“Becoming a Zumba® Next Rising Presenter has been one of the biggest dreams of my life. This journey taught me that passion, hard work, and believing in yourself can open doors you never imagined. I’m so grateful to everyone who supported me. If I can do it, you can too. Never stop chasing your dreams. See you somewhere around the world!”
“Becoming the Zumba®️ Next Rising Presenter has been a life-changing moment for me. Zumba has given me confidence, purpose, and a global family. As a former hip-hop dancer, I’ve always loved expressing myself through movement, and Zumba allowed me to share that passion with even more people. I’m truly grateful for everyone who believed in me, and I hope to keep representing South Korea proudly while spreading the joy of Zumba around the world.”
“This opportunity changed everything for me, a small town island girl who thought big dreams were out of reach. Now, I'm living proof that they're not! I want to pay it forward and remind you all to keep shining bright, continue to chase your dreams and to always reach for the stars! I’m rooting for you! CHEEEHUUU!”
“Applying for Zumba's Next Rising Presenter contest was the best decision of my life! The energy, passion, and enthusiasm that Zumba® brings to people around the world are simply incredible. I encourage everyone to take a chance and try for this amazing opportunity.”

“As the 2020 winner, I was able to lead a Master Class at ZINCON™ 2022, and was featured in ZIN™ 97 and ZIN™ 103 – both experiences were equally challenging and rewarding and I enjoyed every second of it.”
“This talent hunt is so special to help you grow, and become bigger so fast!”
“Being the Zumba® Next Rising Presenter Winner was the best thing that ever happened to me. It helped me understand who I am, what I am capable of, but most importantly, how important it is to have a community around me.”
