SAMANTHA GRANT
Biography
Hi and please call me Sam.
I am AFLCA certified in Group Excercise and have a designation in Choreography.
My specialty is Zumba which I have been teaching for over 6 years.
Throughout my life I have studied Ballet, Jazz, and Hip Hop. I love to travel and am drawn to Latin and African rhythms. Zumba helps me to explore the world a little more and meet other lovely passengers along the way.
My goal is to introduce basic dance steps, integrate strong fitness principles, and enjoy the rich diversity of cultures through World Music. With good core strength being imperative for all activity, fluid movements and their safe execution is a primary concern in my classes.
I strive to find unique and appropriate music and choreograph with a nod to folkloric dance traditions.
I am Bilingual in English and French and currently studying Spanish.
Daily, I chase a 8 year old boy around and teach Zumba in several locations around Calgary.
I am also an ACTRA actor in Film and Television.
The Canadian Army also hires me on contract as a Role Player to train new soldiers soon to be deployed. The simulation excercises teach compassion and appropriate interactions with civilians in war situations.
Please come and join me in my joy of Zumba and dance around the world!
