Hi, I'm Mayumi. I have worked at several sports clubs as a free-lance fitness instructor, teaching Aerobics, Step, Pilates, Kids Hip Hop and ZUMBA for over 11 years in Japan.
I'm so happy that I can run ZUMBA Step lessons and dance lessons again now that I'm here in Australia and have oppotunities to meet various people in Australia as well.
I really love physical group exercises, as it makes people happy regardless of nationality and language. Come and join!!

13 people joined the commemorable first lesson. This lesson is focused on exercises and stretching muscles around pelvis, but now can change at participants’ requests.
The next lesson will be on Saturday 15 July 2017, 10:00-10:45 am.

The lesson is designed for mothers who have little babies and run for using a baby carrier.
The first lesson was held on the 15th of May. Surprisingly all the babies fell asleep during the lesson. Thanks, all mums & bubs!
As a long time has passed since I gave birth and I wanted to understand young mothers’ situation and feeling even for just a bit, I put a 5 kg dumbbell in my carrier with a stuffed animal.
Actually a few babies are over 8 kg, so I will try a 7 kg dumbbell the next time.
The choreography is not hard compared with ZUMBA lessons I usually run and doesn’t include high impact movements, but I sweated more than I thought I would.
I could sleep well that night.
Mummy & Bubby Dance gave me a good deep sleep, not only babies♡♡♡
We are going to start a new lesson program for mothers who have little babies.
I am Mayumi, a 16 years experienced fitness instructor teaching aerobics, step, Hip Hop, muscle training classes and ZUMBA.
Through my group exercise lessons, I met lots of mothers who gave up joining the lessons because of their babies. I felt sorry for them every time I saw them.
I understand young mothers’ impatience. They may think that they have to go on a diet.
I remember the time when I could get back into my job after my childbirth. My son was 2 months old then.
I really appreciate my mother who took care of my son.
I think it is a bit hard for mothers whose mothers don’t live close but have babies to exercise outside.

Her lesson made lengths of right and left leg identical.
What is Pilates?
Pilates is a rewarding and invigorating exercise program. It not only accomplishes wonders for a wide range of people, but it can also be practiced anytime and anywhere.
The method is a balanced, safe, and effective approach to fitness conditioning.
You’ll experience improvement in physical stability, strength, and flexibility.

I came to know Yuki through Facebook. It’s a small world. One of my assistant members used to join Yuki’s lessons in Melbourne when she had lived in Melbourne and moved to the Gold Coast.
Through the assistant member, Yuki and I connected last year, but we met yesterday for the first time directly.
I’ve never seen a ZUMBA® instructor like Yuki who is eager in pursuing ZUMBA® and has desire to improve herself before, which made me go back to basics.
Thanks for sharing fun time even though there was a sudden room changing, everyone!!
Yuki joined Natsuko’s Freestyle Dance Lesson too.
After the lessons, we had a petite lunch party with beer and spent meaningful time♪
Yuki, a ZUMBA® instructor from Melbourne is going to join our ZUMBA® lesson as one of 3 instructors on Saturday 15 October 2016, which is a special lesson day.
And・・・
We are also going to hold 2 ZUMBA® lessons for Halloween.
