Jazzercise in Shape Magazine— March 2011 Q. Recently I've been taking Jazzercise classes, but they've been around forever. Am I really getting a good workout? A. Great big Yes! The program may have started in 1969, but Jazzercise continues to be a body transformer. "Dancing is a fabulous fat burner-it torches up to 8 calories a minute studies show and it challenges the brain too says SHAPE fitness director Jeanine Detz, who loves the easy-to-learn Jazzercise routines. "Even if you're not a dancer, you can quickly pick up the steps." The hour long class includes a warm-up, at least 30 minutes of cardio, strength and flexibility moves, and a cool down. Plus, the workouts have evolved over the years. "We've incorporated everything from Latin Dance and kickboxing to Pilates and weight training, " says Judi Sheppard Missett, founder and CEO of Jazzercise, Inc. "And every class is different with new choreography and music, so you and your muscles never have a chance to get bored.
