Maggie Colecchia

In my teens I was overweight, and in my 20′s I topped the scale at 206 lbs. When I discovered that I was borderline diabetic, I devoted an entire year to exercise and eating better and was rewarded by shedding off 84 lbs. I have been in “fat remission” for over 10 years and I attribute maintaining my healthy weight to a lifestyle that involves cardio work, weight training, and dance. Join my Zumba party every Saturday morning and let me help you achieve your own health goals.

Frankie Valenzuela

Frankie has been formally dancing since the young age of five. In his teen and early adult years, he got into the breakdancing craze and at the same time was lucky to be exposed to many different forms of dance such as Jazz, Salsa, Merengue and Argentine Tango. To this day, you can be sure that if there is a beat in the air Frankie is dancing to it.

While on a treadmill at a local gym, Frankie glanced into the group exercise room and saw what looked like to Salsa dance. That’s how he found Zumba and from that moment he was hooked! He promptly took the next step to become certified and began teaching Zumba. It has been the most rewarding time in his life as he is able to share his passion for music and dance with his students.

Through Zumba you can make new friends, relieve stress from a hard day’s work and meet your fitness goals. Whatever your reason for taking a Zumba class, you will find it is more than just music and dance- it is therapy for the mind, body and soul! See you in class!

Kisha Klein

Kisha is a Chicago girl who has lived in the Phoenix area since 1997. She has always loved music and dancing and considers both a way to relax, have fun, and relieve stress. Then she discovered Zumba. Ditching the workout and joining the party quickly replaced boring workouts on the treadmill and elliptical and incorporated all the things she likes about aerobics and kick-boxing!

Once she realized Zumba was an addiction, she got licensed to teach so she could help throw the party – it’s the perfect outlet for her excess energy.

Because she was in the military, she likes to incorporate a lot of fitness moves in her choreography, so don’t be surprised if you start to feel like you have abs or buns of steel.

It doesn’t matter if you “can’t dance”; it’s just about moving and enjoying the music. Zumba really is exercise in disguise.

Hope to see you in class!

Megan

Three words describe Meagan: fierce, controlled and passionate! While she appears to be a soft spoken person off the dance floor, Meagan exudes liveliness on stage. Her signature style is a mix of hip-hop, house, tap and a smooth groove. Meagan originally hails from Upstate New York and moved to Arizona 15 years ago. Dancing since she was 3 years old, she started with Ballet and Tap lessons. At the age of 7, she was asked to join Sam Wright (the voice of Sebastian the Crab from The Little Mermaid) to do a dancing tour for the Disney film throughout Pennsylvania and New York. By the time she was in her early teens, she started taking Ballet Pointe and joined the dance company program at Plumb Performing Arts Center. Through vigorous training, Meagan started to compete in local Arizona Dance Competitions. It was at these dance competitions were she was drawn to the passionate style of hip-hop. Since then, she has diligently worked to perfect her craft, as well as understand all styles that are incorporated in hip-hop. She continued dancing and performing all styles of dance including hip-hop in high school and throughout college. After graduating from Arizona State University in 2009, she was asked to join Foot Klan Dance Troupe in Phoenix, Arizona. Foot Klan’s mission is to unify communities through street dance and creative arts. Her dance credits include private corporate events, charity functions, music videos and concerts featuring Alice Cooper, Pitbull, MIMS, Baby Bash and Akon.

In 2012, Meagan discovered a new journey with Zumba. After joining the party, she got licensed to teach. She desired to invest time into other’s health and wellness, with the goal of empowering people to stay active! Fun Fact: Meagan received her Bachelor’s in Graphic Information Technology and Photography. She is an active Web Designer, SEO manager and Photographer.
