Latin Dance and Fitness are the love of my life.
I grew up in Russia, where I got my Nursing degree and initial gym experience. I was also part of amateur folk dance company. In 1992, I moved to Boston, MASS with my family, where I was working part time and getting full time education. At the same time, staying active in fitness, I developed good step classes skills.
In 1998, after graduation, I moved to San Francisco Bay area, CA. I worked as a dental hygienist and enjoyed the area a lot. Later I became a member of Fred Astaire ballroom studio. One day a friend took me to a salsa club, and I fell in love with salsa dance. I developed great friendship with other salsa lovers, and became a very advanced dancer. At the same time, I was introduced to kickboxing classes taught by a very experienced and popular instructor. By being regular participant and in good physical shape, I could develop professional skills and choreography.
I moved back to Boston in 2001, where I continued my dental carer along with being active in fitness and dance. I missed my high skill kickboxing classes from California and, finally, decided to get my own licenses and started my own program, inspired by great choreography and advanced styling fitness.
For the past 3 years, I have been running my small studio by teaching complex group classes, that include cardio kickboxing and variety of fitness elements and techniques along with Zumba (dance based fitness inspired by latin music). I constantly improve with continue education classes and workshops which allow to diversify my classes. I am attending Jae Hun Kim Tae Kwon Do Institute black belt program, which improves my marshal art skills. I am always opened to new experiences in fitness settings.
I enjoy working with people, bringing them positive energy, improving their wellness, increasing their fitness level through professional, safe exercise. I posses great potential, that I will not get tiered to explore. I would be happy to have an opportunity to demonstrate my skills and knowledge further.
Thank you, Elena.
