and gifted classes, which are being regularly maintained at the Provincial Youth Activity Center, Zumba Kid Club is considered the most outstanding club, creating a healthy and useful playground with great experiences for the children at the age of four to twelve.

Pham Phuong Nhi, a pupil of class 1A2, Nguyen Tat Thanh high school (Hoa
Binh City) has joined the Zumba Kid club since she was in the 4-year-old
kindergarten class. At that time, the distance from the kindergarten to the
club is very close, so it is suitable for her schedule. Now, it takes more than
30 minutes from Nhi's primary school to the club in the school’s bus if not for
other reasons.
However, she really loves zumba dance, so Mrs. Hung, Nhi's mother has decided to allow her child to attend the club
even though the time and conditions of the transportation are not as convenient
as before. She herself has always been attached to the club's activities for
three years, so she highly appreciates the club experience that has brought to
the children. As a result of this, every Monday, Wednesday and Friday afternoons
in nearly a year, after school, Nhi takes a bus to go straight to the club for
the extracurricular activities that has become her indispensable passion.
like Pham Phuong Nhi, more than thirty other members in Hoa Binh Zumba Club
are very passionate about zumba dance and useful experiences of the Club. In
the relaxing atmosphere and cheerful music background, the small children are
guided to continuous and stretching movements, high jumps, twists, hip shaking,
belly sticks, hand-foot-head
coordination with zumba intensity which are suitable for the children to help
their bodies more supple, faster and more spiritual, after a stressful learning
day.
As a land deeply intertwined with human history and Vietnam’s millennia-long journey of nation-building and defence, Hoa Binh is often revered for its epic tales and legends.
Residents of Hoa Binh boast a rich cultural identity, reflected in their unique language, traditional attire, customs, and folk melodies – described as "sweet as honey, clear as a mountain stream.”
Lac Son district’s Vu ban town held the 2025 Truong Kha temple festival on April 12–13 (the 15th–16th days of the third lunar month). Since its revival in 2019, the festival has been organised every three years, preserving valuable intangible heritage while meeting the community’s cultural and spiritual needs.
The clothing of women reflects the culture of the Muong, Thai, Tay, Dao, and Mong ethnic groups in the northern province of Hoa Binh.
Gongs hold a special place in the cultural and spiritual life of the Muong ethnic people in Hoa Binh province. More than musical instruments, they are an indispensable part of community rituals and collective memory, echoing through generations as a spiritual thread linking the past, present, and future.
Preserving and promoting the cultural values of the Muong ethnic group has become an urgent task in the current context, as many traditional values face the risk of fading away. This effort requires not only protecting the cultural identity but also eliminating outdated customs and developing a modern cultural lifestyle, contributing to sustainable values for the Muong community in Hoa Binh province.
The Muong ethnic culture, deeply rooted in Vietnam’s mountainous north, continues to be preserved and revitalised by dedicated individuals and communities determined to safeguard their ancestral identity.
