To say that Jazzercise has changed my life would be an understatement. I feel Jazzercise has given me my life back, given me a new life, and has also saved my life. In December of 2009 my mother gave me the Jazzercise 12 Days of Fitness. At the time I was wearing a tight size 14 pants, smoking almost a pack of cigarettes a day, and had high blood pressure. Now, in a little over a year, I've lost 35 pounds, and am still losing. I'm a non-smoker. My blood pressure is regulated, and I'm a certified Jazzercise instructor! I knew Jazzercise was worth it. I knew Jazzercise was different and something that I wanted to be a part of. Smoking is known as one of the hardest addictions to overcome, but cigarettes have nothing on my Jazzercise addiction! I am a true Jazzercise junkie and I cannot wait to motivate others to make changes.
