Zumba has really changed me personally.  I began taking class to get back into shape after a very stressful time in my life.  I found myself 40+ pounds overweight and having no real plan to get moving and take it off.  After about 6 months of being a "front row" student, I decided to go get my, license to teach.  Zumba is a fun workout and you lose yourself in the music and dance.  Before you know it, you have burned 500-1000 calories in an hour workout!

I have since lost 35 pounds with Zumba and following the Weight Watchers plan.  I feel great!  I look a lot better and younger.  This change has happened in front of my students at Zumba, so they are really motivated by my success.  My style of teaching is very fitness oriented.  I like an all over body workout without so much complicated choreography because I think the really difficult moves can prohibit people from getting in a good workout. 

I love being a teacher, motivator and role model as a Zumba instructor.   I'm on a journey that will last my lifetime and I hope to be movin' and shakin' my booty well into my 90's.
