Fatima has always been an athlete and an avid dancer. In her younger years, she progressed in track and dance and won multiple awards. She took a long break and then officially started her fitness journey in 2006. A few years later she met her present husband while they were both coaching track and field. Simultaneously, Fatima went through her own mental health struggles, so she started working out for self-care. Her motto is “work your body and work your mind and it will all work out”. Fatima quickly learned exercise had a high correlation with mental health. Since she was already counseling in the community, she decided to go back to school to earn her master’s degree and professional licensures so she could help others. Simultaneously while earning her master’s degree in 2011, Fatima discovered Zumba. She fell in love with format. Years later she decided to get certified to teach Strong and Zumba. Fatima is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and loves to motivate encourage and inspire others. She influences change, volunteers in the community, and conducts focus groups and trainings. When she is able, she coaches sports. She is licensed in Zumba, Strong, and MixxedFit. She loves to work out and do community events with her husband and son. When you see them all together, they are recognized as “The Keys”.
