I have been with Kate since day one and look forward to Zumba every week. I always left work in time to make the Monday and Thursday class.
Patricia
Had a great Zumba Gold class today. Great music and just the right intensity for those starting out Zumba. I loved it. Thanks Kate.
Denise
With two left feet I wasn't sure if Zumba would be for me but Kate provided a warm welcome to the class with helpful advice and tips to progress. My friend and I enjoyed the class and feel that this is a fun way to improve our fitness and wellbeing. Thanks Kate
Margaret
The Zumba Gold class is a good form of exercise at low impact. Routines are fairly easy to follow and doesn't matter if you don't pick them up straight away as long as you keep moving and enjoy. Completely stress free.
Wendy
The Zumba Gold Class this morning was great, thoroughly enjoyed the music and routines. Would recommend this class for those who like low impact Zumba. Thank You Kate.
Gail
I Love Kate's Zumba Gold. I always
feel as if I've had a really good
workout. Kate is warm and welcoming and very professional. When we have new members to class she always explains what we will be doing in the session and advises us all to go at our own pace. I have noticed that she keeps a sneaky eye on us during class, I imagine watching out for potential problems. I can certainly recommend Kate Zumba, she obviously loves what she does and is a great encourager and wants us all to keep fit and healthy in a fun way.
Alice
Since starting the classes I feel much healthier and have more energy. Thank you Kate.
Ann
Zumba Gold Seated class is excellent and I look forward to coming each week.
Brenda
Such a great time at Zumba Gold Seated.
With fab music and coordination. Thank you.
Marie
I look forward to going to seated Zumba Gold classes on Monday's it give you enough exercise as you need. Kate does not push you into anything you can't do. The exercises are varied and the work out is just enough for your needs.
Eileen
Seated Zumba on a Monday is an absolute godsend. I have always gone to Zumba Gold but was waiting for a knee replacement so was unable to continue. I joined the seated class so I could still have exercise and a social group. I continued after my operation which was great as I could still exercise between physio appointments. I still got the exercise and social interaction. Really great for any ages and levels. Great fun and very beneficial.

Last year, having been diagnosed with severe arthritis of my left hip, I joined Zumba Gold Seated as I still wanted some exercise. The music is uplifitng and I was surprised at how much concentration was needed to keep up with the routines. Not a bad thing when you're getting older! I would recommend joining if you are looking to keep fit but have mobility issues.
Jenny
I have been attending Kate's seated Zumba classes for a couple of months now. The ladies who go are very wam and friendly and Kate is wonderful. The classes are great fun, the music upbeat and are tailored for everyone to have fun and friendship, and are excellent value for money!! Come along and give it a whirl. Do what you are able but most of all .... have fun and make friends.
Diana
I have been with Kate doing two gold classes a week for a few years. I would recommend anyone to come along and try any of her great classes. Kate is a great teacher and it's always fun and good exercise. I have made some lovely new friends too and we all go out together from time to time so come and join us.
Valerie
Zumba Gold classes every Monday. Kate is such a super instructor, lots of un and friends to be made.
Delia
The classes, the Venues, the Instructor and the people who attend these are all FANTABULOUS!!! Come along and give it a whirl!! My favourite is the Zumba SEATED classes .... I can put more into the moves when sat down! Since October 2023 I have gone from a size 20/18 to a size 16!!! No dieting, just my two Zumba classes at Slyne and now another class is available at Torrisholme!! FANTASTIC. If you come along you will be sure of a warm welcome, fun and friendship. Its not only for the ladies, so don't be shy .... and don't knock it until you have tried it.
Diana
I enjoy Kate's Zumba Gold class on a Monday. She is a great teacher and I feel energised after I have attended the class.
Caroline
I attend Kate's Zumba Gold seated classes to give me fun, cardio and leg exercises to help me improve my leg movements and joints. Great mixture of fast and slow beat tracks to boost my energy levels, keep me smiling and there is a lot of lovely people to meet and talk with. Great way to socialise and you don't have to be perfect just taking part makes all the difference to your health and wellbeing. Go on give it a try you'll love it.
Gilly
Kate is a fantastic Zumba instructor and motivator. I love the classes (Zumba and Circl Mobility on Thursday at Slyne Church hall). Great fun, great people, feeling great every time I go - rarely miss a class! Highly recommended for fitness and fun.
Monika
Zumba classes with Kate are well structured but most importantly great fun! Kate is so enthusiastic and encouraging with great routines and music to exercise to. For me her Seated Zumba classes are ideal as I still exercise and enjoy the movement and its great to be part of a cheerful group. Can recommend Kate's classes - give it a try!
