ABOUT ME
Jo Gibson
Dance Fitness & Gym Instructor
Hi, I'm Jo Gibson, I live near Brighton in the UK, a small city with a big heart.
I started doing Zumba 16 years ago as I was looking for a fun way to get fit. 2 lessons in and I was hooked!
Zumba is a Latin American music based dance/fitness programme that incorporates aerobic exercises with the dance styles of Salsa, Cumbia, Merengue, and Reggaeton, as well as international choreographies from all around the world.
I was 43 when I did my first class, so I especially want to encourage those of you over 40 to give it a go. People from the generations who did not grow up with the fitness industry as prolific as it is today, and may feel excluded from joining in. I offer 2 types of class, standard Zumba and Zumba Gold.
Although based in Southwick in West Sussex, I have classes in Henfield, Shoreham by Sea, Worthing, Burgess Hill and in Brighton.
As well as increasing fitness and helping with weight loss, Zumba gives you 'head space'. An hour of 'ME TIME'! If you're looking for a class that will lift your spirits, keep you fit and tone your body then this is for you! Feel the benefits in just a few classes.
I also each BollyX - the Bollywood Inspired workout!
I'm the first licensed instructor in Sussex bringing the BollyX fitness programme to you in live classes. Fantastic Indian Pop, Bhangra and Indian folk music with professionally choreographed dance fitness routines to give you a full body workout!
Currently BollyX is incorporated within the Zumba & Zumba Gold classes.
I take private bookings, as BollyX is ideal for hen nights and parties as a great fun way to get everyone on the dance floor.
Even if you're not in the United Kingdom, you can still enjoy my Zumba Gold classes by subscribing to the online video library, and joining the wonderful community that continues to grow. Your membership brings you into the wonderful WhatsApp group where you can meet other Zumba and Zumba Gold fans!
Watch on your laptop, tablet, or stream on your TV, also available via the app on Spaces.
Since qualifying as a gym instructor I am now providing Functional Fitness training classes, with the over 50's and for complete newbies to fitness in mind. Check out my Functional Fitness class called
