Silent Disco Walks for Women | Leicester News
Description
In Coalville, a silent disco walking club for women called Shake Up Coalville is turning heads—and hearts—with headphones, music, and movement. Started by Liz, who sought to boost her own mental health, the group has exploded in popularity after she used redundancy money to buy 20 noise-cancelling headsets. Now, dozens of women gather weekly for themed walks, dancing and singing along while cutting out the world’s noise. Local businesses are stepping in to sponsor more headsets, ensuring safety with smaller groups. The impact? Profound. Women battling anxiety, loneliness, or social hesitation—some as old as 76—are finding joy, connection, and an energy boost. It’s not just exercise; it’s community, laughter, and shared healing. And Liz? She’s learning that she’s helping others just as much as they’re helping her.
