Meet our team
Yosery Petit Moncada
Founder and director of I Love Chicas Academy and ILoveChicas Experience.
32+ years of experience in dance, movement, and group leadership.
My journey began at the age of five in a talent school, where I discovered that dance was my language and my path. Since then, I have evolved with my craft, turning my talent into a life’s work.
My work includes Latin Dance in all its forms, Soca, Zumba (12+ years, adults, teens, kids, and Aqua Zumba), Twerk, strength training, and a strong focus on women’s pelvic floor health and hormones.
I mentor instructors, manage dance and fitness projects across multiple gyms, and design experience-based programs for women, adolescents, and children.
Perseverance, structure, and long-term growth define the way I work.
Living from my talent is an honor I deeply value.
Guilty pleasure: Always taking care of others.Popcorn.
My free time, you can find me:
Watching movies or just sitting down doing nothing.
Alix Rojas
"My dancing career began at a young age since in Latin America, you learn to walk and dance at the same time. At school, I excelled in athletics, not realizing that as time passed, these two disciplines would lead me to become a Zumba instructor.
As a dance instructor, I strive to transfer my own experience, basic steps, and aerobic exercises with my own stamp and style with great enthusiasm, so that you forget about everything during an hour of class and enjoy your body in motion."
