Natalie Christensen

Group Fitness Instructor

Music and dance have always played an important role in Natalie’s life. As a little girl, she was obsessed with watching music videos, copying all the moves, and practicing them in front of the mirror until she got them down perfectly. Being from a small town in Germany she didn’t have an opportunity to fulfill her dance desires as part of a competitive team or get trained professionally. But as she grew older she loved going out with her friends to hit the dance floor and everyone knew what time it was when they’d show up.

Fitness was never really her passion until she discovered her biggest passion in life: dance fitness! It helped her break out of her shell and be more confident in herself and her self-taught dance skills. Not to mention that she saw and felt the benefits of the workout, which she is currently rediscovering as a toddler mom.

Having served as a proud and passionate instructor for over a decade in Germany as well as in the United States, she knows that spreading the love and joy of dance fitness is her calling. Making dance accessible to anyone and being able to see others break out of that exact same shell she used to be in, has been one of the biggest rewards in her life. She never stops pushing herself, continuously works hard to improve her skills, and has certifications by AFAA, Zumba, BollyX, and GROOV3 under her belt. She loves a large variety of genres and dances, but Hip Hop is where she feels most at home. Come try her class and unleash that inner backup dancer!
