Kat Souto
Skinny Genes was something I was not born with and maintaining my weight is something I will always have to "work" at. A few years ago a friend and I started a journey to work out, lose weight, and get healthy! We had reached our goals but realized that we would be doing this until we were old and grey. Then we found Zumba! The Zumba classes at my gym were so much fun that after a year I decided to get certified as an instructor. You don't have to be Ginger Rogers or Fred Astaire to join this party or enjoy Zumba... I know I'm not. And if you have dance experience, Great! You will enjoy bringing your own flare and style to class and let loose and enjoy yourself.
My background may not be in music or dance but I love all kinds of music. I am of Brazilian, Argentine, and Italian descent and can appreciate being able to teach a class with such diverse music.
If you have to exercise, you might as well have fun doing it! For me... there is no better way than ZUMBA!
"It's the only way for me to get an amazing workout without feeling like I'm "working" out. There is nothing better than losing yourself in music and enjoying yourself and watching those around you do the same!"
