What is Zumba?

Zumba combines high energy and motivating music with unique moves and combinations that allow the Zumba participants to dance away their worries. It is based on the principle that a workout should be "FUN AND EASY TO DO" in order for Zumba participants to stick to the Zumba fitness program to achieve long term health benefits. Zumba is great for the mind and body.

Zumba is a "FEEL HAPPY" workout that comes from Colombia. This fusion of Latin and International dance music is sure to create a dynamic workout. Zumba targets areas such as the gluteus, legs, arms, abdominals and most importantly - the heart.

In 2007 I spent a winter in southern Alabama taking Zumba classes and this is where I found my passion. I took master classes with Erick Santana before becoming the first Zumba instructor in northern Michigan in 2008. In 2009 I attended master classes in California, Florida and Ohio with Beto Perez (the creator of Zumba) getting my license to teach basic 2 along with my Aqua license through Maria Browning (the co-creater of Aqua program) and my ZumbAtomic license with Gina Grant (the co-creator of the Zumba for kids program). In 2010 I traveled to Wisconsin to train under Kelly Bullard to receive my Zumba Toning license.

I have since expanded my skills to Pole Fitness, chair and burlesque dancing, strength training and Real Ryder cycling. With the love of dance and fitness I created my own program called Alley Cats Fitness, which was introduced in 2014. As much as I am dedicated to your success, I understand the importance of keeping my personal skills up to date as well. Your success is my success and I value every person that walks through the door.
