Zumba Kids Training

Donation protected
Hello! My name is Kristina. I am almost done with getting my degree in early childhood education and will be starting student teaching in January 2019! Just 5 more months!! I attend Grand Canyon University through their online program and love it because I can make my own schedule and work at the same time. Currently, I am out of a job, but hope to hear something back this week. However, the Zumba training I hope to attend is in Georgia on September 16th, which is less than a month away, and will put my possible first paycheck coming too late to help contribute to the funds to make this happen. 

Why I want to be a zumba instructor!

I was trying to think of ways to still bring in money while student teaching and I suddenly saw an add to be a Zumba instructor. I always loved Zumba, so out of curiosity I clicked the link. Then, I saw that they had a program for kids and I was SOLD! I got so excited! Working with kids is truly the only thing I enjoy doing as a job and I thought it would be a great way to combine my love of children and working on being healthy.

I recently had weight loss surgery to help me with my health and have lost almost 100lbs since my heaviest weight! Now that I can keep up with Zumba, why not become an instructor for something I love doing, help others find a love for it as well, and get paid to keep losing weight and staying healthy!?

What is the money going towards?
The cheapest round trip ticket I can find to Georgia is roughly $200 last I checked. The Zumba training class is currently $300. I have money saved up for the class, and just need some assistance to get a ticket out to Georgia. 
The class is from 7am-6pm and includes: 
Electronic Instructor Manuals
Certificate of Completion
The Ultimate Music & Choreo Video Collection To Launch Your Zumba Kids® Career
Fitness Certification Credits (varies by country)
Online Videos to Review Basic Steps
ACE CEC's
AFAA CEU's

Overall, I am asking for assistance with this because it is a chance to enhance my health, my career, and my life as a whole. I see huge possibilities in my future as a Zumba instructor to enhance my connections with children and the community as well as helping my future financially. Anything you can give to help is very much appreciated!
