Hi there! I am Shelby Markle and live in Farmington, NM. I've been teaching Zumba for over 5 years and frequently cite it as "my true love," (don't tell my husband hehe). There are many reasons Zumba has captured my heart, but I'll keep it simple: it makes me feel good. Zumba is cardio workout (which gets the endorphins flowing AND improves heart health), set to kick ass music (that drowns out distractions) , with a group of boss ladies and gentlemen focused on encouraging and empowering one another. It's happy hour devoted to BUILDING YOU UP mentally, physically, and emotionally. What's not to love? ♥
