L.A. Soul Steppers Walking Group Gets Healthier One Lap at a Time

It’s 6:00 a.m. on the second Tuesday of the month and more than 30 men and women in matching grey shirts are buzzing around the entrance of a large department store inside Baldwin Hills Crenshaw Plaza. This group of individuals aged 50-plus hasn’t arrived early for a holiday sale; they are members of AARP’s L.A. Soul Steppers walking group and they are there to get their walk on.
