Having grown up on the streets of Brooklyn, NY, I was surrounded by music and dance from an early age, with memories of watching my father run a nightclub and exciting dance-offs with my siblings and mother. It was evident that my love for music and dance would grow, and it did! Since May 2011, I have been a proud member of ZIN™, and teaching Zumba has brought me immense joy as it allows me to connect with people from diverse backgrounds and cultures. Zumba has the power to help individuals become their best selves, and the blend of music and dance is pure ecstasy! Spreading the love of Zumba in my community fills me with an invigorating feeling that never fades.

I'm Eva Van Derdys, a passionate teacher by day and a vibrant Zumba dancer by night! Hailing from Puerto Rico, where music pulses through our veins, I was raised on the infectious rhythms of Spanish rock, salsa, merengue, and later, reggaeton. With a background in art and fashion, I discovered my true calling in teaching at the age of 32.
Thanks to my love for dancing, my teaching profession, and the unwavering support of Carmen Rolon, I've been able to realize my dream of becoming a Zumba Instructor. Zumba has infused my life with boundless happiness, positivity, and self-assurance, which I strive to share with my students in every class.
For me, Zumba isn't just a workout – it's a party! So come join the fun, let loose, and dance your heart out with us. Let's make every session an unforgettable celebration together!
