In Dallas the company will debut new choreography which will then be distributed to instructors worldwide. “We are excited to bring together more than 1,800 of our customers and instructors for two days of fitness, fun and giving back in the vibrant city of Dallas,” said Judi Sheppard Missett, Jazzercise Founder and CEO. “At the event we will make our muscle matter by taking the Plank It Off Challenge.
