Zazia comments on the Zumba Demonstration held on Saturday 20th September @ St Laurence Centre in Catford, London to celebrate World Peace Day.  This was a fundraising event where all proceeds went to St Christopher's Hospice and Handicap International:

"You were just great.  You were quite impressive and we all like you entering into the spirit and enticing and encouraging everyone to join in.  It was quite dynamic but nothing like the usual 'aerobics'.  I don't know whether you noticed but even our oldest members who usually shy away from any kind of physical demonstration took to the floor." - Zazia Pratt - President of Soroptimist International Lewisham and South East London 

"Don't rely on the British weather to get you in the summer mood!  The songs you dance to in Zumba  give you a summery feeling and uplifts your mood no matter the weather.  You're guaranteed a great workout and sweat without even realising it, because you really do get lost in the music!  The funky dances, the music, the friendly atmosphere and Bianca's enthusiasm make me look forward to the class all week!  There is no reason to be shy in class.  I never thought I would be belly dancing and 'booty shaking' in public without being embarrased.

P.S.  The only bad thing about Zumba is...my class is only once a week!!" - Emma 

"I think the Zumba class is really great!  The moves are original and funky.  The classes run at really good times in the evening, which I personally can easily attend after work and still have time to eat.  The atmosphere is really great, everyone is really nice and enjoy themselves.  It's like a really big party.  The teaching style is really good even though Bianca shows us what to do, you can feel free to do what your body feels to do.  Bianca is nice and approachable.  Her dance moves are original so you will never get bored.  She always makes you feel welcome and makes you become part of the dance class straightaway.  While I have been doing the Zumba class, I have toned up quite well and have lost some weight with the help of a balanced diet.  To sum it all up, we have great fun, laughter and enjoyment.  Come and have a go!!!" - Bianca (student)

"Zumba is great for all ages.  You burn calories and tone your body without knowing it.  I like going to my Zumba class because not only do I get to keep fit, I also meet new people and have fun, all in 1 class.  Thumbs up for Zumba!"  -  Renae

"Really enjoy the class. It is always fun and full of energy!  It's relaxing as you stay focused on the moves but fun at the same time." - Michaela

"It has taken me years to find a form of exercise I enjoy and keep doing.  I love Zumba as I get to dance, have fun and exercise at the same time.  The class has a really nice vibe and Bianca is completely MAD - which I love!!!" - Rachel

"It's really fun to try out a new kind of exercise and dancing.  The classes go really quickly and are a great workout.  They really get your heart pumping!" - Hannah 

"I have been to many aerobics classes, however, Zumba is very different.  I absolutely love the music.  The dance moves are very energetic and fun to do.  You will get a proper workout with Zumba while having so much fun.  I would definetly recommend it to anyone who wants to get fit in a very fun and active way." - Mierembe

“When I read the website, I remember it saying that you should let your body be taken over by the music and let it do what it wants to do.  I didn’t really understand it, but after attending your class, I totally get what it is saying!  I felt like I was at a carnival and it was a lot of fun!” - Laigh
