WACO, Texas — TurnUp Waco is the first of its kind in Waco, offering a safe space for everyone, while focusing on women's liberation, healing and empowerment.
Leaders at the dance fitness studio said they want people to create lots of movement and "come as they are."
Hope Mustakim, the owner of TurnUp Waco officially opened the studio on Jan. 1, as a way to bring a new and fresh perspective to working out.
"We want people to be their whole selves and be as loud as they want to be," Mustakim said.
The hip-hop style dance classes involve movements you can follow along to or make your own.
