While going to Zumba classes four to five times per week, she worked a full-time job while also simultaneously taking care of her young children. A wife and mother of five, she realized balancing a family and career may be tough, but she was a strong believer that finding time for yourself, your health and mental well-being are very important and set a strong precedent for her family and others.
A year later in 2012, Renee took a leap of faith and became a certified Zumba instructor. She wanted to share her love with others who had the aspiration to become a better stronger version of themselves and discovered the healing powers of dance fitness.
Today, Renee is the President & Founder of Healing Thru Rhythm where she aims to meet the health and wellness needs of the community and embrace mental stability through dance fitness.
