Ruby has been teaching Zumba at the Auburn Fit 1 for almost two years. She teaches on Thursdays at 6:30 p.m.
She discovered Zumba seven years ago, and fell in love with it because it combined dancing and Latin music and it didn’t feel like exercising. But she stresses you don’t need to be a “dancer” to enjoy Zumba and get an effective workout. Everyone can do it! She enjoyed it so much, that she became certified and has been teaching since April, 2014.
Ruby has been married to her husband, Mark for 31 years. They have three children; Jordan (28), Michael (26), and Alexandra (22). Ruby and Mark retired from Hewlett Packard in Roseville in 2012. During the school year, Ruby is a volunteer tutor with Kids First and Excel in Roseville. She and Mark keep busy with improvement projects around the house and yard, increased exercise, and travel to some of their favorite places like Napa, Yosemite, Hawaii, and Seattle.
