You asked for it! We heard you! Let’s get together again to move our bodies for health and wellness as we head into the holidays!

Since black women disproportionately die of breast cancer compared to other groups, we must continue to raise awareness and bring attention to breast cancer in our community.
Wear your pink shirts and black workout pants and be ready for a great time of fellowship and fun with Zumba by Gracie. This class is for all fitness levels and all ages. Light refreshments and informational resources will be provided. Get your ticket here.
All are welcome. Can’t wait to see you there!
