Aglaya was drawn to fitness from the inside out. Her heart led her to fitness. Aglaya is a Registered Nurse who in the year 2000, was working in a pediatric hospital ward. She had many patients, but the ones with Leukemia really tugged at her heart. After one of her little friends left this life, she found herself signing up to do a marathon benefitting the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society. 3 Marathons later, Aglaya decided she really enjoyed pushing herself to be the best she could be, both physically and mentally. Daily physical activity together with proper nutrition is the way to a better body and mind. Zumba fitness not only works the body, it works the whole self. The mind must figure out the steps, the heart must pump harder to get the body to burn calories, then you catch yourself smiling in the mirror and remember how fun and valuable the "me" time really is. Aglaya has found music and dance in Zumba fitness can fill the soul so there is something special to contribute to the world the next day.
