Hundreds Step Out for Day of Dance Event

Six hundred local women came together to “dance their health” out at the third annual Day of Dance. Zumba, line dancing and “movin’ and groovin’ dance classes were just a few of the offerings at the free event held at Washington Township Recreation Center on February 28.

When participants weren’t shaking to the beat, they enjoyed free make-up refreshers from Macy’s, healthy refreshments including a chocolate fountain with fresh fruit dippers, as well as several health and wellness educational booths. Those who visited the three cardiac awareness tables were treated to a five-minute chair massage on a first-come, first-serve basis. Other popular offerings were the body mass index and nutrition education tables provided by the Community Wellness team.

This annual Kettering Medical Center event is part of the Spirit of Women celebration which features healthy and fun events for women throughout the year.

The next Spirit of Women event is Girls Day Out in October – watch for more updates about date, time and location! Last year, this event was hosted at Sycamore Medical Center with many offerings including pampering paraffin hand wax treatments, breast health information and gifts, a humorist speaker, skin cancer screenings and much more.
