"I was in a very low point of my life when I was first introduced to Zumba®.  Because of things I was going through and the difficulties of being a single mother, I could not do the one thing I loved most... Dance.  After trying a few Zumba® classes, I realized I wanted to be an instructor. I became certified in December 2010 and Zumba® has brought me to different avenues which have allowed me to dance again as well."

Melissa is not only a ZUMBA® certified instructor, she is also a dancer and auditions and performs in various shows.  She is CPR/AED certified, as she works in the medical field as well.

Melissa's Zumba® classes are full of energy and laughter.  She not only helps her class participants to feel good about themselves and have fun, but she takes the time to go over any questions or concerns which would allow them to feel comfortable with any class.

As of 2013, Melissa has put a hold on dance and her fitness license, and primarily assists Owner/Operator Terrace Johnson with various Clerical/Administrative duties.
