Carmen Carrasco-Arevalo

Hips & Hair Flips

Carmen has been teaching Group Exercise and Dance Classes for over 10 years. After receiving her B.S. Degree in Kinesiology in 2014, she is pursing her career in Personal Training. It's the perfect career path for someone who LOVES body movement.

Carmen fell in love with movement when she was a little girl while playing sports and learning how to dance. Her athleticism has led her to participate in sports like: basketball, volleyball, track and field, as well as train in various martial arts like: Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, Muay Thai, Boxing, and Capoeria. Her love for dance has led her to train in: Tahitian, Hula, Afro- Brasilian, Afro-Haitian, Salsa, Merengue, Cumbia, and her current love, SAMBA! With Samba, she has competed and won the title as "Queen of Carnaval" for San Francisco in 2010 and for Santa Barbara in 2013. She looks forward to competing again in the near future. 


Now, she is joining the DanceVibes Family because she shares the love of dance and creativity. Her class, "Hips and Hair Flips", is a fusion of all her dance backgrounds! It's FUN, it's SEXY, it's a FULL BODY EXPERIENCE! ​​​
