Sometimes learning simple little steps kind of gives couples a pattern that they can follow, and they feel a bit more confident. I literally melt every time I help a couple with their first dance, and they’re not dancers."

Salsa is a Latin dance and it’s great for stamina and cardio. There’s a lot of movement in the core area and so I feel like it’s awesome for sculpting your obliques and your back and just getting that area moving in general.

Every partner you get is so different, you learn a lot from each of them.

I feel like I am nowhere near perfect and I have my really rough days and my really off days, but I think being aware of it is the first step to helping yourself.

If I was stuck on a deserted island, I would have guacamole.

I ended up gaining a bunch of weight on a vegetarian diet.

Life is a balance, and as much effort as I put into my fitness journey, I needed to put into my own mind journey, my brain is just as important, and loving myself is just as important as loving my body.

Everyone’s on their own journey and nothing’s going to happen overnight and you’re going to have ups and you’re going to have downs, but I think that you need to be content with your own journey and find what works for you."

For lunch, it’s really important to incorporate leafy greens so I’ll always try to have a salad of some sort with either chicken or some turkey or quinoa and then I love to snack on carrots and hummus, I love pretzels even."

It’s amazing how when you feel healthy from the inside out, you show it."

I personally have to go to the gym for a solid workout in addition to my dancing days, and not because I think I need extra exercise, but because I know my body and it's become an important part of my daily routine.

Think about the energy that you want to bring and create for everyone and stay true to that. At our wedding, we wanted everyone to enjoy the party and dance!
