Athletic Rickmansworth residents will don 1980s style leg warmers and leotards for a charity Zumba-thon.
The class will take place at the William Penn Leisure Centre in Rickmansworth on Friday, November 16, with all proceeds going to Children in Need.
This is the second year the centre has hosted a charity zumba event and instructor Irene Moss says they are hoping to beat last year’s total of £382.
She said: "Last year we had a fantastic time with a glow sticks giant zumba class. This year we hope it will be bigger and better.
"What better way to keep fit than reliving the 80s and raising money for such a good cause?"
Dave Tenny, centre manager, said: "Irene and the staff have organised this fun charity event and it proved extremely popular last year.
"We hope members and non members will take part and raise hundreds of pounds for Children in Need."
The class will run from 7pm to 8pm and entry is £5 with all proceeds going to Children in Need.
