ZATZ' small team has accomplished more in the Internet publishing world than many companies with literally hundreds of times the employees. We're an eclectic bunch, with lots of different interests, backgrounds, capabilities, and quirks. Somehow, we make it all happen and have loads of fun in the process.

 Denise Amrich
Denise is Vice President and Managing Editor for ZATZ Publishing. Denise is responsible for the on-time production of our publications. A co-founder of the company, she previously held event management positions at Princeton University and Lockheed-Martin.
Denise Amrich is a certified YogaRhythmics/DansKinetics and Soma Yoga teacher, as well as a Personal Trainer, Hypnotherapist, and NLP Master.
Her fascination with many subjects prompts her to offer herself as a "bridge" between disciplines in order to facilitate her students' compassionate understanding of themselves, others, and their world. For example, she enjoys things like bringing the Yoga Sutras into a gym environment or into her "day job" as co-founder of ZATZ.
Denise often introduces elements of trance and visualization into her multi-level Kripalu DansKinetics/YogaRhythmics classes, which also happen to be a kickin' cardio workout. She loves creating her classes as powerful rituals, using words, movement, symbol, and music in order to transmit a transformative, fun, meaningful, spiritual experience for all who partake.
