Ashley Judd recently showed off her Zumba skills at the 2015 Zumba Convention, which was held in Orlando, Florida. According to Entertainment Tonight, the "Eye of the Beholder" star was scheduled to be a keynote speaker for the event.

However, Judd wowed everyone at the Zumba convention by donning some workout gear herself and even doing some moves. Adorned in the uber small pairs of boy shorts and a gold sports bra with black accents, Judd strutted her Zumba moves for the convention attendees.

While up on stage, the 47-year-old actress' slim, tight abs were clearly visible, along with her firm, muscular arms and legs. A bright, effortless smile was on Judd's face as she strutted her Zumba best alongside her Zumba instructor and personal friend, Laura Boyd.

Judd seems to have stolen the spotlight at the Zumba convention. Staff members of the Hyatt Regency in Orlando, where Judd stayed during the convention, commented on Twitter that the movie star's zumba moves "were the talk of the town," states Spread It.

She recently shared her love of Zumba on Facebook, encouraging others to try it too. On a post dated July 29, Judd writes:

"Well, y'all, I've mentioned I found Zumba, and that I love it.... If you haven't tried Zumba yet, consider stretching yourself and making a class. If the instructor does light you up with joy, try a few others until one tickles your spirit."

She also mentioned in her post that Zumba was initially something to do to exercise her brain but turned out to be much more fun. "It has transcended brain work and become an experience of effervescent JOY," wrote Judd.

Besides Zumba, Judd also does yoga and goes on wild adventures to maintain a healthy body and happy lifestyle. The Kentucky-based star told Women's Health that yoga, meditation, hiking and journaling help her keep grounded and sane.

According to the Inquisitr, Judd practices a special form of yoga, known as Vinyasa flow yoga. From the pictures, Judd posts on her official Instagram account, Vinyasa flow yoga involves a lot of acrobatics and control.
