The Martlets Hospice is hosting the South Coast’s only UV Zumba Dance Party on Friday, March 6, at The Old Market, Hove.
ZUMBA GLOW is a three-hour glow-in-the-dark dance marathon led by professional Zumba instructors and will be a high-energy, challenging but fun, sponsored event to raise money for patient care at the Martlets Hospice.
Clem Hunnisett, Martlets Community Events Fundraiser, said: “Everyone is welcome to take part in our high-energy event; you don’t need to have any previous dance or Zumba experience – the only thing you need to do is keep moving!”
The fluorescent lighting will give the event a club-like feel and participants are encouraged to wear UV clothing and accessories. Percussionists will bring live energy to the night and add to the party atmosphere.
The dance challenge will start at 7.30 p.m. and end at 11 p.m. and participants will be encouraged to take regular breaks.
Sherryn Watkin, Licenced Zumba Fitness Instructor, said: “I’m so excited to be hosting another Zumba Glow event for the Martlets after the success of our first one, which raised £27,000! We hope this one will be bigger, better and raise even more money for an amazing charity that works so hard to provide care to local patients and families.”
Advance registration is just £15. The Martlets is asking everyone taking part to raise as much money as possible to fund the Hospice’s local services.
The Martlets Hospice cares for people affected by terminal illness living in and around Brighton and Hove. Services are provided free of charge but, as less than a third of its funding comes from the NHS, it relies on the support of everybody in the community to help with fundraising.
