GROUP FITNESS PASSION STORIES
“When the JCC says it is more than a gym, they mean it. With them, it isn’t just some tagline they use to boost their center. I have never felt more connected to community than when I walk through their doors. The group fitness classes have kept me on track when it comes to my fitness goals. Every day, I can find a class that suits my mood, whether I want to hit the weights hard, sweat like crazy from a plyometric workout, or just relax and work on my flexibility. There is something for everyone.” – Amber D.
