Instructor

Willie Negrillo, born in Lima, Peru, grew up dancing to a variety of music, from folklore to chart-toppers. One day while walking around the mall, Will was asked to participate in a Zumba® demo and fell in love with Zumba® the minute they started moving. Will became a Zumba® and fitness instructor in 2010, and he credits it as one of the most rewarding things he's done in his life. Will has performed at Zumba® events around the world and danced with artists including Kevin Lyttle, Wyclef Jean, Kat DeLuna, and more. In 2020, Will was chosen as a Zumba® Next Rising Presenter finalist and recorded music that landed in one of the Zumba® megamix soundtracks. Will loves teaching Zumba® because it is made for everyone—it gives him the freedom to share different styles of dancing while spreading joy and wellness amongst the participants in the community.
