Working out in a classroom setting isn’t for everybody. It does come with the benefit of working out with others, developing relationships and even having a sense of accountability. Jazzercise is a workout that takes place in a group classroom setting and has been around for years. You can burn lots of calories and get yourself into the shape you desire. The exercises are done to upbeat and current music and DVDs are available for those that cannot make it to class or don’t have one in their area.
One of the "cons" listed above is incorrect. Jazzercise is definitely NOT limited only to women. We have men in our classes and some locations have male instructors! Jazzercise is great for anyone who likes to have fun while working out and is simple to pick up. You just "follow the leader"; you don't have to memorize any steps or movements!