Nan
Fun classes, great for losing weight, getting fit and making new friends. Kate is an excellent instructor and her passion for Zumba shines through. Great for beginners, young or not so young, all abilities catered for.
Di
Excellent classes and very professionally conducted by Kate who always displays enthusiasm and motivation. The classes are always fun and attract a very friendly crowd of people. Different classes to suit all abilities.
Denise
Kate Zumba Gold Seated is great fun, she is a great teacher and lovely person, give it a try at Slyne Church Hall, Monday at 11.45 am and Friday at 2.30 pm or Wednesday 11.45 am at the Church of Ascension at Torrisholme. You won't be disappointed.
Brenda
I've been going to Zumba classes with Kate for around 10 months. I've lost 20 llbs up to now and feel stronger, fitter and I have more energy. I've made friends too, everyone is welcoming and friendly and Kate is an amazing instructor. She even arranges trips to musicals, Christmas parties etc for us all. I just LOVE her Zumba classes.
Di
So glad I found Kate and her Thursday Zumba class. Whether you're looking for a gentle class or high energy class, Kate teaches for all abilities and the ladies are all lovely and welcoming. The Circl class after Zumba is a great way to stretch out the body and you can really feel yourself unwind any tension the body is holding and it helps to improve balance which is so important as we get older. It's great fun, a great workout and never ever a chore.
Silvia
Circl Mobility is a great way to cool down, to make use of the energy used in class and to stretch out the muscles fully. Also good for de-stressing.
Lindsey
Really enjoy my Zumba Gold and Zumba Toning Classes with Kate. She is very welcoming and classes are friendly. Great instructor who explains the routines well and prepares for each class to take into account things like hot weather! I don't always get all the routines right (coordination!) but it's about keeping moving and having fun to great music. If you haven't tried it come along.
Catherine
Love seated Zumba classes, great routines and music, all lessons have different routines to keep us on our toes. Great atmosphere in classes. Kate always goes that extra mile for us with social events too. Fantastic instructor, highly recommended.
Joanne
Lots of benefits with Circl Mobility from stretch, cooldown and I have noticed improvements to my posture. It also helps you relax after the enjoyment of Zumba.
Angela
I've loved and participated in Zumba for a long time. Due to a chronic back issue I had to stop. Then along came Kate. I didn't even know Zumba Gold Seated existed! I'm a newbie to Kate's group and have really enjoyed the sessions. Great fun.
Jacky
Kate is an excellent instructor. She gives and demonstrates clear instructions. Her Zumba Gold class is fun and beneficial to mind and body. She provides a wide range of classes to suit all levels. The classes are always friendly and welcoming.
Cathy
I have lost 2 stone and I suffer from advanced Osteoarthritis of both hips. I walk with 2 arm support crutches. My mobility has worsened but Zumba Gold Seated classes have motivated me to keep going to lose more weight so I can have my hips replaced. The support I get from all the ladies in the class is invaluable. We all look out for each other.
Gilly
Kate is a lovely friendly lady. Always puts her Zumba groups first. Her classes are fun and suitable for everyone's needs.
Carol
I've been attending Kate's Zumba classes from the very beginning. I now do Zumba Gold and Zumba Toning. Wouldn't still be going, if it wasn't for the enjoyment of the lovely ladies who attend and the enthusiastic Kate.
Christine
Love each and every Zumba Gold Seated class, thank you Kate for the encouragement and expertise.
Norma
Only recently joined the Zumba Seated. Loving the classes. All routines are fun to do to the catchy music. Atmosphere is brilliant and such a friendly group. Kate is so enthusiastic and encouraging with a wide variety of different routines. Thanks Kate for being a brilliant instructor and ensuring we all have a wonderful time.
Sally
I didn't know anyone when I moved here 4 years ago - Kate's Zumba helped me meet lovely new people.
It's also the highlight of my week. The time whizzes by and so much thought goes into the song choices. A welcome distraction from working from home and always good fun.
Lisa
I'm loving your Zumba class Kate. It's a great mix of moves and music as well as a great work out! I'm a newcomer to the class and have been made welcome right from day one. It's good fun with no pressure and lots of encouragement. Kate cares a lot about her classes and puts a hugh amount of work into making the class a success for everyone.
Judi
Love going to Zumba Gold Seated Class . Kate is great and all the class are very friendly.
Yvonne
Can certainly vouch for the seated Zumba! Great workout and great fun with great music!
