Ana works as an HR Manager during the day and enjoys teaching Zumba as her “professional hobby”. In fact, she has been dancing her way through Zumba classes for the last ten years! As a fitness instructor specialist and licensed Zumba instructor since 2013, Ana has had the opportunity to teach various class formats including Zumba Kids, Zumba Gold (for our older adult populations) and Zumba Toning (with light hand weights). Ana’s favourite aspect of teaching group fitness is the friendships and comradery that develops as a class grows and develops over time.

You do not need to be a “dancing queen” when you step into a Zumba class – with practice, and a sense of humour, for when we all take those unplanned solos (including Ana herself!) the Zumba class becomes easier to follow as you learn the movements and cueing that Ana will introduce. Zumba will take you on a journey around the world and you will experience different Latin and world rhythms all in one 45 minute class.  Come join Ana for the next Zumba class on the schedule!
