Giving Back to the Community

Over the years, Jazzercise has acted upon Judi's philosophy of "giving back to the community." Judi and her legion of instructors have raised nearly $25 million for a wide range of charities by leading special large-scale workout classes, performances at major sporting events, and local benefits. Other efforts include Kids Get Fit, a free workout program to help school districts promote fitness as a way of life to children, and the CyberStretch Giveaway Program, a free computer safety software program to help reduce repetitive stress injuries.

Jazzercise Instructors
Jazzercise was the first aerobic exercise organization to train and certify instructors. In the intensive training workshops, instructors learn exercise physiology, human anatomy, and dance/exercise technique. Instructors also learn to advise participants on exercise modifications, pacing, and safety.

All Jazzercise instructors are franchisees. Instructors receive more than 25 dance-fitness routines choreographed to the latest music by Judi Sheppard Missett every 10 weeks, continuing education, marketing, and administrative support.
