Zumba classes in Poulton-le-Fylde & Fleetwood attract top TV stars!
Fancy dancing the night away with the stars? Well Zumba classes in Poulton-le-Fylde and Fleetwood could offer you just that.
Blackpool born Dan Whiston is a well known figure across the Fylde Coast.
A professional ice skater - who started at Blackpool Pleasure Beach’s Ice Arena- he became a TV star when he featured in ITV’s Dancing On Ice between 2006-2014, and again in 2018.
Currently, Dan runs various businesses on the Fylde Coast, with business partner and fellow ice skater Karen Barber, including Thingamajiz in Poulton, Blackpool Thingamajigz Tots and a number of Subway restaurants.
The 48-year-old also holds a Zumba Class at The Crown Ballroom in Fleetwood every Tuesday and Poulton-le-Fylde Community Hall every Thursday and this week, he revealed that he had not one but two famous guests with him for Tuesday’s class.
The first, Blackpool born actress Hayley Tamaddon, is a good friend of Dan- having first met aged 12, they got even closer when were paired together on Dancing On Ice back in 2010.
Former Coronation Street star Hayley is a frequent attendee of mate Dan’s classes but joining her this week was also fellow soap star Jane Danson.
Jane, 46, is well known as the iconic Coronation Street character Leanne Batterby, a role she has played since 1997 (albiet with a four year break in the early 2000s.)
Taking to Instagram, the Bury local shared a picture of herself with Dan and Hayley at the Fleetwood Zumba class.
In the caption, she told her 148k followers: “Had such fun tonight with @thedanwhiston at his amazing Zumba class.

Dan shared the same picture alongside the caption: “Zumba was even more special tonight that @hayleysoraya and @realjanedanson both made it 😍 what an amazing class everyone 🙏”
In the comments under Janes post, Hayley wrote: “SO SO nice to see you and catch up.. we need a few more hours together! I’ll see you soon. Thanks for your hugs and mum chat.❤️❤️
