MIDDLETOWN – After running classes since September while continuing to remodel Armstrong Hall, Lake County Jazzercise will celebrate its official grand opening on Thursday, Jan. 21, beginning at 5:30 p.m.


The celebration will feature a special sign-up price of only $20 per month with a six month auto-pay registration.


A one-time joining fee of $40 will complete your registration and allow you unlimited access to all of the 23 classes held weekly at Armstrong Hall, 15642 Armstrong Street in Middletown. The hall is two blocks behind the U.S. Post Office.


Armstrong Hall was built originally as a church in 1947. After months of renovation, it now features a sprung wood floor to cushion Jazzercisers’ joints during their workouts, climate control with central heat and air conditioning, a premium sound system, ceiling fans and on-site babysitting at selected classes.


The grand opening will include introductions and will honor the many Lake County businesses that contributed to the reconstruction.


Door prizes by area businesses including Amazing Bath by Gigi, Star Gardens, Arlene Grimes’ Cookie Lee Jewelry, Bullion Creek Winery and Jazzercise will be awarded. Refreshments from Chic Le Chef, wine from Beaver Creek Vineyard and a short Jazzercise demonstration will round out the evening’s festivities.


“I would like to thank the Lake County businesses that made this Jazzercise Fitness Center possible. It was a pleasure working with Mendo Mill, Tri-Counties Bank, Turner Insulation, Pure Air Heating and Cooling, and Ric Johnson, handyman extraordinaire,” said center owner, Beth Rudiger. “The center turned out beautifully. My fellow instructors, Mary-Grace McMahon, Reikor Deacon, Marla Drake, Amanda Boman and I love teaching Jazzercise in this space!”

A 60-minute Jazzercise class includes a warmup, high-energy aerobic routines to current music, muscle-toning and a cool-down stretch segment. Jazzercise combines elements of dance, resistance training, Pilates, yoga, kickboxing and more to create programs for people of every age and fitness level.


Additionally, Lake County Jazzercise offers Jazzercise Lite, a 60-minute low impact class that pairs moderate aerobics with exercises that are designed to improve strength, balance, and flexibility.


“The easy-to-follow routines make Jazzercise Lite inviting to anyone new to exercise, and the aerobic portion of the workout can get the heart rate up without stressing the knees, legs and lower back,” said Rudiger. “The Jazzercise philosophy has always been that exercise is for everyone, and by using effective movements, jazz dance, and popular music, we continually strive to make it fun for participants, too.”
