Kass’ experience in the fitness industry dates back to a young age when her mother was a fitness instructor and would bring Kass to observe her aerobics classes. Kass took note of this fit lifestyle and maintained it through her teens. She took up dance in high school before joining the dance team at Utah Valley University and eventually followed her mother’s footsteps when she became a fitness professional as an adult.
After teaching aerobics class for several years, Kass tried her first Zumba class in 2008 and was instantly hooked, consumed by the manner in which the Zumba program combined her passions of dance and fitness.

This woman has totaly sold her self out. This was the sadests interview I have ever heard.
Ha sold herself out? How would you explain that? She has taken something she loves and teaches others around the world how they can do the same. She’s an amazing example of beauty and confidence and is down-to-earth and so sweet. Also, sadests is not a word <3.
I really enjoyed this episode!
I was very surprised because I’ve tried Zumba and it’s not for me (too much ballerina in my blood I guess).
But I loved hearing from a mom who works and keeps things in balance.
Thanks!
