I have been teaching in the group fitness field since 2009.  My first love was Zumba® which in time turned into a love for teaching all formats!!! I have had the honor to teach not only regular Zumba Fitness classes but also Zumba Toning, Zumba Sentao, Zumba Kids and Zumba Kids jr. and more recently, Aqua Zumba.  I have also have had the opportunity to teach Indoor Cycling classes as well as Kids Fitness classes at my local YMCA.  In 2012 I was blessed with the opportunity to bring health and fitness awareness to a small community by offering classes at my very own studio such as Hot Hula, Hot fusion, Zumba, Zumba Toning, Zumba Sentao, Express Core, and Hip Hop fitness.  From 2014 until 2019 I had the pleasure of being selected as a Zumba Jammer leading choreography sessions as a continuing education for Zumba Instructors.  After giving birth to my youngest two children and experiencing an unmedicated, natural birth but lacking support from my healthcare providers, I decided to certify as a birth and postpartum doula, offering birth and postpartum support as well as pre/postnal fitness.

• *certifications include AFAA Primary Group Fitness, AFAA Perinatal Fitness, YMCA Group Fitness by ACE, Zumba, Zumba Toning, Aqua Zumba, Zumba Kids, Zumba Sentao, Strong by Zumba
