I will have a few spares available in the class, that you can also trial with.

Frequently Asked Questions
I am a total beginner, can I start in any of the classes? YES! The dance moves in a Zumba® class are really easy to follow. Concentrate on getting the feet right first before you add in the arms. Once you have been a few times you will start to recognise the movements and your body will begin responding a lot quicker! Each time you come the better you will become. For some people it is instant for others it will take a few weeks. And in terms of fitness, you know your body the best so you know how far you can push it. There are plenty of ways you can adapt the movements to make it suit you. Please let your instructor know before class if you have any injuries or health concerns.
What do I wear/bring? Wear comfortable clothes that you can sweat and move in. Footwear should be supportive with the least amount of grip possible. For the ultimate in Zumba® gear click here. Bring a sweat towel and a bottle of water and your good to go!
How many times of week should I do Zumba®? If you are looking to receive health benefits like, strengthening your core, loosing excess weight, toning up, increasing your fitness etc... then the recommendation would be three times a week. It is important that you do a one hour high intensity workout three times a week to reap health benefits. If you are unable to get to Zumba three times a week then supplement it with other types of exercise like hill walking, running, cycling, swimming etc...
