Frequently Asked Questions

What is Zumba?

Zumba is a Latin-inspired dance fitness programme that combines energetic choreography with upbeat music. It's designed to feel more like a dance party than a workout — making it one of the most popular fitness classes in the world.

Is Zumba suitable for beginners?

Absolutely. Zumba is for everyone, regardless of fitness level or dance experience. Classes are structured so you can jump in, follow along, and go at your own pace. Most people find they pick it up within their first or second session.

Is Zumba still a thing?

Absolutely. Zumba is very much still a thing — and thriving. With millions of participants across 180+ countries, it remains one of the world's most popular group fitness classes. In London especially, demand for fun, social, dance-based workouts has only grown. If anything, people are rediscovering Zumba as the antidote to repetitive gym routines — and our classes in Southwark are a testament to that.

Do I need to know how to dance?

Not at all. Zumba is a fitness class, not a dance class. The focus is on moving, having fun, and getting your heart rate up — not perfecting technique. All moves are taught step by step.

How many calories does Zumba burn?

Most people burn between 300–600 calories in a 45-minute Zumba class, depending on intensity and fitness level. Because it's so enjoyable, you'll often push harder without even realising it.

Is Zumba low impact?

Standard Zumba includes some higher-impact movements, but our instructors always offer lower-impact modifications. It's suitable for most fitness levels, and you are always encouraged to work at a pace that feels right for you.

How often should I do Zumba?

Even once a week makes a real difference. Zumba is proven to boost mood, reduce stress, and support mental wellbeing — and you'll feel it from your very first class. Show up consistently and the physical benefits follow too: improved cardiovascular fitness, better coordination, and a stronger, more toned body. One class a week is a brilliant place to start. Two or three is where the magic really happens.

What should I wear to a Zumba class?

Wear comfortable, breathable activewear and supportive trainers with good lateral movement (cross-trainers work best). Bring a water bottle — you will need it!

How big are the classes?

We keep our class sizes small to ensure everyone gets the most out of each session and the energy stays high.

Where are you located?

We're based in Southwark, SE1, a short walk from Borough, London Bridge, Southwark, and Waterloo stations. Full directions are on our contact page.

How do I book a Zumba class?

Book directly online via our timetable. If you have a membership or class pack, simply select your class and check out.

What is your cancellation policy?

Classes can be rescheduled up to 24 hours before the start time. No refunds are offered for missed or late-cancelled classes.
