Strap on those leg warmers and get ready to break the glass ceiling because we are going back to the 80s and doing a deep dive into the history of Jazzercise!
Learn about the Patron Saint of Sweat, Judi Sheppard Missett, who not only broke the exercise glass ceiling but built it through sweat, tears, and a funky beat.
Rob gives Ray a lesson in the history of female exercise including how women were encouraged not to sweat, the retroactive philosophies of Elizabeth Arden and Helena Rubinstein, forgotten “fitness” coach Debbie Drake, the feminist manifesto that built Jazzercise, the franchised exercise program, and why you should bow down to Judi the next time you do Soul Cycle, Barry’s Boot Camp, or Orange Theory.
