Congratulations to Stephanie – Our May Member of the Month!

Studio K member, Stephanie Turkovich discovered her love for dance fitness a little over a year ago, after taking her first Zumba class at a local gym. Soon after, she heard the news of Studio K’s grand opening and quickly found herself attending as many Zumba classes as she could. Since then, Studio K has become a huge part of her weekly workout routine. Some of her favorite classes include Zumba, Hip Hop Xtreme Cardio and Flash Mob Cardio. Eventually, she would like to branch out and try a few other styles, as well as participate in more Studio K flash mob events!

Originally from Beaver Falls, Pennsylvania, Stephanie moved to Orlando in 2006 after completing the Disney College Program. Currently, she works as a Phlebotomist for Florida Blood Centers and occasionally can be found working on the Big Red buses that you see traveling around the Orlando area conducting blood drives. On her down time, Stephanie likes shopping, traveling, spending time with family and friends, as well as attending local events involving arts and entertainment. One little interesting fact that you may not know about Stephanie is that she works seasonally as a Steam Engine Engineer at the Magic Kingdom!

Congratulations Stephanie, on being our May Member of the Month!

What is your favorite class at Studio K?

My favorite classes are Zumba and Hip Hop Xtreme Cardio.

Do you find that dance is a great way to stay in shape?

Dance is definitely a great way to stay in shape. It has toned parts of my body that my regular cardio/weight routine never has.

What motivational advice can you give someone who is starting a new workout
routine?

My advice would be to get a workout buddy. Two people that share the same fitness goals are more likely to help each other stay on track and maintain motivation.

What do you look for in a workout that will keep you coming back for more?

I like to switch up my workouts. I get bored with routines pretty quickly. When my workout no longer leaves me sore the next day, I know it’s time to mix it up.

If you could tell anyone one thing about being a member of Studio K, what would it be?

Studio K is such a welcoming environment for dancers of any level. It’s a place to dance for fun or to build skills.

If you could be anything at all in this world, what would you be?

Honestly, I don’t know what I would be!

What is one motto you choose to live by?

“Everything happens for a reason.”
