Gina Ursetti

Hi all! 

My name is Gina Ursetti. I am 22 years old, I currently reside in Akron Ohio and am pursuing my passion through teaching yoga and Zumba. I have been a licensed instructor for Zumba for 2 years and have been teaching for over a year now. Also I have been certified and teaching yoga for over a year. I found Zumba when I was 16 years old. I took classes every week and always had a blast! I love to dance and workout, so it was the perfect. In 2014 I decided to get my license. I finally started teach in 2015, and now teach 4 classes a week! With yoga I found the practice in 2014. During this time I was in college, majoring in something I was not passionate for at all. I was also working in a cubicle at a call center. I lacked a lot of motivation and soon came to the conclusion that college or my major were not for me. Left with no clue with that I was going to do next, I had a lot more free time on my hands. That's when I took my first yoga class at the YMCA I work at. Instantly I fell in love. I felt alive and more calm, things started making more sense. As time went on I continued getting deeper into my practice. I finally made the best decision of my life and that was to get my 200 hour yoga certification. I learned so much about not just yoga but about myself. This love for yoga made me love myself. Which was always a challenge in the past. It made me love my body and express myself in so many ways. I got deeper into meditation which reduced my stress and allowed myself to live in the present moment. I was no longer worrying about the past or future. It truly changed my life, and taught me to live life to the fullest. After I finished my teacher training I left my job at the call center, and went on to become a full time instructor. I now teach 7 yoga classes a week, and altogether in teaching 13 classes including Zumba. I couldn't be happier! My goal with this passion of mine is to impact a community and to share my teachings with the world. "If you feel there's more to life than this, discover it"
