Zumba and line dancing instructor Linda Whitbourn has kept students active since March 2017.
Linda’s teaching journey began from humble beginnings in 2017, when she began holding classes at her garage. Five years later, Linda now enjoys a busy schedule teaching 13 classes each week, including Aqua Zumba, Zumba Gold and Line Dancing.
Linda’s class rules are to keep moving, keep smiling and have fun! Linda says she enjoys every moment of each class, and her enthusiasm is contagious. Her classes’ success is partly due to her dedicated students who attend her classes every week.
Linda says she not only teaches dancing but also brings the best out of her students by believing in them. Their recent performance at the Ekka was a great success. Linda values the effort, hard work and commitment shown by every member of her 15-strong team at every performance, who are also great role models for an active community.
Her vision and goal are to help those who may be trapped in their own homes to be active and healthy and to make friends along the way. Assisting students to get out of isolation and loneliness by joining her happy classes is important to Linda, “because life is beautiful and it is worth living!”.
