Zumba Fitness with Jacqueline Mair
Starts Thursday 3rd June, 18:30-19:30
Cost €12 waged and €6 unwaged

Zumba Fitness is the country's fastest-growing fitness trend, it's success is partly down to it's enjoyability, it's very hard not to smile right the way through this class, the soundtrack (a heady mix of Latin, African and pop beats put together in-house by Zumba Fitness' own music producer) is infectious. You get a great workout be prepared for having pink cheeks!

A Zumba class, says its creators, provides an effective form of interval training, alternating as it does between rapid cardio-heavy routines, and gentler toning styles. Participants can burn between 600 and 1,000 calories an hour, depending on how vigorously they follow the routine.
