A brand-new business in Hastings is combining exercise and art.

"The Fitness Gallery" fuses art with all sorts of exercises.

Classes include yoga, Pilates and African dance in a studio surrounded by paintings.

Several artists will be featured each year, and the owner says she's excited to offer this unique concept.

"I decided I wanted to take it to Hastings. My children go to school here, I live here now, I love this community. It's a great community and I just thought, you know they need something like this," says owner Jodi De Crenza.
