Isabella Wakeham, Zumba Instructor - Isabella grew up in the metro Detroit area but now lives in Houghton, MI. She grew up dancing: from dancing for fun in her living room as a toddler to competing for her local dance team. When she started her education at Michigan Tech, she sought to keep dancing and participated in HuskiesFit Zumba classes. She loved it so much that she became a Zumba instructor herself! She has been a ZIN™ Member since May 2019. She teaches both Physical Education classes and HuskiesFit classes for Michigan Tech. To her, the best part of instructing is getting students on campus confident and comfortable enough to let loose during her classes and have a blast while working out!
