Frequently Asked Questions
Is Zumba Fitness / Zumba Toning suitable for me?
Absolutely! Classes are suitable for anybody and every body. It's not a competition, just work to your own level.
If you have any health concerns and would like to discuss them before considering coming along please feel free to contact me on 07899 931376.
Is pre-booking required?
Yes. Please book your place through Gymcatch (link available on 'Class Details' page).
What should I wear to class?
Leggings, joggers, tshirt , vest - obviously not worn all at once! Definitely a good sports bra for the ladies. You need to be comfortable but also be able to move that fabulous body of yours.
Do I need to bring anything with me?
First and foremost you need to bring a drink with you (water or squash is ideal). Maybe a towel to mop your sweaty brow from all that shimmying. With the current situation regarding COVID-19 I would suggest bringing hand sanitiser too.
Most importantly bring your smiles with you as you'll be using them all the way through our classes.
Do I need any equipment?
Zumba - you won't need anything other than your fabulous self.
Zumba Toning - ideally you should have your own Zumba Toning sticks. These can be purchased from me for £10 per Green set. Heavier Purple sticks can be ordered on request. However, sticks will still be available at class for you to use. They will be sanitised before and after each class but please ensure you sanitise your hands too
How will the Zumba Fitness / Zumba Toning class make me feel?
On an emotional level, I'd personally say exhilarated! The classes make me feel happy. It's that combination of thoroughly enjoying myself dancing and feeling a great connection / community vibe with everyone in the class.
Do I need to lose weight / be fit or in shape / a certain age to join the classes?
If you are able to get to a class then you're able to participate! All of my classes have a wide range of ages, shapes, sizes and abilities. Everyone works at a level that suits them. Want to come and shake your stuff and have a laugh - great. Want to do all of that and really push yourself - that's fabulous too, go for it.
If it helps, I'm not really seen as looking like your average Fitness Instructor but I am your average woman. I may be classed by some as a ‘big girl’ but at the end of the day size really is no indication of someone’s fitness, strength and power. I’m fit and strong and will give you a good workout.
Come and give it a try - at worst you lose an hour or so of your time, at best you thoroughly enjoy yourself, gain new friends and get a fab workout to boot.
Feeling a little apprehensive about coming to class?
It's easy for me to say 'don't worry, you'll be just fine', but really - you will! I have an amazing group of participants at each class, they're really friendly and you will feel immediately at home and welcomed.
How much are classes and how do I pay?
Is there any parking available?
Both of my venues have free parking.
Ormiston (OSCA) has a huge car park. There is also an overspill area and should the school have a function on they open up the basketball courts for extra spaces.
Sunday - RSA Academy, Tipton
RSA also has a huge car park directly outside the building.
