Iliana “Illy” Stoilova, Director of Palm Harbor’s X-Force Body, is one of 10 celebrity dancers competing in this year’s “Tampa Bay’s Dancing With the Stars” to benefit area non-profits. X-Force Body is also a $5,000 sponsor of the event: http://dancingforcharity.com/sponsors
The event will raise funds for HUG (Help Us Gather), Julie Weintraub’s Hands Across the Bay, Troop Rewards, Heroes of the St. Petersburg Police and Fire, Pepin Academy, and Honor Flight of West Central Florida.
“For X-Force Body, the competition is about much more than dancing. It’s about giving back to the community,” Stoilova says. “We see a parallel between the strength, confidence, and health our program offers to participants and the vital services these non-profit organizations provide. We’re very glad to be in a position to help.”
