Zumba Summer Party 2025 at Rålisparken: Welcoming Summer with Rhythm and Community


ree

For me, there’s no better way to close the spring season than by welcoming the Swedish summer—and especially in Stockholm, where everything changes when the sun comes out. The city transforms. The energy shifts. And what better way to celebrate that than dancing together under the open sky?


That’s exactly what we did at the third edition of the Zumba Summer Party at Rålisparken—a now-beloved tradition that continues to grow and bring people together through music, movement, and joy.


🌿 Why Rålisparken?

Rålambshovsparken, affectionately known as Rålis, has become an iconic space for outdoor Zumba in the city—and for good reason:

  • It’s beautiful and spacious

  • It’s centrally located and easy to access

  • It offers so many possibilities for movement, play, and connection

This park isn’t just a location—it’s part of the magic.


💃 A Celebration of Instructors, Leaders, and Community

This year, I had the honor of sharing the basketball court at Rålis with 11 incredible Zumba instructors—each bringing years of experience, distinct musical styles, and unique energy.

Together, we welcomed over 50 participants who danced, smiled, and celebrated the power of community. Everyone contributed to the vibe, turning this gathering into something unforgettable.

But what made this third edition truly special was the presence of three key leaders in the Zumba network:


  • Our own Zumba Jammer Tanja Gottardo—elite choreographers who create and share official Zumba routines with other instructors around the world.

  • One Zumba Education Specialist (ZES): Ana Georgescu —a certified trainer who mentors and licenses new instructors, represents the Zumba brand globally, and helps shape the future of our community.

Having them on the team added depth, creativity, and an incredible level of professionalism. Their presence wasn’t just inspiring—it was empowering. Watching them lead, support, and dance alongside us reminded me how much talent and generosity lives within the Zumba world.

It was an absolute privilege to have them with us—and a beautiful opportunity for all of us to learn, grow, and celebrate together.


📸 Special Thanks

A heartfelt thank you to all my Zumba colleagues who made this event possible. Your energy and collaboration filled the day with joy.

🎉 More Than a Class—A Movement

This wasn’t just a class. It was a celebration of everything Zumba stands for: joy, diversity, empowerment, and unity through movement. Dancing together in the heart of Stockholm was a powerful reminder of the connection we create through rhythm.


🌞 Looking Ahead

The Zumba Summer Party has become one of the highlights of the year, and this third edition was the most vibrant yet. I already look forward to next year—more music, more sunshine, more community.
