Linda Kargel has been teaching Zumba for over a year but has been in love with it for over 9 years. She was a dance major with a music minor at the University of California Fullerton. Linda has also taught dance for over 10 years. Dance is a huge part of her life and she loves to share the happiness that it brings to all.
A few fun facts about Linda
She worked at Disneyland for 5 years. She actually didn’t dance there, she scooped ice cream and served hamburgers. Also, she is a huge New Kids on The Block fan and I will never miss a concert. She waited 27 years but finally met Donnie Wahlberg. That was number 1 on her bucket list!
Her Client Spotlight
Linda has picked her entire class as her client spotlight. “They are all amazing and I would not be
able to pick out just one student.”
