Zumba is a Latin-inspired fitness class, designed with both low and high intensity moves to get you dancing those calories away in a super fun workout.
If you like a good boogie and want to dance your way to a fitter body, Zumba will be the ideal fitness class for you. Invented in Colombia during the 1990s, you’ll be jiving away to your favourite music using choreographed dance moves that take inspiration from salsa, samba, and mambo dancing. Each class combines these moves with a full body cardio exercise experience to help you reach those fitness goals and have fun while you do it.
In every class you’ll be led by a Zumba expert to ensure you hit just the right beat with just the right moves to groove your way through a muscle toning and cardio strengthening session that engages all your muscle groups. Not only that, but improve your stamina, flexibility and balance while you do so!
More information about our Zumba Classes.
Zumba is one of those unique exercise classes that everyone enjoys, no matter your fitness goals or whether you’re a beginner or not. Nothing beats a good boogie!
You’ll love Zumba because it is beginner friendly, with easy to learn steps, meaning it is an attractive choice for everyone. That includes people that don’t normally take to a dance floor. Not only that, but Zumba provides attendees with a full-body workout that is easy on the joints and muscles while still providing you with fitness benefits. Say goodbye to high impact exercises that put pressure on your joints and hello to a fun and creative way to stay fit.
The best bit? Zumba has proven itself time and time again to be a great way to workout regardless of age. A lot of our older attendees love it as a way to stay fit while taking most of the risk away from exercising as a senior.
Finally, Zumba is a fantastic class for getting to know like-minded people. Of all our classes, Zumba has a natural social aspect to it due to its dancing roots.
Zumba has a wide variety of benefits for all those that chose to partake. Aside from being a fun, different style of class, Zumba has been known to:
Be exceptional for weight loss. For those on a weight loss journey and are considering Zumba as your class of choice, you’ll be pleased to know an hour session of Zumba can burn anywhere from 600 to 1,000 calories. But just like any fitness class, you only get out what you put in!
Be great for body toning. Zumba is one of the unique workout classes we provide that works the full body, rather than focussing on one particular section of the body or type of fitness. Zumba helps you tone a whole host of muscle groups without necessarily adding weight in the form of muscle mass.
Be fantastic for metabolism and cardiovascular health. Zumba is not an easy class by any stretch of the imagination. Is it fun? Yes! Is it easy? Only if you take it easy! A full-length, 1 hour Zumba class will raise your metabolism and keep your heart pumping. This is ideal for improving your heart’s ability as a muscle to pump blood around your body, improving its efficiency at its job. Not only that, but a full session will help you improve lung capacity and stamina too.
Improve coordination and balance. Moving your arms and legs in time to the beat while doing specific moves is a superb way to improve your bodily coordination and work on your overall balance. This will help you in everything from walking up the stairs at work to whatever other fitness classes you are thinking of taking.
Most importantly, Zumba has the benefit of helping you de-stress and have fun!
The joy with Zumba is that it incorporates a whole host of different moves from different disciplines to keep every session fresh and engaging. From mambo, salsa, and samba moves to hip hop moves, belly-dancing, and even basic martial arts moves - each class is a chance to get moving and challenge your inner dancer.
Not known for being smooth on your feet? Zumba will change that! We don’t just have a motto, we mean it: ‘ditch the workout, join the party’. Why sweat it out with repetitive workout exercises and sessions when you can groove to the beat. Take part in a fun filled workout session and boogie to some funky music!
One thing we get asked quite often by beginners is what to wear to a Zumba class. Zumba is all about dancing and shaking to the beat as you sweat out those calories. Keep this in mind, as you’ll need to dress for the occasion. Light fabrics such as cotton or mesh are ideal, with comfy shoes that provide plenty of support to the sole of your foot. Try to find shoes without laces, or if you can’t, be sure to tie them tight (with a double knot if needed) to ensure they stay where they are meant to!
Les Mill Barre
Want to take your dancing skills to a new and exciting level? Les Mills Barre is the ideal class for you! Barre combines classic ballet positions with high repetitions and light weights, to tone your body and help you get into shape as you do so.
Les Mills BodyJam
BodyJam by Les Mills is a fantastic class for those who want to work out but express their more fun, creative side too. Break out those dance moves as you slay calories - not just the dance floor. Groove to a playlist of hits and have a blast while you blitz those calories in style.
Les Mills Sh’Bam
If you’re more interested in a sassy style of dance fitness, then Les Mills Sh’Bam is ideal for you. Work your way through sessions with our dance experts in a class that combines dance moves with cardio - with a focus on improving cardiovascular health while blitzing calories.
