Joy of Movement with Arvin

Sometimes the most meaningful gifts are the ones given from the heart. ❤️
Eleni, one of my amazing Zumba students surprised me with this incredible hat today, and I absolutely love it! 🙏

Of course, I had to give it the ultimate instructor test… a mid-air Zumba jump! 😄🧢 I’d say it passed with flying colours!

Thank you for making my day and for bringing such great energy to every class. It’s people like you who make teaching so rewarding. 💙
See you all on the dance floor! 💃🕺

🏖️ 24 August – 6 September

I’ll also be away:
📍 Friday 17 July (Tottenham Green Leisure Centre – evening classes)

Class updates:
• Park Road Leisure Centre– All of my classes during these holiday periods will be cancelled.
• Tottenham Green Leisure Centre– All of my classes during these holiday periods will be cancelled.

See you! 💙

🚨 Important announcement (before rumours start!) 🚨

First question:
Should fitness instructors be allowed to take their birthday off?

I’ve decided the answer is yes. Scientific research (conducted by me) suggests cake and rest are essential for performance. 😄

So just a quick heads-up that classes are running as normal this month, except for the following dates:

🎂 18 March – I’ll be taking the day off for my birthday. No burpees, no planks… just cake.

🐣 Week commencing 30 March until Easter Monday – I’ll be away for a short Easter break.

Other than those dates, everything continues as normal, so I’ll still be seeing many of you in class throughout the month.

👀 But before I disappear for Easter…
there might be a little surprise session. Think of it as a bonus class… possibly featuring a few extra sexy moves instead of the usual planks. 😆

👇 Quick question:
If there’s no class, do you still exercise… or do you promise yourself you will and then end up eating snacks instead?

See you all in class soon!

Tottenham Green peeps 💃🕺

Okay… deep breath… 😅
Apologies for the sudden plot twists in your Friday & Saturday bookings — here’s the behind-the-scenes tea ☕️

As you know, from February our Saturday setup changed because of Studio 3 availability. This meant:
• Zumba Saturday disappeared 😢
• STRONG Nation & Anchor · Arise · Align moved to Studio 4

Now… Studio 4 is cosy (read: smaller 😆) and the air con is… let’s call it character-building. After last Saturday, it was clear that STRONG Nation + heatwave vibes = not our best life.
And the verdict was loud and clear: we miss Zumba Saturdays!

So this week I went into full detective mode 🕵️‍♂️ and found a way to bring Zumba back while keeping everything else flowing.
The centre approved it late Wednesday night, and I said: “Let’s do it this week!” — hence the last-minute switcheroo.

✨ The New Game Plan ✨

Friday
🔥 5:15–6:15pm | Studio 3
Floor Barre is tag-teaming out → STRONG Nation
(Because this class deserves proper air con, not survival training.)

Saturday
💃 10:45–11:30am | Studio 1 — ZUMBA IS BACK! 🎉
🧘‍♂️ 11:30am–1:00pm | Studio 4 — Anchor · Arise · Align (90 mins)
• Floor Barre blended in for extra length, strength, and graceful burn.

This setup suits the spaces better and keeps us moving, smiling, and only moderately melting 😜

Thank you for rolling with the changes — I’m always tweaking things to make your experience better (and more fun!).
And I promise to keep surprises to the good kind… unless you enjoy plotting revenge in the car park 🤣😘

Hello Tottenham Green peeps! Check the new timetable on the app for Friday and Saturday this week!

Hello everyone,

Happy Monday!

Thank you for a wonderful January and a great start to 2026! 🌟

I hope you’ve been enjoying the new Friday classes in Tottenham since last month — and to my Kentish Town crew, I hope you’re doing well without me on Fridays!

From this Saturday, 7 February, there will be some changes to our Saturday timetable at Tottenham Green due to the unavailability of Studio 3 over the weekends. Unfortunately, this means all Saturday classes previously held in Studio 3 will no longer be able to run there — including the original 1:15 pm Aqua Zumba pool slot.

However, with kind negotiation, the centre has been able to open a space for me in Studio 4. This is a slightly smaller studio than we’re used to, so I’ve been able to keep two out of our three regular classes there. The good news is that the centre has also found an alternative pool time so I can continue teaching Aqua Zumba.

From this Saturday, our new timetable will be:

• 11:00–12:00 pm— STRONG NATION — Studio 4
• 12:00–1:00 pm — Anchor • Arise • Align — Studio 4
• 2:00–2:45 pm— Aqua Zumba — Teaching Pool

Considering the room size/condition and the number of people who usually attend, I’ve decided it wouldn’t be practical to continue running Zumba in Studio 4.

Please feel free to check my full timetable on my website to see all the ways you can move, sweat, and party with me!

Thank you for your continued support — see you in class! 💛

Arvin