Julie
Seated Zumba Gold has been great for me. Because of spine problems I couldn't exercise but really enjoy the exercises, feel fitter and helps with depression.
Sandy
Thanks Kate for all that you do and the wonderful Zumba gold seated classes that I attend. It has changed my life for the better.
Irene
Zumba Gold on a Monday is a great way to start your week. Kate is so enthusiastic choosing fantastic music and teaching us ever changing routines ..... her energy is infectious! The session is fun and before you know it you've exercised and feel brilliant. It's a friendly crowd so always someone to laugh with if you have two left feet! If you want to get fit and feel great I highly recommend you come along.
Isobel
I started going to the Zumba Gold Seated classes when recommended by a friend as I had problems with my knee. I have absolutely loved the classes. They are an excellent way to exercise, great fun, good music and lovely company. As a plus, there are monthly coffee mornings, theatre trips and Christmas parties arranged by Kate. I recommend anyone to give it a try, once you have tried it you will keep attending the classes.
Brenda
I go to Zumba Gold, Zumba Toning and Circl Mobility classes with Kate. I am so pleased I started these classes as they are a lot of fun. Everyone is so friendly and Kate is lovely and caring and supportive. Kate organises social events for us too and I have met a lot of new people through the classes as well as getting fitter. I enjoy all the classes and do 2 a week. Zumba Gold is dance based with great music. Zumba Toning is similar but using light weights or toning sticks. Circl Mobility is about stretching and flexibility, similar to Pilates and is a great way to stretch out after the Zumba Gold class. I can thoroughly recommend Kate's classes. They are excellent.
Sarah
Zumba Gold seated class is fabulous. Kate makes it so enjoyable for everyone. She is so encouraging and really puts her heart and soul into each and every class. The music and routines are brilliant. Give it a try, you will not be disappointed.
Jill
Kate is a fantastic Zumba and Circl Mobility Teacher. She is so welcoming and friendly. Her routines are fun and varied and she always tell us, it doesn't matter if you get in a muddle with the moves, just dance and have fun!. It's a real feel good class.
Sarah
I love attending Zumba Gold Seated classes, I go twice a week occasionally three times a week. Everybody works at different levels and you don't have to remember all the moves as Kate is an excellent teacher. After developing intermittent right sided sciatica during exercise after having my last baby I was having difficulty finding exercises that I could undertake. Since attending Kate's classes for almost 18 months, I haven't had any pain. You really need to wear gym type wear, as you will sweat, if you want a good workout. Kate also organises theatre trips, meals and coffee mornings for us to attend.
Margaret
Kate provides such welcoming and inclusive Zumba Gold Seated sessions. I didn't know what to expect, and was a bit nervous, especially walking into a room full of people, many of whom knew each other. Kate made sure I was made to feel at home in her Zumba family straight away. Her expectations of herself are high and of participants reassuringly anything goes. Whatever your age, stage, ability, or disability. Kate is aware and reassuring. She takes the medical paperwork really seriously and checks and advises. It's not just a form filling exercise. Once you are in a group, even after one session, you are part of Kate's Zumba family and it's wonderful that she goes over and above to provide social events so regularly. I can't praise or thank her enough. There needs to be more Kate's in Zumba!!
Helen
I absolutely love Zumba gold classes. Kate is full of energy and makes the whole session fun! The music is upbeat, the moves are easy to follow and the atmosphere is super positive. It feels more like a dance party than a workout! I leave feeling energised, happy and sweaty in the best way. Whether your a beginner or have dance experience, this class is a great way to stay active and have a blast. Highly recommend it.
Nataly
I love coming to Zumba Toning, Zumba Gold and Circl Mobility and I am definitely seeing and feeling the benefits to my health and wellbeing. Love the music and the workouts and all the encouragement you give to us all. Its fab.
Karen
Zumba classes have helped me to achieve greater cardio fitness and also support my goals to keep a healthy mind and strong body as I get older. I always thought that I had two left feet but Kate's clear demonstrations of moves soon help you to overcome any choreography challenges. To be honest the Zumba group is such a lovely crowd that it really doesn't matter if you put a foot wrong. It's fun too .... the music choices really suit the routines and Kate puts great effort into coordination of social events, such as coffee mornings, charity fund raisers, theatre trips and Christmas dinners. Give it a go .... great for your body ... great for your social life.
Margaret
Great class on a Monday with Zumba Gold Seated. Kate is a great instructor and makes our exercises very interesting. Always feel so good after taking part. Everyone is very friendly and always look forward to Mondays.
