Tiffany Kamuche- Hustle & Gospel Groove

   
Tiffany Kamuche, a native of Dallas, Texas, matriculated to Lubbock in 2004 to attend Texas Tech University. Since then she has gone on to attend and graduate from Texas Tech School of Law. To balance the stress of law school, she joined Fusion Fitness in May 2010. “There was no better way for me to distress after a long day than to leave it all on the studio floor. The harder the day the more intense the workout. That way I could go home happy and healthy absent the stressful baggage.” Tiffany enjoyed the Zumba and Hip Hop classes at Fusion so much that she decided to give teaching it a try. After receiving here certification in Hip Hop Hustle from Powder Blue Productions in September 2010, she began teaching Fusion Fitness the following November. A dancer for the better part of her life, hustle was a perfect way for her to fuse her love for dance with her quest for better health. Tiffany believes that one cannot truly be healthy without holistically improving the mind, body, and soul. Tiffany currently teaches Hip Hop Hustle and Gospel Groove at Fusion Fitness.

*Tiffany has been with FuSion since November is just simply wonderful! You can catch her Hip Hop Hustle class in May on Fridays at 7pm and LUBBOCKS ONLY & ORIGINAL Gospel Groove on Sundays at 3pm! Much Love Miss Tiffany & make sure to congratulate on her for graduating Law School at TECH by the age of 24!!! GO GETTER!!!!

Had to share a Blog I found on Facebook....

It was a LONG stressful and over whelming week, we picked up dinner from Wienerschnitzel and as we walked in the door I told josh, "Tomorrow I will start working out, I HAVE to LOSE this weight" he looked at me and said "You cant START tomorrow, You have to start NOW, how do you expect to lose weight if you eat like this?" I got mad, didn't eat dinner and didn't speak to him. Not because he hurt my feelings, but because HE WAS RIGHT...
I knew deep down in myself that I was not going to lose any weight eating fast food, drinking Coors Light and eating chips and Salsa EVERY TIME I had a bad day. I had to change my eating habits and find a work out that worked for me. So here I am... at a weight that I am too ashamed of to put here but I will say it starts with a 1 and ends with a 4... (you can guess the middle number)
I believe that I have prayed long and hard and GOD found me a way to get off my booty and work out. Groupon had a deal for $10 for 5 classes, i bought it. A co-worker told me about a Bikini Boot Camp being offered at 5 in the morning... I committed and when i looked at where it would be held it turned out to be at the same PLACE!!FUSION FITNESS... I began messaging the instructor and right off the bat she was nice, encouraging, and helpful with what classes i should start out with. She told me to try Zumba and "I would get better with time" then told me about a class she was teaching on Thursday morning at 9:00 am... TURBO KICK
I MADE myself get out of bed and go to that class... I LOVED IT!!! Magen was Awesome... she made me feel right at home, she welcomed me as I walked through the door and when I told her I was new, she said "I have been chit chatting with you on facebook" ... the others in the class were great as well, keeping me going when I thought I was going to faint and motivating me to come back and do it again. Needless to say I wanted to go back the next day but work got in the way, so instead I went bike riding with my little man. BUT I went back on Saturday and the class was HARDER and more INTENSE... but again it was AMAZING... I will be back on Monday evening to do it again.. maybe by the end of the week I can add the JUMPS into the routine.
Thank you Magen and Fusion Fitness for making me feel comfortable and for allowing me to come into your studio, and begin working on myself.
Until next week....

*** Thank you Dominica Hernandez for allowing us to share this with others! We are so happy you have joined our FuSion Family! We look forward to seeing you at classes and are so thrilled you will be apart of our May Bikini Boot Camp. You are so sweet and just precious! Thank you again for everything, see you Monday!! :)

