Tashia Zeigler

An attorney by day, I gained 40 pounds within the first few years of practice and found it difficult to maintain a healthy weight.  I knew I needed to do something to take better care of myself, but I couldn't sustain any interest with the regular options like a treadmill or walking around my neighborhood.

I'd been seeing commercials for Zumba® Fitness, so when a friend asked me to take some classes with her, I decided to give it a shot.  Dancing seemed like the perfect option, because I  am trained in ballet, tap, jazz, hip-hop and lyrical forms of dance  and have been dancing since I was 3 years old.  From the first class in February 2010, I knew that Zumba® Fitness classes were for me.  

I decided to teach Zumba® Fitness classes, because I love the workout and want to help other people who have the same weight struggles.  I received my license in late 2011 and have been teaching packed classes while maintaining a full-time job as an attorney ever since.
