I love dancing! I love exercising! I got the Zumba fever in the winter of 2010/11 and have since then been teaching all sorts of Zumba classes and arranging Zumba marathons in and around my home town Linköping, Sweden.

I started my career as a Zumba instructor by attending the Zumba Basic I course held by ZES Izabela Kin-Janda in February 2011 in Lohja, Finland, the country I was born in. I continued my education with the Zumba Gold course given by ZES Lars Wensink in August 2011 in Oslo, Norway. I have since then taken all Zumba courses and I have also taught all types of Zumba classes.

Currently (2020) I regularly teach Zumba Fitness, Zumba Gold, Zumba Step, and Aqua Zumba. I am self-employed as a certified personal trainer (CPT) and licensed Zumba instructor.

In my spare time I enjoy going to social salsa and bachata events as well as visiting Zumba marathons and Zumba colleagues' classes. My other favourite sports include cycling, running, and swimming.

In addition to the membership in the Zumba Instructor Network (ZIN), I am also a member of the European Register of Exercise Professionals (EREPS), IDEA Health & Fitness Association, and Korpen Swedish Exercise Federation. I am also a certified Les Mills Bodypump Instructor and teach classes since 2005.
