Maeve has been dancing her whole life… growing up in jazz classes, cheerleading…and joining the Kickline team in college – dance has always been a major part of her life. Years later…fitness and dance are even more important to her. After a long and stressful day at work…she knows there’s nothing like dancing it all away and getting in shape! She discovered Zumba and fell in love! By learning fun sexy dance moves and burning calories… she soon forgot it’s a workout and began to think of it as a dance party! She hopes that everyone will fall in love with Zumba -Every class is a party and all you have to do follow her lead - it's that simple!

Dominique is a ballet enthusiast with a love for music, movement and all things dance. She began her journey with ballet three years ago, and what began as a weekly activity quickly grew into a great passion for the art form of ballet. Dominique takes ballet, Pilates and yoga classes nearly every day and is a gym and fitness devotee. She is currently taking dedicated pointe classes in addition to her regular ballet classes. The challenge of the technique, joy of movement and rich musicality of the art form keep her constantly motivated and engaged. It is impossible for her to imagine her life without ballet! Dominique has a background in marketing and business, with a Bachelors degree in French and an MBA from the University of Rochester. Prior to her work as an assistant ballet teacher, Dominique had fused her love of dance and academic experiences in a position in the marketing department at Boston Ballet. As an assistant ballet teacher, Dominique looks forward to inspiring a love of movement and music in others.

Alyssa has had the pleasure of enjoying dance in its many forms for over twenty years. Trained in the traditional studio environment while growing up, Alyssa was exposed to jazz, modern, lyrical, and hip hop while focusing primarily on tap and ballet. She competed on the convention circuit throughout New England and nationally while growing up, and continued by dancing in college at Northeastern University (NUDANCO and NU Dance Team). She recently finished cheering for an NFL football team, and is thankful that Gina has given her an outlet to continue pursuing her love of dance. As a mechanical engineer (and cube-dweller) by day, Alyssa absolutely understands the need for us to all let loose and enjoy dance at the end of the day.
