Kirsten Powell
My name is Kirsten. I've lived around Carthage my whole life. I'm married to a wonderful husband and am a mom of 2 beautiful children. I originally found Zumba in 2015 before I had my first child. A friend invited me over to play Zumba on the Wii. Instantly had the best time ever and bought it for myself. After I had both my children by 2024 I decided to bring the ol' Wii back out and give her a try again. While on my fitness journey after children, a dear friend invited me to Zumba at our Carthage location and I have been hooked ever since. She also told me I needed to get my instructors license a year later, so I did. Now I enjoy not only getting to dance but I love getting to meet new friends and share my love and joy that I have found in Zumba. I love getting to help them build that confidence to step out and try something new.
