Hi, my name is Maria
I have been doing Zumba® since 2004. Zumba®
continues to change my life style in so many ways, both personal and physical.
I've been a dancer since I was very little, I decided to become a Zumba® instructor
in 2007 because I love dancing and I want to share my weight lost experience with other people. Creating a training habit is a little
challenging; however Zumba® makes it very easy to follow. Once you are hooked
on Zumba® there is no going back, believe me.
I studied at Casa de la Juventud
in Venezuela,
Contemporary and Venezuelan Folkloric
dance for 5 years.
I have Travel Marketing and Sales
Degree.
I am CPR
& AED certified (adults, children & infants) and insured.
Hablo Español.
