I'd Tried All Sorts of Exercise. Nothing Quite Hit the Spot. I was in my 40s when I first discovered Zumba, and it certainly wasn't because I hadn't tried other ways of keeping fit. I'd done legs, bums and tums. I'd tried yoga. I'd even given running a go — and quickly discovered that running and I were never going to have a particularly happy relationship! There was nothing necessarily wrong with any of these activities. They just weren't quite what I was looking for.

Growing up, I spent countless hours listening to my parents' record collection. While other children were discovering the latest chart hits, I was fascinated by the sounds coming from those vinyl records spinning on the turntable. The energy, the musicianship, the emotion and the sheer joy of the music captured my imagination and never really let go.

There’s something really special about our classes. Whether you join me in Shoreham, Henfield, Worthing, Brighton, Burgess Hill or Southwick… whether you come to Zumba Gold, Lift & Laugh, Mash-Up or Zumba… you’re part of something bigger than “just a class”. You’re part of a community 💛 And now it’s time to bring everyone together to our disco party Shoreham.