Testimonial- Jeannette De La Vega

Hey FuSion Family!
I wanted to do a testimonial and tell you of my journey at FuSion Fitness! It all started one summer day in June 2010 when my husband and I decided to go try out the new chinese restaurant that had opened near our home on 82nd. So on us arriving we see the Zumba sign hanging outside. We get off and we decided to take a peek inside since it was closed. Well as our heads were pressed against the glass scoping out the place and wondering what actually goes on in their. Out from behind us pops out this Happy Cheerful lady named Shelli (that by the way still has the Happiest smile to greet you everyday) asking us you wanna come in and give it a try! We quickly said no thank you were just looking. So while we were eating my husband talked me into giving it a try. He said it would be a great new thing to try and do for myself. Since I had been trying to lose weight on my own. Best thing It was close to our house. So I figured it couldn't hurt since I had seen commercials on people losing weight with Zumba! So on fathers day after eating all our yummy food. I decided to drag my daughter to go do the beginners class with me. I was so nervous knowing that I would actually have to dance at this thing. Which as soon as we walked in I made it a point to stay in the back of the class since I knew I wasn't  the most coordinated person. So in trying  to do all these new movements I felt like a fish straight out of water! Anyway after our 1st experience we liked that it was FuN! Plus Shelli made us feel like we knew exactly what we were doing!In which still till this day her first words to every class is Theirs No Wrong WAy! Just have FuN! So as we kept going and I got comfortable in going we came to find out that it would be moving. We were sad but we had decided that we were having so much fun that we decided to do the move to the new place. Well as we walked in to our first class at the new place the 1st thing I noticed were the MIRRORS! I said Oh My God Im not even confident enough to be dancing much less wanting to see myself. So I always made it a point again to be in the back  for sure where I couldn't see myself or couldn't be seen. Well as the months went by and my daughter stopped going with me. I got the courage to keep going alone. But I wasn't alone for long as I started making new friends along the way. So then I started taking all the new classes like Turbo Kick,Belly Dancing,Yoga, Kiss my Abs & PiYo which is my favorite. And in doing all that while having fun! I have my husband reminding me that he can't believe he had to convince me to go and now he can't get me out of their! Well with me never getting out of there I started to notice that I was losing weight and really starting noticing the changes my body was making. So with that I got much more confidence in myself  that I slowly started creeping my way up to the front and have been their ever since I started liking seeing the New Me!

Turbo Testimonial-- Magen Reaves

Hey FuSion Family!
I wanted to take a moment do a testimonial of my own and just tell you a little bit of my story :) I had my second child (Blain) this past June, I had gained almost 30-35lbs during my pregnancy. I am 5'2 and before my pregnancy weighed around 110, after Blain was delivered I was sitting around 130lbs. I was not comfortable with this weight gain! About 2 months after having Blain a friend of mine had posted on Facebook she was going to a Zumba class at Fusion Fitness. I had never heard of Zumba, had no idea what group classes were or that they even existed, and didn't know a thing about Fusion!  We messaged back and fourth about what the class and studio were about and I was so interested I had to check it out.  I went to my first Zumba class and fell in love, I wasn't the best at Zumba but, the people and the energy had me sold. This was a place I needed to be and I got better at Zumba the more classes I went to. I continued going and fell in love with the Hip Hop & Kiss my Abs! I did classes from August-September then Shelli had informed me there would be a Hip Hop Hustle & Turbo Kick Certification at Fusion come the end of September! I was one of the first to sign up! The only reason I wanted to get certified was to teach Hip Hop, I had never seen or heard of Turbo but, if you did both you get a great deal so, I thought what the heck?! I was certified in both and thought Hip Hop had my heart. I tried teaching a few classes and enjoyed it but, felt it was something I was better at participating in rather than trying to teach others. I began going to Nancys TK classes and started seeing HUGE changes in my body and just the way I felt.  This was IT, I had found my calling!!! I went to Nancys classes for a whole month then begged Shelli to let me have a shot at it and thank goodness she hadn't lost all hope in me LOL. Since November I have been teaching Turbo, I now weigh less than I did before my pregnancy and my body is changing EVERY SINGLE DAY! I am healthy! I am so passionate about TK, I have seen what it can do and am fortunate enough to be proof that it DOES WORK!! When I first started teaching I would pray that maybe just one person would give me a chance to show them that it can do work, and now almost 6 months later I am praying at least 10 people a day let me show them what TK can do!!

If you haven't tried Turbo or maybe have been on the fence about it I beg you give it a chance. There is no right or wrong way, as long as you are moving you are burning calories! The only thing we ask is that you HAVE FUN!!!!! We teach the same Round from 6-8weeks so the class has time to catch on and feel confident! We switch it up to keep your body from reaching a plateau.  We now have THREE TK Instructors...Shelli, Carol, & myself. We all are firm believers and can't wait to have you in class!

We would love to hear your testimonials, not just on Turbo but everything!! Has Fusion changed your life, Are you just obsessed with Zumba, any and everything is welcome???!!! We are always looking for inspiring, motivating, and successful stories!!!

I took self portraits of myself right before starting TK back in September and recently took some updated ones for our BIKINI BOOT CAMP!!!! I still have work to do but, you can see that my body is making changes. :) Will be doing updated photos in 6 weeks for completion of my first Bikini Boot Camp!!! Hope to see you soon!
