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.
The 25-year-old was overwhelmed by the offer and excitedly took her ‘dream role’. She is now hoping that others with learning difficulties can follow in her footsteps. The Atherton resident became a fully qualified instructor back in October 2021.
Hannah decided she wanted to pursue the career as she found Zumba helped with her mental struggles during the coronavirus pandemic.
