A Fitness Experience for the Girls

It’s a fitness experience for the girls.

An experience that includes high energy, laughter and a whole lotta sweat. After months of virtual fitness classes, Sweat Like a Girl in Nazareth, is finally back open to women of all ages.

"I think, for me, I had worked in fitness centers for many years, and I really enjoyed the connection that I had with other women," says Heather Gidusko, owner of Sweat Like A Girl.

"I also wanted to step away from the corporate fitness centers, because I felt like the members were more of a number as opposed to a person, so I wanted to open a smaller boutique style studio just for women to really cater to what women need and also just to create an amazing community where we can bond as women."

Once the pandemic forced businesses to shut down in March, Gidusko says she was overwhelmed and unsure of what to do. So she chose to do workouts from home on Facebook live, for free, because she says she knew women, including herself, were struggling.

"So if I could offer something in the form of fitness and happiness to somebody, then I knew that my heart was in the right place and my passion would help somebody else."

Now that Northampton County is in the green, Sweat Like A Girl is finally back in session.
