I found Josie’s Zumba 12 years ago. She honestly changed my life and I’ve watched her transform many others lives over the past decade. Previously, I’d never found any type of exercise that I could stick to but now I’m completely addicted. I used to suffer from depression and an enormous lack of self worth. I was a disillusioned married Mother of two in an unsatisfying corporate career without feeling any purpose in life.

Josie’s joyful humour, kindness, positive body image and enthusiasm has seen me reclaim my own life. Her personality is truly infectious. My husband and kids have a running joke in  comically pushing me out the door to attend her classes as my children comment about my renewed happiness in everyday life and even my love life with my husband has blossomed 😉 Six of my work colleagues now attend her classes after witnessing my positive change in attitude towards my highly stressful work commitments.

Josie’s classes aren’t just about fitness, dancing and weight loss. She brings together friendship, community, fun and laughter in an inclusive, non judgemental space. I’ve seen the most shy class members who thought they couldn’t dance now in the front row living their best life! She is the best medicine for mental health and confidence building.

Thank you Josie for being so naturally warm & authentic. You bring so much love, happiness, fun and great banging tunes into my and so many other hundreds, let’s be honest…thousands of lives! You prove that life really can be one big continuous fabulous dance party.

Please keep teaching Zumba until you are 90!
