Flint Fit Fest
Harambee Wellness is hosting a day dedicated to fitness and health with the first Flint Fit Fest on Jan. 25 at the Flint Farmer’s Market.
The Flint Fit Fest will kick off at 9 a.m. with different fitness demonstrations until 1 p.m., including Zumba, extreme hip-hop, yoga, belly dancing and hustle aerobics. There will also be a Zumbini demonstration, which is an exercise class for babies, toddlers and their caregiver.
“I wanted a way for people to test-drive exercise,” said Marquita Adams, found of Harambee Wellness. “You’re more inclined to stick with a form of exercise when you’re exposed to different types, and you’re more willing to try it out if you see it in action.”
Attendees will also have the chance to watch one of two cooking demonstrations in the Farmer’s Market demonstration kitchen. One demonstrator will teach people how to cook a healthy stir-fry meal, while the other will focus on healthy meal prepping.
Local independent fitness instructors and local gyms will also be there to connect with people and tell them more about the fitness opportunities in their community, Adams said. Crim Fitness Foundation, Complete Runner and The Gym For Her are just a few of the vendors that will be there.
All aspects of the event are free, family friendly and all levels of fitness abilities are welcome. To learn more, check out the event’s Facebook page.
