'Pay it forward' program offers free personal fitness training | News

WRIGHTSVILLE BEACH, NC (WECT)- 'Paying it forward,' is a phrase used to describe the domino effect one good deed can have. Urban Fitness, a personal training facility is working to pass on the gift of a healthy and fit lifestyle by offering free classes through October.

No memberships are required and each class is different-- ranging from kickboxing to swinging in the air in 'hammocks' training. Each trainer has an extensive background in fitness and wellness, offering the same intensity and attention in group classes as they would in one-on-one sessions.

"It really is a network of local talent and professionals in fitness here in Wilmington," said Urban Fitness Owner Karon Tunis. "It's incredible how all these resources are able to come together under Urban Fitness in order to offer classes to the community that would normally cost them a lot of money."

Details such as class times and dates can be found on the Urban Fitness website and Facebook page.
