Laura Mata

As a group fitness instructor and personal trainer, it is my great pleasure to help others to achieve their personal health and fitness goals – to introduce them to a new lifestyle they can enjoy and keep forever. As a mother of three, I certainly know the challenges of “bouncing back” and how one’s change in outer appearance can affect one’s sense of self worth. I am a native of Barcelona, Spain where I was part of the program Barcelona Actíva. I have been in Arizona since 2001. Before coming to the United States I lived in Israel where I practiced the art of Middle Easter dance, and currently am the troupe leader of Warda Bellydance. I also teach Zumba© with class sizes in the mid 40’s, and recently appeared on stage with Gina Grant and Tanya Beardsly in Phoenix, AZ. I also travel to teach pilates and vinayasa yoga at resorts in Central and South America, such as The Majestic Elegance in Punta Cana, Dominican Republic (March 2012)

I am fluent in English, Spanish and Catalan.
