Meet & Greet with the City Gym Boys at the Liberty, Unity, Strength Festival; Sunday, May 25, 2008 12 pm - 6pm Francis Field 2425 N St, NW Washington, DC

City Gym Boys is an elite team of natural bodybuilders from the inner city dedicated to mentoring young men and women on the lifelong benefits of fitness and exercise.

City Gym Boys was founded in 1997 by owner Charles La Salle to reach young men and women in the New York City area. "Our mission is to help eliminate the onset of obesity, particularly among African-Americans and Latino's in the inner city, by getting teens hooked on working out. If we can get 15 to 23 year olds to make fitness a habit, then we are on our way to reducing diabetes and heart disease", says La Salle, who is natural bodybuilder and personal trainer.

The City Gym Boys are proof of how dedication, patience and hard work can change one's body, mind and life. These positive role models are from different cultural backgrounds including: African-American, Barbadian, Cuban, Dominican, Ghanaian, Jamaican, Panamanian, Puerto Rican, Trinidadian and Venezuelan but they all share a commitment to increasing awareness among today's youth about the lifelong benefits of being fit.

The City Gym Boys have appeared on Rap City- Da Basement, 106 & Park and other BET programs. They have also appeared on Japanese T.V.- New York Style and other T.V. Networks. They have been on College Tours throughout the United States giving lectures and demonstrations. These athletes have also appeared in various magazines and newspapers such as: The New York Times, Vibe, Natural Bodybuilding, Honey, Men's Workout, Today's Black Woman, Young and Modern, Flex and the Atlanta Journal- Constitution.
