Thank you for considering my portfolio for teaching fitness classes abroad. I maintain an active educational membership through the ACE, and as part of the Zumba Instructor Network (ZIN). I currently hold active CPR certification as well. My fitness philosophy is diverse and inclusive and I cultivate joy in the craft of movement and intense exercise in others. I am trained as a cultural anthropologist and hold a PhD. I am also a former distance runner, and current Cross-fit trainer. I have taught fitness classes at the Bay Club in Carmel Valley, CA, FIT gym in Del Mar, YMCA in Mission Valley, and at the fitness facility inside the National Science Foundation.
