Community
We love our GrooveFit community.
Years of classes, workshops, stages, and trips, and friendships that started on the dance floor.
In their words.
Jannelle Cortes is hands down the best Zumba and dance fitness teacher I have ever taken class with. Her moves and music never disappoint. She has something for everyone, whether you are an absolute beginner or accomplished dancer.
The GrooveFit community is strong and supportive and I can honestly say that the majority of the female friends I have made as an adult were through Jannelle’s classes.
I danced with Jannelle for 10 years and thoroughly enjoyed every minute of it. From belly dance to zumba to latin dancing, Jannelle brings an energy and focus that cannot be beat. She even choreographed my wedding dances.
I’ve danced with Jannelle and GrooveFit since 2008 and have traveled to Egypt, Morocco, Jamaica and Cuba with Groove Trips. There will always be a remarkable and heartfelt adventure to have.
GrooveFit is transformative. Jannelle has brought me so much joy with her passion for dance and vibrant classes. I have built confidence, strength, and a community thanks to Jannelle!


Our sister school
Paso a Paso, Havana.
Paso a Paso Dance School and Company was created by director Yuly Rodríguez, a former choreographer and dancer for the world-famous Tropicana, for her community.
Students learn Cuban folkloric, ballet, contemporary, West African, house, and hip hop, with acting and music lessons too. All classes are free, including performance participation. Thanks to Capezio and donations from GrooveFit students and Groove Trips travelers, we’ve helped outfit dancers who need proper attire for class and the stage.
Your spot on the floor is waiting.
Tell Jannelle what you’re looking for, a class for you or a program for your people, and she’ll get back to you with what’s running.
