Natasha Johnson Fitness Reviews 

Written by the company

I’m Natasha Johnson, and in the year 2000, I decided to change my life for the better and retrain as a fitness instructor. After doing the rounds in various fitness fields, in January 2011, I opened Zumba Thornbury with two classes a week – and it was just what Thornbury had been waiting for! An exciting, fun way to burn calories, all wrapped up in the joy and movement of dance. Within a few months I had put on additional classes and introduced a booking system, as it was proving so popular. I like to adapt to suit demand, so class schedules have evolved over the years to incorporate other exercise fields, such as Zumba® Toning, Zumba® Gold, Yoga-Lattes, Body Conditioning, Strong & Stable and more. During the pandemic I invested in technology so I could continue teaching via Zoom, and to my surprise this is still a popular option today, as it means my clients can join classes from wherever they are in the world! In July 2025, I won the Heart & Soul Award for the Best Regional Instructor for the South West of England, which means so much to me knowing that people value the hard work I put into all I do. I am passionate about hosting and participating in community and charity events. I also host other instructors from around the world, who hold masterclasses locally. For me, just as important as the exercise is the social aspect of classes and the friendships which come from that. I hold social events every year that all my clients are welcome to attend.See more
