How do you view women’s sexuality in our society? I think we’ve come a long way since my mother’s generation. I think there’s still some room to go. There’s a false sense of empowerment floating around out there – a la Girls Gone Wild. But I think it’s great that a woman has the choice to wear whatever and sleep with whomever she wants today.
Why do you teach Zumba? I love helping others get motivated to exercise. When a student comes up to me to tell me that she’s never had so much fun working out or that she was having an awful day until she came to class – those are the most gratifying moments of my job.
What does dancing mean to you? Dancing is a way to tell stories – about the world, about love and loss, and most of all, about who you are.
