Hola!!! I'm Maria Teresa Stone, I am from Mexico but live in Aotearoa (New Zealand). My little family moved here after living in Sydney for almost 9 years, where I taught classes for Fitness First, Virgin Active, my local council etc...
I taught my first “aerobics” class back in 1996 with the support and encouragement from my sister Carmen Aida, I was only 15 years old. Since then I have continue to teach group fitness classes. My sister Eliza Stone introduced me to ZUMBA FITNESS in 2006 and thanks to her initiation I am where I am today in my career!
Zumba is a program that is inclusive, it is for everybody, and helps you get fit and stay fit, physically and mentally. It is truly a joy to be part of the Zumba community!
I became a Zumba Education Specialist in 2007 in Mexico and helped launch the program in New Zealand and Australia in 2009.
I absolutely love what I do! I am blessed to be able to help provide career opportunities to many through my trainings, and create a ripple effect in this wonderful world, all through the power of ZUMBA.
I am the co-founder of group fitness online education
MY GROUP MOVE, and a mum of two little ones :)
Join me at one of my trainings, I would love to meet you.
