Hello everyone! I hope you are all doing well. 🙂

I want to thank you all for your support, for attending classes, sharing my classes and for dancing with me over the years.

My in-person class at Walter Baker Centre will finally be resuming in January, however, I sadly (temporarily, maybe permanently) will not be the instructor… My friend Sony Smith will be filling in until at least April.

Some health issues are causing me to no longer be able to do high intensity exercises, this includes Zumba… Due to Covids effect on the health care system, I am on a 6+ month wait list to get more information and learn if/when I can teach again.

If you are still interested in the in-person classes at Walter Baker Center, Sony Smith won’t dissapoint!!!

I can also recomend a very long list of amazing instructors teaching at various gyms and virtually too.

Thank you all again for your support over the years and though I can’t teach right now, I may still be a student alongside you all dancing to the amazing world rhythms that I love so much 🙂

Hey guys! 👋
A LOT has happened during this pandemic I can't even begin... From big family losses, to exciting new chapters all in the matter of months. It has honestly been the biggest roller coaster of my life.

Generally when life gets me down I turn to Zumba and my class. Having 22+ students to SHOW UP for every week helped me put my issues aside and throw a kick a** class! It was my weekly DRIVE & MOTIVATION for my health and to help others stay healthy and happy.

These last few months as we all know; gyms are closed & my classes - CANCELLED 🥺 for an undetermined amount of time.

At first it was ok; wow a break! But as the weeks passed, my motivation flew out the window and I essentially fell right off the "fitness bangwagon." For someone who has struggled with health & fitness (due to asthma) for years this is devastating. I gained EVERY pound back along with every insecurity.

This week, a little fire started burning up inside and I decided I need to make a change. We don't know how long the gyms will be closed & we don't know when my classes can resume so I decided to try a new journey in virtual fitness coaching.

I know that I am not alone in this struggle, so to launch my virtual coaching I am going to start a "Summer Sweat" program starting June 1! 💪

And I am looking for anyone who might also need a change right now to join me! We will complete the program together from home with daily support and motivations.

NO JUDGEMENT just like Zumba!

The goal here is much like my goal with Zumba to inspire and motivate others, but I am just exploring a new platform!

*Message me for details!* 😁

Stay safe and stay strong through these troubling times and know that you are not alone. ❤️

I just wanted to say I miss teaching Zumba so much, my next session was scheduled to start April 7th, however no word on if it is happening yet.

Wondering if I could find a way to set it up, would anyone be interested in Virtual Zumba classes (previous students or not!)? :)

Comment below or let me know!

Hope all of you are doing well and cannot wait to see you all soon.

No matter the day you’ve had, you throw it all away in Zumba class. Do yourself a favor and free your mind — go to therapy. Except this therapy involves neon leggings and beat drops.
