Alicia Gayle
Bio
Hi I am Alicia,
I recently moved to Cambridge but have been teaching for a few years. I love anything with a good beat and am not afraid of a sing-along while we’re working out! I strongly believe in fitness being part of a healthy lifestyle and love how group classes encourage people to feel connected and have fun. The ultimate goal is not even realizing how hard you’ve worked. “Strength grows in the moments when you think you can’t go on but you keep going anyway”
Jen Reynolds

Hi I’m Jen,
Just an ordinary lady, with an ordinary lifestyle, with the desire to help others get fitter and reach their goals… (Yes I do eat cake and like a glass of wine too!) I’m mostly as normal as they come (although don’t ask my friends!!!) …
I made my decision to become a Personal Trainer so that I could learn how to train myself and others better – working smarter.
My class is HIIT format, includes a mix of strength and cardio, to keep the heart pumping whilst still working on strength and stability.

I started my journey with hip hop 10 years ago, I was a member of various dance groups in Poland and she took part in many street dance competitions and dance camps. In 2013 I was a finalist of the biggest show in Poland, “Got to Dance’’. She still takes classes from the most famous dancers in London (at studios 68, BASE or Pineapple).
At the moment I teach hip hop at the Chequer Studio in Ely. My classes include basics of hip hop, grooving, freestyle, B.E.S.T (body, energy, space and time), rhythmicity and also choreography. I teach people how to be more confident with the dance moves. My class always includes fun, laugh and a very good time.

Marta Alves
Bio
I discovered my passion for both dancing and exercise when I started doing rhythmic gymnastics at the age of 9. I competed as a gymnast for several years, ultimately joining the Spanish National Team, where I was exposed to ballet, Spanish dancing and contemporary dance.
Later on, I tried hip hop, belly dancing and Zumba. In Zumba, I discovered the perfect blend between dancing and exercise. Every class feels like a party, it is suitable for everyone and a great way to exercise while having fun, bringing a ray of Latin sun to even the gloomiest of days!
Daisy Worzencraft
Bio
Hi I’m Daisy, I teach Vinyasa and Hatha yoga but with my own unique ‘style’ which is very much focused on the exploration and curiosity of the yoga poses – rather than trying to achieve perfection!
I’m all about having fun, trying things out with a playful attitude, while building strength as well as flexibility. I also teach a Hot Yoga Sequence class.
I trained in Spain, under Yoga Alliance, and I continue to educate myself on the biomechanics of the body through various training and CPD.
Look forward to seeing you!

Bonjour, I am a well-being coach and a former Body Transformation coach who absolutely enjoys sharing high energy levels and new tips to feel and look better for the rest of your day.

Floss Harry
Bio
Hey! My name is Floss and I am a yoga instructor and facilitator. I completed my first teacher training back in 2019 in India in Hatha and Traditional Tantra Yoga.
Since then, I have continued to study and immerse myself in different practices, completing training in Embodied Anatomy, based on the Franklin Method, and Sadie Nardini’s Vinyasa Core Rockstar Teacher Training.
I would describe my teaching style as fun, explorative, and sometimes challenging; a vinyasa styled class focussed on enquiring into the knowledge of self anatomically and philosophically!
Raquel Gomes
Bio
Hey there! 🙂 My name is Raquel Gomes, and I am a licenced Zumba and Aqua Zumba Instructor.
Since a young age, I have been passionate about dancing and loved to dance like nobody was watching. Zumba was my way into dance and fitness and since then I could not stop. I have taken this passion further and acquired knowledge and dance skills mainly in Brazilian funk and dancehall female but also in high heels, pop dance, street jazz and twerk, in one of the most famous Portuguese dance schools. You don’t need to know how to dance to be able to come and join me, so check out my Zumba class schedule and drop into a class. I can promise you it will be the happiest hour of your day, full of rhythms from all around the globe! Zumba not only feeds your body but all also your mind and soul. Just attend a Zumba class and feel good about moving to the music!
