Jazzercise of Watsonville

To say this place changed my life forever is an understatement. Thanks to this place I have life.
We all know in order to live we need to eat, sleep, drink, and exercise. For a third of my life, I did the first three and that was it. I thought I was always going to be a heavy girl. I thought the «baby weight» would be with me forever, even though my babies weren’t babies anymore. (My oldest is practically a teenager!) Than I met Wauhillau. She was my friend first. Our kids were at the same school. I went to school with her husband. She said she taught this class, offered me to come for free. I stood at the way back. The music was fun, the moves were funky, and before I knew it I was sweating. I WAS HAVING FUN AND I WAS EXERCISING??? SAY WHAT? It clicked. I was hooked.
It helps that Wauhillau, Amanda, and Erin are TERRIFIC INSTRUCTORS. They are seriously the best. And they each have their own unique style of teaching. Amanda is so graceful, like a dancer. She makes everything look so darn easy and she hardly breaks a sweat. Erin is so fun and cheerful. She has the task of waking everyone up on Mondays; everyone is still tired from the weekend. She always does this with exuberance and a bouncy smile. And Wauhillau, the franchise owner, is the General! She is the Queen! She doesn’t stop. She will pick you up if she has to– darn it! YOU WILL KEEP GOING! AND YOU WILL LOVE IT! There is a real sense of belonging here. And I’m not saying this just because Wauhillau is a dear friend. You just need to take a class and you will see. You will find all ages, all sizes here. Take a class. Trust me.
Classes happen six days a week Monday through Saturday, mornings, afternoons and evenings. There is regular Jazzercise, Light Jazzercise, and Strength Training. There are ALWAYS SPECIALS GOING ON. You only need to check the
website.
It occurred to me that the key to exercise is the same with everything else. YOU DO WHAT YOU LOVE. You don’t eat what doesn’t taste good? When I found out that I really enjoy Jazzercise then that was it. As long as these hips can move, they will.
