This was 12 YEARS AGO!! This was the day my life changed and I’ve never looked back! 🥳
12 years ago I nervously got in my car and began the drive to Cressy, Tasmania (a place I had no idea existed until a Zumba trainer popped up there for a B1 training day from the Mainland). As I walked in clutching my bag and water bottle, I was so nervous to be taking a HUGE step out of my comfort zone. I proceeded to the back of the hall and tried to hide in the back corner. Michael, the trainer was having none of that! He spotted me from the stage and began to walk toward me with a warm and inviting smile. While standing there in front of me introducing himself, I heard me telling myself ‘what the hell are you doing here!?’ and ‘there’s NO WAY I can ever be like him and all of the other awesome trainers like him!!’.
Michael was so natural and easy to learn from. As he guided our group through the training I learnt some incredibly valuable things that day…
Trust yourself, invest in yourself, find your own rhythm and never listen to that voice which will always test you!
As I say to people who have never tried Zumba before or are completely out of their comfort zones; the hardest step is walking in that door. My mission statement to you all is to greet you with a warm and inviting smile so you can feel empowered and seen just as I did all those years ago!
Zumba is more than dance fitness; it’s a way of life and I’m so grateful and thank my lucky stars everyday that this has been my life for the past 12 years ♥️
THANK YOU to you all for your support and friendship - it has been quite remarkable to live in the moments with you, share in the memories with you and dance up an absolute blast while doing so!! I hope and pray to be here in the next 12years sharing in this life with you all 🌺
