Gay Chaplin My view of Wellness is a holistic one incorporating physical mental and spiritual aspects of the self-experienced through dance. I have been a Zumba instructor for the past 4 years at the Cashiers/Glenville recreation center. I’ve recently become certified in BeMoved dance fitness and currently teach BeMoved at the Cashiers/Glenville recreation center. When I’m not dancing, I enjoy cooking and getting together with friends in our beautiful area!
