Robin Rhoden
Yin Yoga200 RYT
My name is Robin Rhoden, I grew up on a farm in Upton Wyoming, with three older sisters and a little brother. My sister and I learned about yoga in Highschool and our passion for yoga grew from there. I completed my yoga training with Pranashama Yoga. I’m grateful God brought me in a direction that is healing for the mind, body and soul. I’ll be teaching a morning Yin class that focuses on gentle poses that are held for time to increase flexibility and discipline for the mind.

I have been practicing yoga for over 15 years and teaching for over 13 years. My styles of yoga are Vinyasa and Hatha where I focus on alignment, breath, balance and reducing stress. While my classes can be challenging, I always make them accessible to all levels, including beginners. When people tell me they cannot do yoga because they are not flexible, I tell them yoga would help them become more flexible and you can start yoga at any age.

Bronté Curley
ZumbaLevel 1 Certification in Zumba / Teaches at CCPR
Hello, my name is Bronté Curley and I have been a Zumba instructor for 6 years. I grew up in a small rural community on the Navajo reservation in Arizona. Growing up as a child I have always loved dancing and was fortunate enough to be a part of a small ballet company called “The Dance Space '' which is located at Page, AZ. I danced ballet throughout my elementary, middle, and high school years along with two years of college at WWCC where I earned awards and scholarships to continue my love for dance. Being a part of this dance company has been the biggest part of my life and I wouldn’t be where I am today if it weren’t for my dance training as a child. I was introduced to Zumba 6 years ago and fell in love with aspects of what Zumba brings to the dance floor. Zumba is more than just a one hour workout because it brings the community together, creates new friendships and most importantly, it benefits our health while we dance and move to fun music. Zumba is a Latin based dance fitness corporation that includes a mixture of dance styles such as merengue, bachata, salsa, reggaeton, hip-hop and so much more to keep you sweating and grooving. I appreciate the opportunity of being a part of this event and showcasing what Zumba can do to uplift your mood and health. I am currently teaching two Zumba classes at the Recreation center here in Gillette, WY. I look forward to growing the Zumba community and helping the people of Gillette become more healthier one dance step at a time. Thank you so much and I hope to see you one day on the dance floor!
