Early on Saturday morning, Tanya and her peers worked up a sweat with body weight exercises and zumba dances.
“This is a free bootcamp for any community members who want to join,” says Tanya.
“I started out with selling weight-loss products but felt I needed to help people with fun exercises after my friend did something similar in another town.
“I like to help people and going to the gym doesn’t feel the same.”
Tanya explains that she does it for the well-being of the community and it is not compulsory to buy any of her products to join the group.
