I LOVED my jazzercise days.
I covered the business office in Austin, TX for 2 years.
Best job ever 🌺
I did a class 5 days a week.

Still relevant to current fitness customers. Not many exercise programs have survived the test of time. I still love Jazzercise!

I loved Jazzercize! It was so much fun, 5he music was great and we saw how great it felt to sweat and it was so much fun and very social!

I remember Judi and she was great but she needs to trust her daughter and grand daughter. They know what they are doing and dance styles have changed........It's not 1984 anymore.

Sometimes it gets to be full of such woke old ladies, it is unbearable.

Nobody shoved you into a roomful of them and locked the door. Scroll on, baby.
