Hello Everyone I hope you had a fantastic Summer and would also like to thank everyone who was involved with the fireworks demonstrations, it was a fabulous success and i was very proud to be leading all of you. The crowd loved it and joined in and it was great to look over a sea of smiling faces. I have put a video on our website http://www.zumbzone.co.uk and will add some more photos soon. We even made the… Read More

Wow........ What an absolutely amazing experience! ZumbaZone were asked by Heart FM to give a Zumba demonstration at the British Fireworks Championships, being held on Plymouth Hoe on the 9th and 10^th (August). When we turned up people were scattered across the grass, standing and sitting, but as soon as we started we began to draw a rapidly growing crowd which, by the end of our all too brief time on stage, was a mass of jumping… Read More

I'm getting really excited about the Zumba party on Friday. I am just putting together the music and it is going to be so much fun! Songs we can dance to together and songs to just boogie on down too! Don't forget it is a social evening not a workout so no trainers...just party clothes! If you would like to request any specific tracks that you love to dance too then message me. Don't… Read More

Tonight the class was really good fun and I enjoyed it very much . I am starting to enjoy the process now rather than being wrapped in the fear of forgetting the choreography or the thought that everyone thinks i am a rubbish instructor. The music went a bit wrong as the sound system was not working properly so we had to use a little cd player which jumped everytime we did. We worked… Read More

Well I will keep my blog short and sweet today.  I went to the Latin Lounge to rehearse but was feeling unwell. Mark took some pictures for my site but then I decided in the interest of preserving my health for the launch that I would not do the full hour. After the class I spoke with Andy - the manager at the Latin Lounge and he suggested I stay around to talk to some of the salsa… Read More

No actual dancing today...although I attempting a mini boogie in my head while  listening to my ipod in the supermarket. Beware of that folks, especially if you are like me and are incapable of remaining still when the music fills your ears.  Yes it's true I was wiggling in line at the Tesco's and yes I am sure s few people noticed but hey I bet they smiled!! Had an inspired thought… Read More

Well, as you have probably read in my previous posts I have been having trouble with footwear. For every day classes normal trainers are fine but if you are doing more then three classes a week I would recommend low tread trainers, sometimes known as fitness trainers but other dance trainers will do. During my research I found some lovely ones for street and hip hop and they would… Read More

Tonight was an excellent class despite the fact that it was on track not to be.... I was running late.. The warm up went great until i realised that i had messed up the choreography a little.  However to my surprise i managed to blag it a bit and the class didn't realise!!! - I THINK - ooh hope you are not reading this. But even if they (you)  did .....they seem to enjoy it . All… Read More

Well today was my first ever class teaching real live paying students. Helen Tite of Core Fitness Falmouth asked me if I would like to practise by co teaching her class with Eve a fellow zumba instructor. At first i thought 'no no no I am not ready'. However Helen convinced me that her class are very friendly, easy going and that sometimes it is easy to practise with strangers....… Read More

Well I am sat here nervously writing this. I am  preparing for my first Zumba class with real live paying customers!! I desperately hope I do not let them down.

I guess because the class it is in Falmouth and I am in Plymouth, if I do completely mess… Read More
