I've been privileged to be involved in the fitness industry collectively for 25yrs, operating in Powell River, BC since 2011. Over this time I've learned how to bring clients a wealth of information and a wide variety of options that enable them to lead an active lifestyle.

About Lyn
Hi! My name is Lyn Oram. I was born and raised in Powell River, BC and proud to still call it my home. I am married with 2 grown boys and work full time as a Legal Assistant.
In 2012, after having surgery to repair a bulging disc in my back, I decided I needed to make a change in my life and get healthy and strong. Partway through my fitness journey, I met Mike. He encouraged me to try Zumba. Although I assured him that I have no rhythm or coordination and I cannot dance, and that High Intensity Interval Training was more my “thing”, I promised I would give it a try…and not just one class, an honest chance…at least 3 classes. As the saying goes, the rest is history. I was addicted from the first class. I started going to every single Zumba party that I could go to. I started out in the back of the room, and gradually gravitated up to the front row. I would ask the name of the songs so that I could listen over and over and try to remember the choreography.
Zumba parties are, for me, my happy place. A place where I can forget about everything except the music and the rhythms and moving! And it is an incredible workout…exercise in disguise. It seemed a logical next step for me to become an instructor, and I am passionate about people experiencing the same high that I experience when I am dancing. Seriously, you do not need to have any dance experience, you just need to move your body and enjoy the music. And I promise to bring energy, fun, FITNESS and SMILES to the party!
Won't you join me?

About Breanne
After the birth of my daughter, I felt physically and emotionally drained. Tasks that I found to be easy pre-pregnancy were considerably more tiring- my back and knees were so sore that I found carrying my daughter to be exhausting. I wondered if this pain would be my new norm. I wanted to have more energy to play with my daughter and let go of the excess weight I had gained. I made a commitment to myself to lead a healthier lifestyle. I was always intrigued by Zumba so I thought I'd try it out and I loved it! After a month of attending Zumba classes and hearing from others how amazing STRONG by Zumba was, I decided to leave my comfort zone and attend a class. I remember thinking in the middle of that class "this is amazing!" and wondering when the next class was. After attending all the classes I could and with encouragement from Mike, I decided to enroll in the instructor training.
I am passionate about life-long learning and committed to encouraging others to experience new insights. I love "AHA!" moments and STRONG by Zumba continually challenges me to let go of my perceived physical limitations while engaging in a FUN workout! The music allows me to lose myself in the workout and it motivates me to keep going.
My interests include spending time with my family, reading, baking, and finding some new way to challenge myself - currently it's learning Braille!
Oh by the way, my new norm is actually that I now have way more energy and strength than my pre-pregnancy self had. Come try a class and see how it will transform you!
