How did you find
Springs Salsa & Dance Fitness?
I had
gained over 20lbs and I was a mess! I had tried working out at
gyms and at home, but I would always quit. I have an
insane passion for dance and one of my friends suggested for me
to go to a dance studio. She had heard about Yoga Booty Ballet
on the radio but she didn't know where in town it was. So I
decided to search online and I found Springs Salsa and Dance
Fitness. When I looked at the web site I was in shock to see
such a unique environment in a studio, here in Colorado Springs.
I had to come and see the studio in person and when I did, I
immediately fell in love!
Why do you like the
studio?
I am in
LOVE with Springs Salsa and Dance Fitness! I love the
environment because it is non-competitive. The
staff are amazing people and I absolutely love the owners
because they are beautiful people. If it wasn't for them opening
up the studio, my life wouldn't feel as fulfilled as it feels
now! Each time I am on the dance floor, I just smile because it
is real people on the dance floor dancing their way into
fitness!
What's
your story?
During the summer of 2007, I was wearing
a size 16 and weighing 158lbs and I was in a depressed
state because just a couple of months before I was a size 7,
weighing 130lbs.
I couldn't believe how much weight I had
gained. I tried going to gyms and working out at home but it was
so boring! I always quit the gym routine and that made me even
more depressed because I was giving up so quickly.
I had to make a change and it had
to be soon. So, on November 5, 2007 I went to the studio and
took my very first Zumba® class. I had a great time! I had to keep coming because I
was hooked!
I have been part of the family ever since
then and I have lost about 20lbs and I am a size 9! I've never
felt more alive in my life! I am happy and I am thrilled to say
that I love myself.
I have to thank Springs Salsa and Dance
Fitness for helping me find myself.
About You...
I am 23 years old and I am
Hispanic. I was born and raised in El Paso, Tx.
I have always had a passion to dance and would dance any
chance I got! I was always dancing at family parties, in my
home, at school dances and clubs. I used to pretend I was a
choreographer when I was younger and would make up dances. I
had made up a dance for my 8th grade prom and performed in
front of my classmates just for fun. I had this feeling, in
that 8th grade moment, that I would never forget. I felt
such an amazing adrenaline rush and had told myself that I
would always keep dancing a part of my life.
