We've all been to exercise classes where you just didn't get anything out of it, didn't break a sweat, got frustrated your first visit because you couldn't catch on to the "routines" everyone's been drilling for weeks, or perhaps was just bored half to death right??? And you wonder... what was the point??? LOL Well, NO more being discouraged....it's time to have FUN, shake your groove thing, increase your confidence on the dancefloor, (Did I mention FUN), meet new people w/ common goals....and all while losing weight with this extreme cardio workout in a no-pressure, judgment-free, relaxed environment!
Welcome to Zumba® with Kristen !!
Everyone's talking about it..and doing it now...so come JOIN the PARTY!!!!
WHAT'S ZUMBA®?? Zumba® is a popular Latin-inspired dance fitness regimen that fuses aerobics with dance. During Zumba classes, we will be jamming to the beat of popular Latin rhythms such as merengue, salsa, samba, bachata, cumbia, and reggaeton. Zumba means to “move fast and have fun.” The class format combines fast and slow rhythms that tone and sculpt the body in an aerobic/fitness fashion to achieve a unique blended balance of cardio and muscle-toning benefits. The best thing about ZUMBA® is that you forget you are exercising because you are having so much fun!
Zumba ® is a workout with a dance party feel!
~ Love the music and your body will respond and love you back~
I'm super excited to start teaching Zumba ®in the Raleigh-Durham areas! Prepare to SWEAT & have FUN while doing it!!

CLASSES ARE OPEN & ADAPTABLE TO ALL FITNESS/DANCE LEVELS! Classes are not progressive, so no need to fear jumping right on in at anytime. I plan to teach classes as if it's everyone's first time and offer different intensity levels to accommodate all. Zumba is designed for everyone, every shape, age, and fitness level. The program is not limited to dancers, salsa dancers, or fitness fanatics. All exercisers from beginer to advanced can enjoy the benefits!
