After the initial kick off of the Let’s Move Campaign students at the Jacksonville Job Corps Center have taken the healthy and active lifestyles initiative to heart. Every Wednesday students meet in the gymnasium to participate in an hour long zumba class. Other students go to the weight room to work on structured fitness routines.
Students also organized running groups as part of their fitness training. After dinner student groups get together and run several miles 2-3 times per week. The students stated they wanted to be active participants in the fight against heart disease, high blood pressure and other illnesses.
