Local gym hopes to combat childhood obesity with kids' fitness classes

On certain days of the week, Fit365 isn't your typical gym. "I really just wanted to bring a program to the community that not only helped fight childhood obesity, which is on the rise right now greatly, but also to improve children's flexibility, endurance, strength, just overall health in general. So I decided to create the group fitness programs," explained Shannon Harris. Harris runs a kid's fitness class at Fit365 in New Port Richey. It's an opportunity for kids to be active, encouraged and confident.
