Fitness and dance have been a passion of mine since I was a child.  I continued to dance as well as cheer throughout college while pursuing my BA in Elementary Education.  After securing a teaching position I continued my education and received my MA in Learning Disabilities.  While working in the education field I became group fitness certified through AFAA and began teaching classes in step, toning, and kickboxing.  After baby #3 in 2007 I left the field of education and began to make a career out of group fitness so that I would be home with my family more often.  In 2008 I attended a workshop to become a licensed Zumba Fitness instructor.  I instantly fell in love with the program as itt combined my two passions of dance and fitness into one class.  I began teaching many classes across the Lehigh Valley in PA and recruited many Zumba followers.  I started several Zumba programs for both adults and children and have had the pleasure of watching the numbers of smiling faces grow!  I currently teach classes in Zumba, Zumba Toning, and Zumbatomic for kids as well as master classes throughout the area.  My website is www.zumbawithtraci.com.  In addition I recently was certified in R.I.P.P.E.D and will begin to add those classes to the schedule.
