Gita Rash

People refer to me as the “energizer Bunny.” I am known for motivating people to get up and move. I am a fitness instructor, teaching at Northampton Community College, Pocono Mountain Fitness, 209 Fit, and Reach for the stars dance studio. My classes reflect an international flair acquired from having lived on three continents, Asia, Europe and North America. Dancing is one of my passions. My foray into Latin dancing began while living in Europe where I studied it for three years. I love to workout in a group environment and have fun while burning calories. At Pocono Mountain Fitness I teach Zumba, a Latin-inspired Dance-fitness class that incorporates Latin and international music and dance movements which create a dynamic, exciting and effective fitness system. Zumba integrates some of the basic priciples of aerobic, interval and resistance training to maximize caloric output, cardiovascular benefits and total body toning. Zumba ‘s passionate and explosive Latin and international music rhythms speak for themselves as they naturally motivate participants during class, which makes them want to return again and again ! Some of the other courses I teach are Step Aerobics, Hi- Lo aerobics, Boot Camp and Stretching. My classes comprise of people in a wide age group.
