Jazzyobics is a total fitness program based on jazz dance and accepted principles of exercise physiology with its emphasis on quality and safety. It concentrates on flexibility, balance, posture, coordination, stamina, muscle tone, cardiovascular and metabolic improvement. Suzy always urges her students to go at their own pace; to listen to their bodies and to work only as hard as their own physical condition dictates. Emotional fitness is stressed as well as physical fitness. The 90 minute class is built around warm-up, cardiovascular work and cool down periods. An average of 20 routines set to music ranging from rock to ragtime comprise each class. A 5 to 10 minute warm-up, 30 minute aerobic section with 15 minutes of cooldown ( using light weights for the upper body) to the floor. The 20 minutes of floor routines consist of contraction exercise for your gluteals (butt), stomach, quadriceps (front of thigh), inside & outside thigh, and finally a 5 minute stretch for your body at the end. The class style is based on simple jazz dance moves...incorporating hip hop, taebo, line dances, zumba and some ballet warm-up movements. New routines are introduced by Suzy every 8 weeks for variety. Students are encouraged to request songs to use in the choreography of new routines. The easy, follow-the-leader teaching technique makes a new routine fun to do and simple to follow. website:http://jazzyobics.com Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/pages/Jazzyobics/
