I have been involved in fitness my entire life. Originally from Moscow, Russia, I have background in gymnastics, Latin and swing dancing. I have been a part-time dance and fitness instructor for over 13 years teaching group exercise classes such as yoga, pilates, Zumba, Zumba for seniors, Aqua Zumba as well as swing (East Coast, Lindy Hop, and West Coast swing) and Latin dances in the seacoast area. Students in my classes range from teenagers to 90+ year olds. I was featured as a principle dancer in 2016 Disney's feature movie "The Finest Hours". I thrilled to direct my own ladies salsa styling team Fluere Dance in Portsmouth, NH (www.flueredance.com)
I am 200-hrs certified yoga instructor, 200-hrs certified trauma-sensitive mindfulness meditation instructor and level 1 certified yoga nidra instructor. Prior to COVID, I have been teaching in many clubs and private corporations in the Seacoast area. During COVID, I have also founded a successful virtual fitness studio "N&A Fitness". Being very passionate about fitness and health, I also run yearly longevity retreat AgeWise Resolution (www.agewiseresolution.com)
I earned a Masters of Science degree in Biology/Microbiology from Missouri State University and currently work for the United States Department of Health and Human Services, in Washington, D.C.
