Julio Aleman

From a young age my love for dance has kept me busy. I danced for 5 years with the Atzlan Dance Company in Austin, TX in my early 20's. I also taught salsa lessons on and off throughout college.

In 2010 I was introduced to Zumba Fitness. I became licensed in October and quickly started teaching for a few local gyms: 24 Hour Fitness, Club Fed & Lloyd Athletic Club. My classes grew in popularity and my students were wanting more classes so I started renting space with a couple of business partners to create PulsePDX: a nightclub dance fitness experience. We taught one Zumba class a week in a nightclub environment (stage, sound system, club lights) for a couple of months. We soon saw demand growing and added classes in our rented space. After two years of being in business and putting on nightclub style classes, we finally opened our own facility in 2013. 

Currently I am teaching Zumba Fitness classes at PulsePDX and at 24 Hour Fitness. Our PulsePDX class schedule & membership continues to grow! Please visit us online at www.pulsepdx.net to see what we are about.
