Why just walk when you can stroll! Beginners encouraged at Worthing fitness class

The Rock n Roll dance scene is very popular and known for Jive dancing and a dance to slower 1950s music called The Stroll.

Colin says: " I have been dancing Jive in Brighton and Worthing since 1999. Back then it was predominantly jiving and there only a couple of stroll dances known.

“Over the years "Strolls" have been become very popular and many more strolls have been introduced in to the dance floor". Colin also says, " As the music of the 1950s is still very popular, I felt the music and dances can be adapted into a fitness class.”

Then Stroll 4 Fitness was born. Stroll 4 Fitness started with dancers crossed over from the dance scene, so they already knew a lot of the dance routines already.

hat was the problem when the beginners wanted to join but they felt it a bit intimidating, as everyone else knew what they were doing!

The introduction of the Beginners course is to dedicate three weeks aside from the regular class to teach the beginners the basic routines to give them more relaxed and build their confidence and bring up to speed to join in with the regulars.

The class has doubled the attendance and fully subscribed the Beginners Course!

With the success of the course there is demand for a daytime class. Colin is now organising for a daytime introductory Beginners Course from Thursday 5th October at East Worthing Community Centre. Contact for more information email [email protected].
