Edgewater Health is celebrating National Health Center Week with a variety of healthy activities and conversations under the umbrella of its “Mind, Body and Spirit” series.
The week kicked off with a
60-Minute Circuit Session with Tiffany Blakemore, owner of Vitamin T Fitness. An enthusiastic group of community members stopped by the studio for the free workout session with Blakemore, which included cycling (spin), chair exercises and trampoline.

Woodson has lost more than 40 pounds and continues to inspire others to embrace a healthy lifestyle.
