Transforming health through dance
Hi there, I'm Herbie.
I'm the founding director of Dance Mojo. At Dance Mojo, we are committed to helping you achieve optimal weight and wellbeing through dance. Our team of experienced professionals include expertise in bike riding and holistic health support if any of our clients need it.
We believe that true health is about more than just physical fitness - it's about finding balance in all areas of your life.
Primarily we support our clients to lose weight with regular dance exercises with motivation and encouragement by having regular weight challenge competitions and incentivised with prizes and certificates of acheivement.
Whether you're looking to lose weight, or simply improve your overall health, we're here to help. We treat everyone with respect, sensitivity and equality. We're more than just a dance class, we are part of an active and vibrant community.
Directors
My Skillset
I possess a strong desire, motivation and passion to improve the health and well being of the Community through dance.
My Background
I'm a dance instructor with eight years experience of promoting dance events and classes.
I also have one years expertise as Vice President of a London charity, responsible for fund raising and governance.
I bring this experience and expertise to
managing Dance Mojo.
My Goals
Barking and Dagenham is one of the poorest Boroughs in London, and in 2017 was reported to have the highest incidence of obesity and type 2 diabetes in England.
Since then I have introduced free dance classes to help support the community to fight these diseases and to date I have three classes and my aim is to use Dance Mojo to spread the number of classes across the borough of Barking and Dagenham and to work closely with other groups and partners to spread free dance classes in other bouroughs across the country to reduce the blight of obesity and it's contra-indicators.
My main goal, is to provide functional fitness classes (Zumba) and other dance genres designed for mass participation at multiple venues.
Including alignment to the Weight Management Programme
goals, with local authorities.
The dance classes, provided by Dance Mojo will generate motivation, fun, enthusiasm and support for all our candidates to achieve healthy weight goals
