I'm a stay at home Mom of 5 beautiful children. 4 1/2 years ago I decided that I needed to make a change and do a little more for me. I joined my local YMCA and that has changed my life forever. I've made some amazing friends, as have my children, and at the same time started to get into better shape. I love to dance and took dance for many years as a child, so the Aerobics classes were just right for me. After about 9 months I decided to get certified for Group Exercise through the YMCA. I started teaching High/Low, Step, and Body Sculpt right after. In the Spring we host an Aerobathon, to raise money for our Guardian Program. It's a 3 hr event, with 30 minute blocks of different types of classes. This is where I was introduced to and fell in love with Zumba. Immediately after I signed up for the next Zumba B1 workshop in my area, and followed it with Zumba B2, Zumba Toning, and ZumbAtomic over the next few months. I LOVE teaching Zumba! To me it's like going out dancing with my girlfriends. I teach 4 Zumba classes, 1 Zumba Toning class, and 1 Body Sculpt class a week thru the YMCA. I also teach 2 private Zumba classes a week. Like most people, I plan to workout even if I'm on vacation, but like most people that doesn't always happen. What a better way to work out on vacation then to teach a class and provide an hour of fun for others!
