Sarina Jain
America's first cross-cultural fitness superstar, the irrepressible Sarina Jain is the creator of the high-energy and non-stop fun Masala Bhangra Workout. Masala means spicy in Hindi and Bhangra is a traditional folk dance from the northern state of Punjab, India. Known as the Jane Fonda of India, Sarina's unique and effective cardiovascular workout allows people from all backgrounds to experience a taste of Bollywood by modernizing traditional Bhangra steps. A regular guest on NBC's Today Show and other major media, Sarina inspires even the most committed couch potato to get moving. The Masala Bhangra workout is taught throughout the United States by Serena and her trained instructors. Anyone can have a Bollywood workout at home with a Masala Bhangra DVD. Let's peek inside the Little Black Travel Diary of Sarina Jain!
My first memory of traveling is when my family and I went to India when we were little. I absolutely loved it because I was visiting my family and we had so much fun.
I never travel without a good book to read.
My favorite destination is oye! Too many!!!
The taste of hot fresh street food reminds me of Amritsar, Punjab India.
My favorite traveling companion is my sister. Even though we fight, we laugh so hard when we travel together. Traveling alone is fun. You learn a lot about yourself. However, I would rather travel with my sister or a partner.
I dream of visiting the Middle East. I want to go there to see how people live because they also have real lives as well and some of the most beautiful as well.
A film, book, or song that awakens my wanderlust is A Fine Line by Rohinton Mistry. My favorite traveling outfit is either my black dress or my white Nike jump suit.
My most unforgettable traveling experience was traveling to Spain on my own for 5 months. When I have been away from home for a long time, the thing I miss the most is the warmth my house has to offer.
If I could travel back in time, I would go to Rajasthan, back in the day, to meet the Queens and Kings of that time. I would want to meet the Rajas! My travel icon is: I love hearing about Angelina Jolie and her travel experiences. I want to join her in her adventures. My must have beauty product when traveling is Carmex lip balm. My words of travel wisdom are Go with the flow, explore different cultures and appreciate everything. PS. A few weeks ago The Black Dress Traveler got my Bollywood groove going at Sarina's Masala Bhangra Workout class at Alvin Ailey. It was simply amazing! Just picture 120 New Yorkers of all ages, sizes, and cultures doing a Bollywood dance off. Awesome!
