Hello! My name is Jami DeHaan and I’ve been a certified Zumba instructor for 11 years.

I’ve always enjoyed dancing and coming up with my own choreography. I became a Zumba instructor to share my love of dance, while encouraging students to just be themselves and have FUN! There are NO wrong moves in Zumba, just keep moving and smile I always say

Brian Harris

Strength & Conditioning Coach

Hey Max Effort Family, I am coach Brian. I grew up on the east side of the state in Fenton, Michigan. Playing soccer at a high level and other sports was my life. I have always been fascinated with sport performance and continue to learn and grow in the field as much as I can. After high school I attended Central Michigan University, completing my Bachelors Degree in Exercise Science. Soon after I had the opportunity to move to South Florida to train athletes of all ages. After several years working with high school, collegiate, NFL combine prep and professional athletes, I earned an opportunity to be the Head Strength and Conditioning coach at American Top Team in Coconut Creek, Florida. While there I was one of many puzzle pieces to help bring American Top Team their first UFC champion, Robbie Lawler. A couple notable athletes I have had the pleasure of working with include Robbie Lawler, Dustin Poirier, Jorge Masvidal, James White, and Jeff Conine. I am excited to bring professional standards to anyone looking to improve their overall athletic performance and fitness levels.
