Ingredients

The Jazzercise program only requires their DVD or enrollment in their Jazzercise program. No weights or additional devices are needed.

Product Features

Jazzercise rips many of their components from popular exercise routines, such as kickboxing and Pilates. They also integrate moves from yoga, and for an interesting kick, hip hop. The main issue with these exercises is that it may take a while for first time “Jazzercisers” to learn, and they even address this issue on their website. Otherwise, it does appear all of their exercises target each muscle group appropriately, and it does have documented effects on all core muscle groups.

Jazzercise also prescribes dieters follow a sensible diet while doing their program to see better results. Jazzercise does not promise to provide any dietary results, but they do claim dieters will experience better stamina, increased strength, and decreased fat distribution after doing their program. Testimonials seem to attest to all of these claims, but the results seemed to vary from person to person. No extreme weight loss was noted in any testimonials.

Overall, Jazzercise may be a new approach to exercise for those seeking a new exercise routine.
