Hi, I am Lisa Huseman Hale, 36 years trainer, and original owner and creator of Z Total Body Fitness, here in Fenton. For 29 years, I worked for conglomerate gyms, where members were just a number, a swipe of a card, a face with no name, just going about their workout, most of them hating to even be there.  My dream was to have my own gym one day. And that one day was in January 2012, when ZTB was launched, and a new fitness vibe was born. Where fun meets fitness, where members became my friends that turned into family members, not just a gym member without a name. I always wanted a more personal, relational, safe and fun setting, where all ages and fitness levels would be welcomed.  Where freestyle format classes would always be different, always challenging, never boring, but always fun, where time flies by and you can’t believe you’ve been working out for 2 hours.
ZTB has the friendliest members, best instructors with over 100 years experience in fitness, all on one mission. And I am lucky to call this place my home. Choose ZTB as your new fitness home, and be part of our ZTB Family, we will always welcome you with open arms.

New To Our Team:

Hi! My name is Jody and fitness and wellness are two of my passions. I have been teaching fitness for eight years and I am licensed in several formats including Zumba, Zumba Toning, Zumba Sentao, Zumba Gold, Zumba Step, Strong by Zumba, Turbokick, RIPPED,  Kangoo jumps, Pound, and have my group fitness(AFAA).  Fitness is my sanity saver!  I have 4 kids (2 still in their teens), a husband, 3 dogs, 6 cats, 28 chickens, 2 bunnies and some fish.   So I guess you could say that animals are another passion of mine. I also love to craft and garden (Tower Garden that is!). I really just love to be outside ❤️.  I can’t wait to meet you in class!!

Hi, my name is Linda and I have been practicing Yoga since 1995 and teaching since 2000.  I teach Anusara which maybe new to some of you. My Yoga journey began when I was diagnosed with severe Osteoporosis at a young age, and after I found out that I was allergic to the medication, I started Yoga, and totally reversed my diagnosis. As I patiently grew my practice, I patiently grew as a person.  Yoga taught me to stretch my body, therefore, I learn to stretch my mind along with it. The patience I gained with myself, and the outside world, is amazing.  I am also trained in the study of meditation, and I hope to share that with you as well. In my off Yoga hours, I’m married to Paul, we collectively have 5 children, and I’m a full time realtor with Coldwell Banker.  Hope to see you soon. Namaste! No one ever regrets raising the bar. EVER! 

Hi there, I'm Ashton! My husband, Caleb, and I have been married since 2012. We had our daughter, Olivia, in 2015 and our son, Henry, in 2017. Becoming a mother has been a huge part of my Zumba journey, but it first began in 2010. I was in college, home from school, and like usual, staying up too late. I got sucked into an infomercial for some kind of dance workout called Zumba. I ordered the DVD set because I thought it would be fun to try, especially since traditional  working out just wasn't my thing. My love for it began right then. Throughout the years I'd sporadically do Zumba in my living room, where my DVD set still sits to this day! However, when my son was 4 months old, I decided to take a risk. I was ready to start working out again and I figured the best way to do it was to get out of my comfort zone and start taking Zumba classes in person, which I'd never done! I instantly fell in love with it all over again. Zumba has truly been a saving grace for me. It has not only helped me with my physical health, it has also me with my mental health too. Transitioning to motherhood is difficult and finding something you love and can do for yourself is so important! The thought of becoming a Zumba instructor came naturally and when I decided I wanted to do, I worked hard and took the plunge! Again, very out of my comfort zone. But now, with Zumba, I get my exercise, I get to have fun, and I get my all important me time! The bonus now is I get to share my love of Zumba with others and help them exercise, have fun, and have their me time. ZUMBA!

Hey Guys! My name is Jamie and I hail from Miami, Florida! I've been a Zumba & Zumba Gold Instructor for over 2 years now, and I'm completely obsessed with teaching! Growing up in Miami - I fell in love with the Latin culture, especially the music! So Zumba was a perfect fit for me! Working out should be a party - and there's nothing more I'd rather do than dance the calories away! I am the wife of a former rockstar (my best friend Tony), and we have 3 children: Courtnie (24), Savannah (22), and Anthony (9). Hope to see you soon! "Don't be Moody - Shake your Booty!"

Hi! My name is Amy and I LOVE ZUMBA!! I remember the day 9 years ago when my friend asked me try out a Zumba class with her. I was unsure at first, but the moment the lights went down, and the music went up I was hooked!! I smiled the whole time and still do for every class. I became a Zumba instructor 5 years ago, then added Zumba Toning shortly after. Lovin’ every minute of it!! ❤ I married my love, Rodney, in 1998. I am a mother of 2 beautiful young ladies, Heather age 20 and Grace age 17. We have a 5 month old Doberman baby girl- Duchess. My day job is a third grade teacher, and YES we sometimes dance in class to get the wiggles out!! :) I am excited to be joining the ZTB line-up on Wednesday nights! I can’t wait to party with you on the dance floor!!

Hello, my name is Chris.  I am a wife and mother of 3 adult boys. I am also a new mom with a baby Australian Shepherd/Lab mix named Frankie.

My fitness journey started about 18 years ago.  I joined a club with some of my coworkers and started taking group exercises classes during our lunch hour.  I was so deeply inspired that I dreamed of one day teaching classes myself. 

After a lengthy career in the corporate world this dream became a reality.  I pursued this passion and became a certified group exercise instructor through AFAA.  I also continued my fitness education and received my Barre Above and Senior Fitness certifications. 

I love teaching and I am super passionate about inspiring and improving the health of others, and I am so excited to be joining the ZTB team!  I focus a lot on form, posture, balance, flexibility, and movements that will tone, firm, and sculpt the body providing modifications along the way so that it serves all fitness levels.   I do change my classes up often to keep them interesting, challenging, and of course fun with good music!  I hope you can join me for class! 

Hi my name is Debbie, Mother of two adult children.  I have been a group fitness instructor for over 30 years and have been teaching yoga for about 20 years.  Yoga not only works your body, but opens the mind and spirit.  Through yoga you can connect more deeply with yourself.  It’s that oasis of peace and calm where you come to replenish body and mind.  Here at Z Total Body we come together  supporting each other, laughing and sharing.  We see and honor the brilliance of ourselves and each other.  Namaste.

Hi, I am Sue. As a child I was always active. I competed in gymnastics, as well as diving. After my first child was born, I took up biking and running to lose my baby weight.  In 2000, I was interested in group fitness and became certified, which is when I started teaching classes.  In 2002, I was certified in cycling, Johnny G style, and taught those classes at St. Louis Workout. Then in 2004, was certified in another style of cycling, Mad Dog Cycling.  I continued with running and teaching classes, but in 2012, is when I was introduced to Barre.  I loved the workout and started shadowing. I did that for 2 years, then took it further, so in 2013 went to Nashville, where I became certified in Barre Amped (method).
I now have been teaching with Z Total Body since 2014, and have fallen in love with Barre and it’s competitive results I see in the members.
Meet me at the Barre!!!
