Tine Gulbrandsen

I am a Norwegian citizen residing in Canada. I studied physical education in high school, with the main focus on snowboarding. I was lisenced to coach snowboarding, and in addition to coaching the girl team for my local ski club, I also instructed several courses which included all age-groups and skill levels. After coming to Canada, I have earned a Bachelor of Science in Kinesiology. During this time I got a Coaching certificate level 2 and I coached 5 year-olds in hockey. I also got my CSEP Personal trainer lisence; however, I have not re-registerred this lisence. Following my bachelors degree I started graduate school and has earned a Masters of Science in Neuroscience, and I am currently a PhD candidate in the same field. I discovered Zumba Fitness in spring 2012 and absolutley loved it! I got lisenced to teach in September 2012 and started teaching almost right away. I have my B1 and B2, as well as Zumba Sentao. I take my continued education very seriously, and I participate in ZIN jam sessions on a regular basis. I was also in Orlando this August taking part in the annual Zumba Instructor Convention. 

Other than Zumba, I love to stay active! Yoga, weight lifting, cross-country skiing, snowboarding, hiking in the Rocky Mountains, camping, running, bicycling and golfing are all activities I regularly participate in.
