From a young age, sport played an important role in my life - mostly football and martial arts (jeet kune do, krav maga).My adventure with Zumba Fitness started in 2012 when my friend took me with her to this dance class where all you could hear was Salsa, Bachata, Reggaeton and Samba. The class was lead by a Brazilian dancer and choreographer Jailson De Oliveira. It was love at first sight and that's how I've felt about Zumba ever since! I became regular class member and then in Dec 2013 I became an instructor myself. I was leading classes in fitness clubs in Warsaw, Poland, where I come from.

In June 2014 I moved to London, and here is where one of my dreams came true - I met in person Zumba Fitness Founder, Beto Perez, and even had a chance to teach a class together with him! Since then I've been teaching Zumba Fitness in all high street gym chains in London, such as The London Dance Company, Virgin Active, David Lloyd, Bannatyne Health Clubs, Pure Gym etc.

I always try to work on my instructing skills and learn new things by taking part in dance workshops and Jam Sessions.Moreover, together with our instructors group we regularly organize Masterclasses where we invite Zumba Fitness International Presenters from all over Europe. I am very passionate about the fusion of dancing and fitness, but most importantly because zumba creates a great energy and its a great fun!! Every class feels like a party!! One of the great things about Zumba is that there is no right or wrong way; everybody has their own style and works at their own fitness level.

Come and try it, I guarantee you will have a blast! See you on the Dance Floor!
