Since I’ve been part of 30 Minutes of Everything, my lower back has never been better. I’m a pretty athletic person and when my back was bad I missed running. Since I’ve been in this class, I can run four miles twice a week! These classes that have made my whole body so much stronger! Thank you so much Tanya for all you do!
