The Jazzercise program was founded in 1969 by Judi Sheppard Missett, in Evanston, Illinois. Current headquarters for Jazzercise Inc are located in Carlsbad, California. Missett turned her love of jazz dance into a worldwide dance exercise phenomenon and with very little start up money. The workout program offers a fusion of jazz dance, resistance training, Pilates, yoga, and kickboxing movements. This international franchise business hosts a network of 7,500 instructors teaching more than 32,000 classes weekly in 32 countries. In 2007/2008 Jazzercise reported 93 Million in revenue for their best year ever and MSNBC in March 2009 placed Jazzercise in their top 5 list of proven franchises that provide growth opportunity.
