Press Release: Coventry’s Xcel Leisure Centre launches Aqua Zumba

 An innovative new form of exercise is set to make a splash in Coventry as people aim to get in shape for the New Year.Aqua Zumba, which combines high-intensity Latin dance-inspired fitness classes with the gentle support of water, has arrived at the Xcel Leisure Centre in Mitchell Avenue.Julie Flynn, Lifestyles Manager for Coventry Sports Foundation, said: “We have always prided ourselves on providing new and innovative ways for people to improve their fitness.“This is the only class of its type within a 100-mile radius and by offering it to our members we are hoping to deliver on our commitment to provide a wide range of exercise classes with something for everyone.“The sessions will allow participants to burn calories and lose weight fast in the pool and are ideal for those who might be a bit too shy to dance in front of other people.“Also, the support offered by the water allows people who may not be as steady on their feet as others to enjoy the exciting workout offered by the regular Zumba class.”Aqua Zumba has been introduced after the huge success of the regular Zumba fitness classes which were launched almost one year ago and have already seen over 4,000 people take part.The new 45-minute Aqua Zumba classes will be held at the Xcel Leisure Centre every Saturday at 12.15pm and the ability to swim is not essential.For more information about Lifestyles membership and the classes on offer across Coventry Sports Foundation’s three sites contact Julie Flynn on 02476 856956 or visit www.covsf.com.ENDS
