About Me
My inborn passion for dance began at an early age. My parents enrolled me in dance classes at the tender age of three. I couldn't get enough and continued to dance competitively as well as teach classes into college. I was a school teacher after college, and decided to devote myself to being a stay at home mom when my first child was born. As much as I ADORE my children and being home with them, I had lost myself in the hustle and bustle of motherhood and had lost my connection with dance and had stopped taking time for myself... there was a void. Down the line, I found a passion for fitness and started taking any fitness class I could get my hands on, the first one being a ZUMBA ® class. I was drawn to it instantly. I felt like I had escaped to this other world for an hour where nothing else mattered except having fun. It was during that time, that I found myself an amazing mentor who inspired me, and I became passionate about becoming a group exercise instructor.
I truly love fitness classes. They are all fun, all burn calories, but I find none as invigorating as ZUMBA. It was through ZUMBA® that my love of dance, fitness, and strong education background collided. It felt like the missing piece --- this is what I had been looking for!
ZUMBA® is amazing! It is easy, exciting and most importantly so much fun! It has been an outlet and an escape for me and I feel strongly about bringing that health and happiness to others. The bonus is that there is massive caloric expenditure. The Latin music is infectious, motivating, invigorating and the workouts fly by! It really is a PARTY!
Classes are packed with enthusiasm and fun - and you will sweat more than you thought was ever possible. The energy is infectious and you will leave with a spring in your step and a smile and song in your heart.
If you have never danced before, have no worries...within the hour you will be amazed at how quickly you pick up on the steps. Come ZUMBA® WITH ME once and you will be hooked. Your workouts will never be the same!
About the Music
Can't get enough of that Latin beat? I clearly remember leaving my very first Zumba® class with tunes so stuck in my head. I had no idea what I was singing but I wanted to hear more of it and wished I knew the titles of the songs. So folks, here's a list of some Zumba® faves available for download on ITUNES. Brush up your Spanish, bust out your sassy new moves for your spouse, or just add a little background flare to whatever you are doing!
