Terri Kessler- Owner, Zumba Instructor

Terri fell in love with Zumba during her very first Zumba class.  She was astounded at how much fun she was having in class as she received a high intensity, full body workout.  She knew from that very moment that this was what she wanted to do-be a Zumba Instructor so that she could share her new passion with others.  Terri's ultimate goal was to own her own studio, and she is now fulfilling that dream.

Mary Ann Sasondoncillo-Zumba Instructor

MaryAnn grew up with a nanny who taught her salsa and chacha.  The first music she was exposed to was Cha cha on the rocks!  So , it is no suprise for her to fall in love with zumba...
Before zumba, she had palpitations because of high cholesterol (284).  She had to fix my diet and resort to workouts and zumba became her main cardiovascular exercise.  After three months,  her cholesterol dropped to a normal level, She lost 30 lbs and moved from size 10 to size 3.   Teaching zumba became a personal experience for her- having a goal to give her students an excellent cardio with a fun element in  it. She follows the same principle as Gustov's , the chef in Ratattouille. He said "Everybody can cook".  In her class, "anybody can zumba".....Vamos a bailar

**Mary Ann brings to the studio MANY Zumba certifications: Zumba Basic 1, Zumba Basic 2, Zumba Toning, Zumbatomic. Aqua Zumba, and Zumba Gold.  In addition, Mary Ann holds AFAA certification.
