Fiona

Zumba Instructor – Events Team

Fiona graduated as an Occupational Therapist in 1991 and worked within the NHS until 2019, first in clinical practice and later in management.

She struggled with her weight from childhood into adulthood. Although she fully understood — and professionally promoted — the benefits of physical activity, incorporating it into her own life remained a challenge.

That changed in Spring 2023 when a friend invited her to join a Zumba class run by Stephanie. Fiona began attending weekly — and something clicked.

Despite discovering exercise later in life, that was the true beginning of Fiona’s fitness journey!

She now trains an incredible four times a week at Zumba, and also attends regular classes in Aerial Hoop, Aerial Sling, Hula Hoop, Flex and Conditioning, and Step Fitness. She has even taken part in Skydance NI’s Bungee Fitness sessions.

Motivated by the dramatic improvement in her overall fitness — and fuelled by her lifelong love of music — Fiona went on to complete her Zumba Instructor training in October 2025, and is now a Licensed Zumba Instructor.
