Zumba® is the new dance fitness craze that is sweeping the UK.  With varied dance styles from Meringue & Salsa to Bhangra & Belly Dancing they are blended together in to a class with a wonderful party atmosphere.  Zumba® uses the principles of resistance training and fitness interval training to enhance a calorie output.  It is a method of combining easy dance steps with movements that sculpt the body.

Zumba® was created by Beto Perez from Columbia who one day forgot the music for his aerobics class. The only music he had was a selection of CD's from his car. With that mixed bag of music the class he taught proved to be very popular & the rest is history.

It was discovered that a lot of people were intimidated by the traditional method of teaching a fitness class. So in comparison all Zumba® classes are taught with no or minimal verbal queuing & with no pressure from the instructor to perform the steps correctly. The people in the class just follow the moves the instructor is doing but if they can't or don't want to do that move, all they have to do is to do their own thing, keep moving & to have fun fun fun!

Zumba® attracts people of all ages, shapes & fitness levels. There is no dress code (Lycra is NOT mandatory!). Just wear what you feel comfortable in.
