The chords for a Zumba que Zumba:
Dm A7 Dm Dm
Cm6 D7 Gm Gm
Gm E7 A
Gm Dm A7 Dm
As you can see there are a couple of chords which are colored red. This is a segment where the chords played are not part of the tonic but part of the dominant or fifth. Essentially what happens here is we are switching briefly to an interval using chords relating to the dominant and then later coming back following the original key.
