“We do hope that other people with disabilities can follow in her footsteps.”
The UK’s first ever Zumba instructor with down’s syndrome is excited to start her new role at Pure Gym in Tyldesley when it opens next month. Hannah Payton was looking for a new space to put on her classes when Pure Gym got in touch to ask her if she could be their Zumba instructor.
“During the pandemic she had to shield because of her condition,” Jutta Payton said. “She was not happy at all so when she discovered online Zumba it was a game changer. “Zumba helped her through lockdown and now she wants to help others discover it as well. She has even done classes for people with disabilities.
This active lifestyle is something Hannah is accustomed to, she has competed in the Special Olympics since she was 16. Having won ‘countless’ medals of all colours in swimming and badminton, she has since retired after a successful Olympic career.
