I am 59 years old but still in good shape.  I am married and have three children, four step-children, and nine grandchildren.  I presently have a personal trainer, and I do weight training three to five days a week in addition to my Zumba classes.  I have participated in various fitness programs for most of my adult life, such as weightlifting, yoga, stationary cycling, tap, ballet, jazz, etc. Zumba was not available in my area so I began doing Zumba in my home after ordering the DVD's and fell in love with it.  I approached the owner of the gym I attend about providing Zumba classes, and we decided to become instructors together.  We completed Basic I in November 2010 and Basic II in January 2011.  We launched Zumba in our gym in January  2011.  During this year, I have taught approximately three classes per week. At present, I have also completed Aqua Zumba and Zumba Gold training.
