EAST STROUDSBURG, MONROE COUNTY (WBRE/WYOU) — The dream of rail service from NEPA to the Big Apple is finally gaining traction, and Tuesday night, a rally of sorts to celebrate recent progress and the projected revenue the rail line could bring to our area. The Passenger Rail has been chosen to receive federal funding, just another step toward being a train ride away from the Big Apple. Many locals were at the celebration at Kalahari Resorts and Conventions this evening and are excited for the future. After decades of designing a region-wide rail service to the big apple, federal, state, and local officials rallied on tuesday as they put the wheels in motion. "The people of northeastern Pennsylvania deserve this. They deserve to have the kind of travel amenities that other places in this country already have," Representative Matt Cartwright.

It’s a little less intense, but you still get the same benefits of Zumba in a high-toned upper body workout while “dancing” in your seat. The design of the class uses easy to follow choreography that focuses on balance, range of motion and coordination while conditioning the cardiovascular and muscular systems.
