Mami Andrew instructs a mixed-level yoga class August 2 at Gunners Fitness Center on Camp Foster. The class is one of many organized by Marine Corps Community Services Okinawa’s Semper Fit program, which recently earned the Blue-H Surgeon General’s Health Promotion and Wellness gold star award for the third consecutive year. The award committee selects programs within the Navy and Marine Corps demonstrating exceptional health and wellness standards year-round. “Health is more than strength training,” said Andrew. “We teach people how to build their minds, spirits and bodies, so that they can have more than just strong muscles.” Andrew is a yoga instructor with MCCS Okinawa. - Mami Andrew instructs a mixed-level yoga class August 2 at Gunners Fitness Center on Camp Foster.
