I have been married for almost 8 years. I have 2 children, Maddie whom is 7 and Natalie who is almost 4. I am a full time teacher. I have taught 5th grade for 9 years. I have been an avid runner for 3 years, completing 2 half marathons. My first one being the Nashville country 1/2 marathon andy second being the Chicago 1/2 marathon. I have completed numerous 5 and 10k's. Back in January of 2012 the YMCA in our town began Zumba classes. I started taking them from day one and have been encouraged to get my license early on. Finally this year I decided to go to the training and become an instructor. I absolutely love dancing and the joy of hearing a song and making up a routine to go with it!!
