ZUMBA ON THE BEACH! Regular open-air Zumba classes take place every week on the promenade in Playa Flamenca, and at Orihuela Costa Resort in La Zenia. The fitness sessions have become popular with participants drawn to the beautiful outdoor venues, providing idyllic locations to enjoy exercise.
The music, the movement, and the dancing make Zumba the perfect choice of exercise for all ages or levels of physical ability, and attendees are guaranteed the perfect workout thanks to fully licenced Zumba instructors who put people through their paces.
The Zumba sessions are open to all. Eager residents and energetic holidaymakers are invited to join in the fun and get some much-needed exercise beside the spectacular Mediterranean Sea.
Classes at Playa Flamenca are organised by local fitness instructor Gwen Allan, and take place year-round weather permitting. The early morning start time ensures that it's never too hot for Zumba, even in the height of summer.
There is no requirement to book or register in advance, and both venues offers plenty of room for participants to comfortably space themselves apart.
Zumba sessions, fun on the beach every week
Zumba classes take place on the promenade in Playa Flamenca every Monday, Wednesday and Friday mornings from 09:00. Sessions cost just €3.00 per person, and you'll find refreshments available at Surfers Bar and Grill adjacent to the promenade – the perfect place to stop for a coffee or a well-deserved sweet treat afterwards.
During the cooler winter months, classes move to a slightly later start time of 09:30 to make the most of the morning sunshine.
The Zumba classes in La Zenia take place at Orihuela Costa Resort on the shaded terrace, every Tuesday and Thursday morning from 10:00. Hosted and instructed by Abi Palin, the sessions cost €4.00 per person.
