I am so thrilled to join the Recfit center team as a licensed Zumba Instructor.

I am originally from Montreal, and lived the last 12 years in California. We just moved to Vermont, and coming back to the east coast feels amazing!!!!

Here’s a little bit of me:

First, I want to thank my friend who had me discovered Zumba in summer 2012. It took me a few months to convince myself that I should take the training and become an instructor. And for sure I did!!!!

I’ve been active all my life, and Zumba was the perfect formula for me! I fell in love with the different styles of music, and absolutely the way this amazing workout makes you feel good and joyful!!!!

I’ve been to two Zumba Conferences in Los Angeles (2013-2014), learning from the best certified Zumba expert specialists, and I fell in love again!!! It was so amazing, I could not believe how a fitness class can bring happiness and fun!!! Then I got licensed to teach Zumba Sentao, Zumba Step and Zumba Toning. In 2016, I got licensed to teach STRONG by Zumba. Can you tell I love Zumba!

Last year (2018), I traveled to Orlando FL and went to the Zumba Convention and had a blast!!!!! An adventure I’ll never forget!

My goals with my students is to make them feel confident, happy and successful. Any own styles and levels are welcome! And, don’t forget to smile :>). I bring the moves, and all of you should feel like a rockstar!!!!!
