Healthy eating is always a good thing, and eating smaller portions will help curb the intake of calories. Of course exercise is an important key to living a healthy lifestyle, so The Unity in the Community Organization encourages you to join in free Zumba classes, to help burn off these extra calories.

Felicia Hipps and Anya Huneycutt, are certified instructors and lead these classes each week. Classes are held each Thursday at 6:30 p.m. at the Zion Grove Church, 5620 Pea Ridge Rd. Mill Spring, and at the Roseland Center, 56 Peake St. Tryon at 7:30 p.m. each Thursday.
