Or that nearly one in three children is overweight or obese. Everywhere there’s a renewed interest in cooking and where our food comes from.

I joined fit class at TSMA in 2014 to help me lose weight and help me with the RA diagnosis that ravaged my body.

I had a huge support system from day 1.

When I’m at TSMA I’m surrounded by family. They make everyone of all ages feel welcome!

Coach Jackson and his team, encouraged me to change my eating habits and become the healthiest version of myself.

I attend 3 classes a week and will continue to move forward with a healthier lifestyle.
