When breast cancer struck a family friend, Hoppers Crossing fitness instructor Melissa Molina decided to hold a party.
The 25-year-old is holding a Zumba ‘Party in Pink’, using the Latin-inspired dance-fitness routine to raise funds for breast cancer research.
“Our friend’s strength inspired me; she’s very positive,” said Ms Molina, whose background is Chilean.
She chose the South American fitness routine because, like her friend, it’s upbeat.
The Zumba party is from 11am this Saturday at 1/1 Graham Street, Hoppers Crossing. Call 0439 069 232.
