Minister faces Junkanoo test

MINISTER of Youth, Sports and Culture Dr Danny Johnson took on a special fitness challenge to prepare for the annual Boxing Day Junkanoo Parade.

He joined Ultimate Fitness and Wellness Centre on Bay Street shortly after hearing testimonials and officially declaring the centre’s first annual expo open.

The expo marks the first anniversary of Ultimate Fitness, which is celebrating a steady growth in 2012.

Dr Johnson said that because of his portfolio, it is very important to him that he gives a good performance at junkanoo, so he will be challenging himself with the centre’s regimen, which includes aerobics, weight lifting, walking and running.

Fitness trainer Natasha Brown said she considers the centre as much more than just a place to work out. For her it is “a ministry”, and she concentrates on the particular needs of each individual while teaching the classes generally.

Dr Johnson wants people to take note of Ultimate Fitness’ motto: “The secret to good health lies in your daily routine”. He encouraged the public to learn about healthy eating and make exercise part of their weekly routine.
