"Zumba is my alcohol, cigarette and anti depressant"
My name is Laurine and I have been doing Zumba since 2005 and I got certified as a Zumba instructor in June of 2006. I started my first official Zumba class in Feb. 7, 2009. I was 3 months pregnant when I got certified and got busy with motherhood and I didn't have the energy and time to focus on teaching Zumba. However I attended Zumba classes to get back in shape and to revitalize my self. Since I got certified I have watched Zumba spread like wildfire, the women I got certified with started their own classes and I saw Zumba EVERYWHERE! So after a lot of thinking and sorting my schedule I decided I was ready to teach. Zumba is FOR EVERYONE! Don't worry about "not knowing how to dance", not being able to follow the steps, and being uncoordinated... ZUMBA will help you with that! Not only is Zumba for weight loss but it is also an excellent way of relieving stress and keeping you mentally healthy. Please don't hesitate to approach me if you have ANY questions or need help with steps or just want a song title, I am here for you 
Once you're in the Zumba zone, just SCREAM, SHAKE IT AND LET YOURSELF GET LOST IN THE MUSIC, DON'T BE SHY- NO ONE IS JUDGING YOU! Let me hear you say ''WOOOO" in class - it lets me know that you are having fun and I'm doing my job right!!!
