Valerie Wood-Houpis

I am married and have four sons. I have a Batchelor's degree from the University of Californis at San Diego in Sociology. I love fitness and turned my hobby into a profession about 10 years ago when I first started teaching aerobics. I was quickly promoted by Bally Total Fitness to the position of group exercise manager. I held this position until my husband got a big promotion and we relocated back to California. We currently live in a small town in Northern California, where I have resumed teaching and gone on to getting certifed to teach Zumba, which I love! My next ambition is to open my own women's fitness/dance studio.
