"You are stronger than you think! Stay true to your own self!"
– Michelle Galvin Filsaime
Hi!
I am Michelle Galvin Filsaime and I am a licensed Zumba® instructor since 2010.
Leave your worries at the door, and just be in the now with me. I love Zumba® and I love how it makes people feel!
Come join my party and I'll see you on the virtual dance floor. Peace. Love. Zumba®.
We take the "work" out of workout, by mixing low-intensity and high-intensity moves for an interval-style, calorie-burning dance fitness party.
The challenge of adding resistance by using Zumba® Toning Sticks (or light weights), helps you focus on specific muscle groups!
Aqua Zumba® blends the Zumba® philosophy with water resistance, for one pool party you shouldn't miss!
The design of the class introduces easy-to-follow Zumba® choreography that focuses on balance, range of motion and coordination.
Zumba® Gold-Toning blends the Zumba® party you love at a slower pace with redefining total body workout using Zumba® Toning Sticks to shake up those muscles!
We combine the awesome toning and strengthening power of Step aerobics, with the fun fitness-party that only Zumba® brings to the dance floor.

My name is Michelle Galvin Filsaime. I grew up on Long Island, New York where I took dance classes for 7 years (those classes included: Jazz, Tap, Ballet, Hip Hop, teaching young children, and teaching Adult Jazz classes.)
I lived in San Diego for 5 years and now currently reside in Lakewood Ranch, Florida! I've been a ZIN™ Member since Oct 2010 and haven't stopped learning. I've attended over 7 trainings (trainings are 8 hour days) and I've gone to over 25 Jam sessions (where I learned choreography to 4-5 songs, for 3 hours, in each session!)
I love Zumba® and I love how it makes people feel! I would be honored to teach you and make you feel the Zumba love that I have and that everyone feels after an awesome class!
The reason is simple: Every class feels like a party and I encourage you to go to as many different classes and be open minded to all instructor's style. That's one of the perks of being a Zumba® instructor...we are al different and have different styles!
Don't pause your life goals. Do them. YOU GOT THIS!
You are stronger than you think.
Stay true to your own sense of self, and just feel the music and HAVE FUN!
