This recognition enlightens us and deepens our knowledge of his teachings.

Because I love my community\, I wanted to bring something positive to encourage women to focus on their health and well-being. I noticed many sisters cannot participate in gyms or sports due to privacy concerns or lack of time. This inspired me to become a professional Zumba instructor to offer something new and beneficial. Alhamdulilah\, through our Muslim community\, I was able to provide this class in a private and comfortable environment that meets our needs. \nPlease join me\, and let’s move\, laugh\, and grow stronger together\, Insha’Allah! \nQuestions? events@mcceastbay.org
