Zumba is a Latin inspired, easy to follow, dance-fitness party that exhilarates your senses and works all your major muscle groups in a high energy cardio blast.
Brighton Zumba teaches people of all abilities, ages (minimum 15 years old) and fitness levels. You don't need to be a dancer or have any prior experience, the only thing you have to do is keep moving!
Zumba features exotic rhythms like salsa, merengue, cumbia and samba set to sexy latin and international beats.

Meet Sherryn, Brighton Zumba's instructor
"Hey! I'm Sherryn and I've been teaching Zumba in Brighton since 2010 and after 14 years I still absolutely love teaching each and every class. Before Zumba, I worked as a professional performer in the world of musical theatre, I now teach Zumba and dance full time. I feel very grateful to still be able to teach Zumba after so many years. Many people thought Zumba was just a fad, but my classes prove that Zumba is one of the best dance fitness programmes out there. Come along to a class with me and you'll see why people are still hooked.
I'm a licensed Zumba Fitness instructor (also known as 'ZIN'), a member of REPs, (Register of Exercise Professionals) fully insured and also hold a certificate in sports first aid.
Each year, I organise Brighton's largest Zumbathon charity event. With the help of the amazing Zumba community, we have raised over £100,000 so far for Martlets Hospice and hope to continue to raise much needed funds for this worthwhile local charity.”

“I am fairly new to Zumba, not having done much exercise for the last couple of years. Already during my first lesson with Sherryn, I knew that I had found my thing! She makes you feel so welcome and although the classes can be challenging it’s always fun. Afterwards I feel good about myself.”
“I LOVE Sherryn’s classes. She is a very inspiring, and motivating instructor! She has so much passion and excitement for zumba you cant help but get excited to be there. Its the most fun way to exercise, so much so you don’t even feel like your exercising. She really brings the party to class, and makes everyone feel at ease and comfortable.I recommend her to everyone!!”
“I’ve been meaning to email you to say how much I’m enjoying your Zumba classes. I’ve been coming for about 5 weeks now and honestly I don’t think I stop smiling through the whole class! I really love your choreography, and more so your amazing energy, you really make it. Thanks for making exercising so fun and for rejuvenating the dancer in me!
I absolutely love it :-)”
“Still buzzing from tonight’s class! Endorphin overload!! Your choreography is basically THE BEST (and i have been to a few different classes), last year i joined several different dance classes to get back into dancing, but not one of them had anything on your Zumba classes! I feel I am in an episode of FAME lol. THanks so much! :-)”
“I attended zumba class for the first time here in Brighton and I’ve completely fallen in love with this type of dance. Sherryn’s classes are absolutely most energetic, friendly, enjoyable and amazing, and you really leaves the building with much more energy, great mood and smiling face than you enter in!
Her zumba classes absolutely make my days every single time”
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
How many calories can I burn during a Zumba® class?
The number of calories each person burns per class varies from 300 - 600
Are there any age restrictions?
You must be over 16 to take part in Zumba® Fitness. 13 - 15 year olds can attend if they are accompanied by a parent/guardian.
I have a previous Injury, can I still Zumba®?
Of course you can as long as it is detailed in your Physical Activity Readiness Questionnaire (PAR-Q) and I am made aware of it. When attending class you can take it at whatever pace is comfortable for you. Make sure you make me aware of any new illnesses or injuries before the start of class.
No, Zumba® is designed for everyone, no dance or fitness experience necessary. People of many different ages, body types, backgrounds, dance and fitness levels all come together to have fun and get into fabulous shape with Zumba®.
I’m unfit and have never done Zumba® before?
There is no need to worry if you have never taken part in a Zumba® class before. Zumba® uses a repetition of steps from class to class. Be patient and try it out a few times. After a few classes you will get familiar with the basic steps and my teaching methods. Before long you will be telling me what move is next! Most of all just have fun! There is no right or wrong way in Zumba®.
Should I eat before class?
Absolutely. You must fuel your body throughout the day. Eat a good substantial breakfast, good size lunch, a piece of fruit or light snack an hour before class and drink plenty of water before, during and after Zumba®.
How much is it?
£8 per class.
Do I need to book?
No. You can just turn up and pay on the door (cash and card payments accepted).
How long are the classes?
One hour
What should I bring to class?
Bring bottled water (although I always provide free water where possible) and a towel if needed - burning 300-600 calories can be pretty sweaty. The most important thing is a sense of humour!
What should I wear to class?
Wear loose comfortable clothing that gives you freedom of movement - T-shirts / Vest Tops with leggings / tracksuit bottoms. Ladies wear a supportive bra during Zumba (preferably a sports bra). Shoes should be comfortable with plenty of cushion and lateral support. You may find that running shoes or cross trainers have too much tread to allow for side-to-side movement. No barefoot or socks please.
