‘It’s a Family Affair’ | A new mother-daughter fitness facility finds its home in East Point
Dynamic Duo Fitness seeks to encourage healthy living in the city of East Point and beyond for all generations.
East Point, Ga. — ‘Strong and sexy at any age!"
This emphatic statement along with several other slogans of affirmation will be what anyone who visits the family-owned workout facility, Dynamic Duo Fitness.
Tucked behind the rear-side of The Wagon Works complex at Suite 107 on 2801 RN Martin St., East Point’s newest fitness facility just celebrated a ribbon-cutting a couple of weeks ago.
Owned & operated by mother/daughter combo, Rhonda ‘Rho’ Shelton (mother) and Lakeisha Varner (daughter), this ‘dynamic duo’ selected Tri-Cities to open their gym as the go-to resource for health and wellness for the community and families of East Point and beyond.
“It was through fitness that we discovered our power. It was through that that I discovered my personal power, I discovered that I was actually strong and that is what helped to catapult me forward,” Varner tells Vox Pop ATL.
The mother/daughter team also serves as the facility’s fitness instructors. Dynamic Duo Fitness’ mission is to provide overall physical health, including mental health and nutritional wellness through a comprehensive fitness experience.
Both longtime fitness advocates, Shelton & Varner originally hail from the Northeast, specifically New York City, and have called the Southside their home for nearly the past twenty years.
‘We want to be a one-stop-shop in East Point for health and wellness,” emphasizes Shelton.
‘We want to extend that to our community to our people who are suffering from diseases and illnesses that can easily die are easily alleviated with a healthy diet and some fitness classes.”
The newly-opened facility offers a wide array of fitness classes including but not limited to; cardio kickboxing, Zumba, Xtreme hip-hop, and others each designed to accommodate classes of every fitness level, in-person or virtually.
Dynamic Duo Fitness also provides meal prep recommendations as well as other forms of nutritional guidance for individuals or families seeking to achieve their fitness goals.
The ribbon-cutting event for Dynamic Duo Fitness featured music, light hors d'oeuvres for attendees, as well as raffle prizes, and a tour of the facilities.
When asked which superhero ‘dynamic duo’ they would see themselves as?
Rho and Lakeisha told Vox Pop ATL, ‘The Wonder Twins,’ the superpowered tag team whose abilities are activated in the presence of one another.
Sounds like the perfect answer to me.
