I did my original fitness teaching course with the idea to do this as a second job to my main career in finance.......however things didn't pan out like that and after being made redundant in 2010 I decided to give the fitness thing a shot as a full time career...
I started out really small working in gyms and then teaching my own tiny aerobics and tone class one evening a week...
Then Zumba came along....it was massive at that time..there were Zumba classes going on in every school hall every evening.....with literally hundreds of people going to them....so in December 2010 I headed to London for the day and did my Zumba course...
January 2011 I just went for it and put on 4 Zumba classes a week....my first class I will never forget......something like 70 people showed up!!!
It was a crazy time but I will always be grateful to Zumba as it helped me get Keep fit with Kelly off the ground and now I have diversified and teach lots of other things.....it has grown massively BUT
I still have 4 Zumba classes a week on my timetable and I LOVE them.......one is Zumba Gold which is for the older participant and is a little slower.....but it is a great concept...
You don't have to be a great dancer...just be able to move and love music....
Come and give a Zumba or a Zumba Gold class a try..
