Did you know that September is National Childhood Obesity Awareness Month? To help raise awareness and get kids moving, My Gym Yorba Linda has partnered with Zumba to help fight the epidemic. On Saturday, September you’re invited to the My Gym Fit and Fun Party! During this family fun event, you’ll be able to enjoy award-winning fitness programs and Zumba Kids/Kids Jr. Fitness Classes.
