Mangere Community kicking the kilo's with Town Centre Zumba
Three years ago, when Isitolo Lemoe showed up to an open Zumba class at his local shopping centre, he was unemployed and wheelchair bound. A Zumba class turned his life around, he said.
"That's why I love this group. They help me to walk again. I call this group - it's my family."
Every day for the past five years, about 100 people have showed up to a Zumba class at the Mangere town centre shopping mall for this fun daily dance jam - kicking up the fight against obesity and diabetes that so many of us are struggling with.
