I am proudly Venezuelan and a mom to twin girls and a boy. I am completely in love with Zumba Fitness, which has become my passion and stress reliever.

I am proudly Venezuelan and a mom to twin girls and a boy. I am completely in love with Zumba Fitness, which has become my passion and stress reliever. I started taking Zumba classes in 2009, and in 2017, I decided to become a Zumba instructor. Since then, I have been teaching. I refer to Zumba as my "Happy Hour." To me, Zumba feels like a party—it's a time for fun, laughter, and spending time with friends!
Fitness does not need to be something you HAVE to do, but rather something you WANT to do.
For me, a healthy lifestyle is much more than just exercising. It’s about eating healthy, stretching, mindfulness and getting necessary rest and enough sleep. I love teaching others, see and experience how their bodies can move. I’m very passionate

Through positive thoughts come positive changes both mentally and physically, all you have to do is take that first step on the journey to your new life. We only get one body, so let’s keep it moving!

Paola believes movement is powerful, not just for fitness, but for confidence, energy, and overall well-being!
Her passion for dance started at age six with ballet and jazz, later leading her to musical theatre in Mexico and high school dance competitions. In 2014, while working on her PhD in Stem Cells and Regenerative Medicine in Sheffield, England, she became a licensed Zumba instructor. After taking a break to focus on family, she returned to teaching Zumba in 2023 and now brings her energy and enthusiasm to the YMCA.
By day, she’s a Research Associate at the Alberta Children’s Epilepsy Program, running Knowledge2Empower, an educational initiative that creates engaging resources to raise awareness about epilepsy. By evening, she’s bringing the energy to Zumba classes, helping people move, sweat, and have a blast!

I was never one to get up and dance at a party in front of people. I always chair danced. But, when I walked into my first Zumba class, I knew I had come home.

I’m Trina, a dancer, Zumba instructor, and a lover of music and movement! With roots in Indian culture, I grew up singing—and that love for music soon led me to dance. Over the years, I’ve trained in both Eastern and Western styles, and I’ve had the joy of performing at multicultural events here in Alberta.
In 2012, I took my first Zumba class and was instantly hooked. The energy, the music, the fun—it felt like I had found my calling! I became a certified Zumba instructor in December 2024, and now I get to do what I love every day: help people feel strong, happy, and confident through dance. My choreography are fun, safe, effective, and designed for all fitness levels, blending a variety of global rhythms to lift your soul with full of energy!!

I am Joanna, a mom, an employee, your Zumba Instructor. It took me years of trying, learning and overcoming my insecurities to finally realize how much I love to lead, teach and share that working out can be as fun as dancing. I also would love you to experience the joy, friendship and support of Zumba Community

I’m Shruthi. I grew up in India and have been living in Calgary since 2012. Like many of us, I grew up watching Bollywood and other Indian films, which deeply influenced my love for music and dance. I was always an active person during my school and college days, but after becoming a mom, it became challenging to stay consistent with exercise.
In 2017, I discovered BollyX, and it reignited my passion for movement and fitness. Since then, it has become an important part of my life. In October 2023, I also began learning Bharatanatyam, a classical Indian dance form that connects me to my roots in a meaningful way.
Dance, for me, is not just about movement it’s a powerful form of expression. It brings joy, builds confidence, relieves stress, and creates a sense of connection within ourselves and with others. It’s a reminder that it’s never too late to rediscover your passions and prioritize your well-being.
