Asiya Khasnutdinova is the Owner and Founder of Valeo Dance Fitness Studio (“Valeo”) located in Buckhead in Atlanta, Georgia. As has been the case of many of our articles lately, Valeo is not our usual dance studio
Valeo, from Latin meaning “to be healthy, strong and feel good,” is a method created by a mother-daughter duo that will help you attain one of the greatest gifts of all – good health. At Valeo Dance Fitness studio, they teach signature ValeoFit 1000, the Ultimate Dance Fitness workout that focuses on healthy weight loss and stress relief that allows you to burn up to 1000 calories in one hour, tone your entire body, strengthen your core and define your waistline while having fun! This is a unique method that combines intense dance fitness cardio based on interval training with Valeo’s “signature” strengthening exercises using weighted hula hoops, resistance bands, free weights and balance balls all while toning every muscle fiber to get the ultimate body!
Valeo Dance Fitness Studio is a place where fitness is fun yet effective and the main focus is on your health! They empower women to be strong, look great and feel sexy! Local celebrities, business professionals and moms swear by Valeo Dance Fitness workout because it does wonders for their bodies, confidence and sex life. Aside from innovative technique and equipment such as weighted hula hoops that do wonders, Asiya believes that Valeo Dance Fitness is more than just a place where people workout out. Valeo has become a family where they socialize outside of class. The women support one another and help each other become stronger and healthier!
The proudest moment Asiya has had coaching is definitely seeing happy faces of Valeo clients – moments when they come up to her after classes and mention that people at work or their family members noticed how much better they look or how their balance and coordination has improved. One of her clients mentioned that her boyfriend noticed a new glow in her because of the classes. That truly is the proudest moment!
Asiya believes that the biggest mistake that dancers make is they try to dance as opposed to letting go and actually dancing. She always tells dancers that over analysis creates paralysis. She tells them that she doesn’t care if they don’t jump the highest and turn the fastest but if they tell her a story with dance and make her feel things, that in her opinion is what really matters!
Valeo has launched Valeo YouTube Channel that’s gaining recognition worldwide – www.youtube.com/user/valeoclub. They have lots of fans in Europe, South America, Australia and Asia. One of their goals is to continue the growth of subscribers and start international master classes and seminars around the world.
Asiya’s passion for dance, health and fitness and desire to help people lead healthier and happier lives were the impetus for her starting her studio. For her, the fact that she does it with her mom, who is a doctor and helps elevate the quality of their classes, is truly a dream come true.
Valeo Dance Fitness Studio is very involved with the community and works with seniors in assisted living homes in Buckhead. They created a special “Tour De Dance” program for the seniors which is essentially dance therapy, i.e. adapted physical training. Valeo Dance helps them improve their coordination, balance, musicality and helps them have fun and smile! Valeo also sponsors and supports Alzheimer’s Foundation GAChapter where Asiya participates in Dancing Stars of Atlanta as a professional dancer and choreographer to help raise funds. Last year, she became a winner together with Dr Bobby Kaufmann. As a couple, they raised over $90,000 dollars and through Dancing Stars of Atlanta they all raised over $550,000. Valeo Dance Fitness Studio sponsors and supports EDIN (Eating Disorders Information Network) which helps women of all ages improve their body images and gain confidence. Asiya participates in an annual Celebrity Dance Challenge as a professional dancer and choreographer.
