I found Zumba, and it changed my life🌟 After years of battling with my weight and realizing I was about to turn 40 and I weight over 110kgs.. It was time!!! I had all a woman could ask for and clearly plenty more 😜 An Amazing son, Passion for Dance , I owned a Dance School ,even tho I wouldn’t be caught in the sights of the mirrors..or on the my own dance floor.. great supportive Family...YET I was very unhappy with myself hadnt taught a dance class in years and hated leaving the house... Being me... was awefull and sad...One may even say I was depressed... I dressed in double layers triple sometimes🤔 ...that just added on the “fluffiness”.. or Black a lot off black...😞 The struggle was real!! Being Latina and growing up in A very Latin Home and Culture (usually very loud, confident and outspoken people... always the first to arrive at the party even tho they haven’t even walked in..) NOT ME....somewhere along the way I had lost my “Flair”... I was shy, always hiding not to be seen...disconnecting from everything and everyone...crying in dressing rooms...🙄😞 Meeting the man of my dreams by accident and chance one admin day at Studio in my many layers of cloth🙈... There he was Latin Dark Short😆 but handsome 😍😍😍 And all about Fitness, ZUMBA ... & Dance...Cut a long story short ... 💥BOOM💥 I had found a reason.... & with that I found ZUMBA.. loved everything about it, made me feel Alive, SEXY, gave me a purpose and soooo much Fun... made it seem so easy and it showed results..challenged everything in Me...brought back to life that Latin Sparkle that was Dead.... Gone... hibernating☺️☺️ AND yes.... yesssss Im Still talking about Zumba!!! Daniel however the above mentioned as Love of my Life...Motivated me and showed me the way, made me believe in me always... He claimed to Love my fullness tho I always thought I was way too much sand for his truck.. literally😳 ), but he saw how unhappy I was with my weight and helped me do the change for Myself. So I took the chance made it my life goal and through Zumba, lot’s of Love,Support and lot’s of Complaining yes I moaned all the way through ... all the excersices all the “funny” foods and lack of...🙄 but I started making healthier choices... and Zumba’d my Big Booty into shape....😓😓😓 Not a diet or a gym or any boot camp had me that motivated... trust me been there done all.. never even got a T-shirt NADA! I discovered that with ZUMBA dancing which I seriously Loooove and was so much Fun I started giving my body what it needs and not what I thought it needed and felt was good for me...Not what books told me too ...come on!!! I once tried to diet with nothing but pineapples for a week ....🍍🍍🍍uhm..did it work?! Yeah... NOOO!! Was peeing bright yellow for days 😲...but NO! It was all about what worked for me that eventually worked .. No magic Pill No magic diet just determination and things I enjoyed doing ZUMBA the dancing and eating in moderation and making healthier choices.... made me do more want more .. It was the right thing for ME... Soon I was back on the Dance floor ... Confidence was growing and I found myself Happy Again... I started wearing tight clothing... one layers ... YEAH That’s Rite... 😜 leggings... I mean a lot of leggings...like a lot) I collect them 🙄🙈.... My son is happy I now walk and play with him... drive bike even a few skateboard failed attempts have been documented... We even got 2 dogs... and thats priceless.. the day he said “ Mom I like it now that you fit You actually do things with me and you happy”.. yeah Me all smiles🙃🙃🙃 Daniel the Love of my Life is still the love of my life... My business partner, My everything and after all this Amazing journey and all the support and dreadful planks squats, drill sessions tears and sometimes ... aggressive Latin outbursts.... 👉🏻🤛🏻👊🏻🙌🏼💪🏻🤚🏻😤😵 He is proud and probably grateful (silent but grateful)to actually be the one who moves me around now😜) One thing for sure not only do I love to leave the house now ...Im always the most colorful one anywhere I go...I make cues look like Carnival... Needles to say I became a Zumba Fitness instructor it’s been a year now that I am officially a ZIN certified Member... And now I just want to be that extra push in others lives and help others achieve the same😁 So yes I say find what works for you!!! Oh .... and in case you Wondering.... this time I got the T-shirts!!! #zumbalove #proudtobezin #lifechanges #allwedoiszin
