Zumba Classes

Zumba began in the 1990’s and is a Colombian dance fitness program created by dancer and choreographer Alberto “Beto” Perez.

Zumba exercises are done to music with fast and slow rhythms, by involving dance and aerobic elements and incorporating hip-hop, soca, samba, salsa, merengue, mambo, martial arts, and some Bollywood and belly dance moves. Squats and lunges are also included to help firm up those thighs and bums!

Around 14 million people take weekly Zumba classes in over 140,000 locations across the globe. A session is typically about an hour long and is taught by instructors licensed with an organization called Zumba Academy.

Zumba has quite the celebrity following,  and it’s popularity can be explained by its adoption by celebrities such as Jennifer Lopez, Eva LaRue, Jennifer Love Hewitt, Natalie Portman, Emma Watson, Victoria Beckham, Halle Berry, Toni Braxton,Nicky Hilton and Wyclef Jean.

Hi, I’m Lisa and welcome to “dance with Lisa”, the fun place to learn Zumba, lose weight, get fit and have a great time!

I’m a registered Zumba Instructor and I hold two fun classes each week on a Monday and Wednesday & at 7pm in Failsworth and Oldham.

The classes are for absolutely everyone, all shapes, sizes and ages! I try to make the classes as fun as possible and love helping my students achieve their goals, whatever they may be, even if it is just to have fun!

The class takes place in a large air-conditioned hall. The lights are down low with disco balls all around!! Lots of my customers say this is what makes the class so much fun and also makes them feel less self-conscious, it’s like being in a nightclub!!

Take a look at some of the comments from people who attend regularly and why not give us a try….your first class is free
