Jazzercise

I went here for a balboa class. The instructors were nice and informative. The facility is beautiful. The floor here are a dancer’s dream. I can glide across the floor with minimal effort. Not to slick so you wil fall and hurt yourself. smooth enough to do any amount of turns without damaging you knees and ankles. The floor was very clean and well maintained. The owners of the studio have to take pride in their space. The balboa community is a very open comuunity and welcoming. It was my first time dancing balboa and I was terrible. Their were patient and kind and encourging. I will definetly be back.

I’m going to admit that I was reluctant about joining Jazzercise even though fellow Unilocaler Cecille R had spoken so highly of it. Previously I had been going to Barre (which I still love) but it’s very expensive and the good locations are all the way in Winter Park. I love jogging in the park but this is Florida and what do you do when it starts to pour the minute you set foot out of work?
That’s when I decided to give Jazzercise a try. Sign up was quick and easy, everyone was very friendly and just made me feel welcome which is a huge factor in helping a newbie decide: «Should I stay or should I go?»
They provide most materials except the floor mats, you have to bring your own.
A big concern for me was getting a good workout. I’m a foodie, I need to sweat off the calories from eating that extra piece of chocolate hazelnut, or that slice of pizza I shouldn’t have had, but I can assure you; you will get a good work out, and if you’re feeling energetic you can take back to back classes. The routines are for the most part easy to keep up with, it also depends on the instructor’s pace and how they explain the movements but overall you can catch on quickly.
They do community events and activities and I think that’s huge as it helps keep everyone motivated. These aren’t just people you work out with, they soon become friends and family.

This is a really nice, cozy studio. I came here with a Groupon and although I was a little late in using it they honored it anyway, with a smile. They had mats, weights, bands, stability balls, and a changing room. I met three of the instructions who were very nice and went out of their way to make sure I felt at ease. I stayed for a class where the instructor was teaching for the very first time. She was easy to follow and made the class fun. I’m generally someone who prefers to exercise on my own but every so often I like to go to a class and I am very happy I came here.
