A group of ladies and the occasional gentleman have been meeting up every week at The Beacon, Bar & Restaurant, to attend a Zumba Gold class with Zumba instructor, Pip Daffurn.

Zumba Gold is specially designed class for active older adults or beginners to exercise. It contains all the elements of a usual Zumba class, great Latin and world music, infectious rhythms, and easy to learn moves to a variety of dances.

The most important ingredient is that everyone has heaps of fun. What's special about a Zumba Gold class is that the movements are tailored to suit older adults and it provides an achievable workout for anyone over the age of 50 who is comfortable in walking.

A wide variety of dance styles is covered including, salsa, swing, tango, bolly wood and meringue.

Pip likes to include something a bit extra in her routines and the current favourite dances are a Columbian inspired routine, Indian dance and a fun reggaton dance.

Zumba gold is definitely not just for the older adults. Mums, Dads and students who are just getting back into fitness attend regular Zumba gold classes.
So far in one of Pips Zumba Gold classes the oldest participant has been 85 so it really is for everyone.

'I absolutely love the class. It is great to get the brain and the body working' Louise Jameson – well known TV Actress.

A new Zumba gold class will be starting February 21st, Tuesday evening 7.30 – 8.30pm at Woods, in The Pantiles.

A zumba class for everyone will also be starting at an earlier time of 6'o clock.

    Thanks for posting! Zumbda sounds great - yet to try it but I know lots of people who have and who adore the classes. We'd love to see any pictures you have of a class in action...

    No pictures of the Tunbridge Wells classes as of yet! Will make sure there are some for the future. The Zumba class at Woods Restaurant and Produce Store will be a very pleasing picture! What a great venue to dance on a Tuesday night!

    Please take a look at our website if you would like any information about classes and help support your local dance and Zumba! elysiumdance.co.uk
