Just wanted to say how much I enjoyed Zumba last night.  The music was fantastic, the moves fun to learn, and the atmosphere electric!  So great to dance around like a mad woman and work out at the same time… See you in January for more shimmy-ing, shaking and stomping!! Rachel

I didn't even mind getting so sweaty!  It's really inspiring when your teacher is having such a great time as wellThank you so much for bringing Zumba to Buckden....roll on January!!  Kelly

Just to say thanks for a very entertaining & fun-filled fitness session last night. It was my first ever experience of ZUMBA and what a laugh!!!!!!! A definite "feel good factor" workout. It was great to see so much support after all the effort you have put in in bringing ZUMBA to Buckden. Life's never going to be the same!!!!!!!!!!! Jane

What a fantastic night of ZUMBA! Thank you. Have been trying to do a class for months at the local leisure centres but they are always booked so when you said that you would be running a Zumba class I was so excited! It was great to see so many different people there to shake away! Will definitely be joining you for ZUMBA in the New Year.  Thanks for getting me excited about exerciseJane x

Zumba Fitness… For the NOT so FIT or ABLE! By Helen Packer…

Zumba Fitness...  For the NOT so FIT or ABLE!  By Helen Packer...Ever thought you would like to try a Zumba class but not sure if you could manage because of some medical condition? I have shied away from exercises classes for a long time thinking I wouldn’t be able to manage and would be embarassed if I couldn’t keep up with the rest of the class but decided to give Zumba a go – admittedly at first it is quite a challenge but I have persevered and enjoy the music and benefits of the exercise.

You may be asking what is my  medical condition  - I have had 2 hip replacements and have osteoporosis in my knee (the crunching and grinding noises in my knee have considerably reduced – possibly as a result of weight bearing exercise).  The most important thing is to know your own limits, nobody takes any notice when I alter some of the routine to suit myself  i.e., I can’t do bending forward too low so I adjust and I certainly don’t use the hand held weights.  Also if a routine is too difficult I just keep moving to the music.   Zumba is good fun and I have been going for a few months now and intend to keep going.
