A Workout that Works for Knoxville's Working Women
Unless you are incredibly self motivated, it is difficult to start and maintain an exercise program on your own. Exercise DVDs get repetitive, our outdoor walks and runs get rained out, and with no accountability we can find way too many reasons to skip our workout "just for today". If you can find the right group exercise class - one that is fun to do, non-repetitive, with a knowledgeable instructor and friendly fellow students - it is so much easier to develop the exercise habit and stick with it long-term.
Have you tried Jazzercise lately? We've changed a lot since the 80s. The music is current. The moves are fun. Classes are NOT boring - your mind and body will be challenged just enough. No dance experience is needed, but don't be surprised if you pick up some great dance moves, even after only a few classes.
Sound Good? Come in and try a Free class at Campbell Station Jazzercise during the month of May. We are conveniently located just off the interstate at the Campbell Station Road exit. You can start at any time in any class, regardless of your current fitness level. No appointment is necessary - just show up and give it a try! We have a great special for May - no joining fee and no charge for May if you sign up for 6 months or 12 months of classes (a $70 savings). There are other options available too. If you have questions, just email us at csjazzercise@gmail.com or give us a call at 865-603-4923 (Ask for Michele).
6:00 AM (Monday through Friday). If you have some flexibility in your starting time for work, these classes are a great option as you can take your class early and then have the rest of your day free. Most report increased energy and productivity during the day. Reclaim your evenings by getting your workout in early.
6:00 PM (Monday through Thursday). We decided to start this class a little later than the 5:30 or 5:45 time slots you find at most gyms around here. The extra 15 minutes gives plenty of time to maneuver 5:00 traffic, get to class and get changed, and then get your groove on. When you leave, you will be so relaxed and stress free.
7:00 PM (Monday and Thursday). We realize that some ladies need a later start time. Most of our students in this time slot can go home, change clothes, grab a quick bite, and then come on to class. Combining these two classes with at least one of our five weekend offerings provides a really easy opportunity to get in 3 to 4 classes per week.

Campbell Station Jazzercise Student of the Week - Chris Lucheon
Q. Tell us a little about how you got started with running.
A. I started my adult racing in 2009 with a 10 miler. I had taken a long break from running. I ran high school track and then continued to run for "fun" in college. After college, I had an ankle surgery that sidelined me for many, many years. I have now run in 6 half marathons, a couple of 10 milers and one full marathon which is 26.2 miles in 2013. I ran my last half marathon in Indianapolis in November of 2014.
Q. When did you first begin Jazzercise?
A. I first started in 1993 after my second child was born. I continued until about 2000. Then I took a long break. I started back in 2010 after my kids had left home.
Q. What is your typical workout routine?
A. I attend Jazzercise classes four to five days a week. I run at least four days a week and I golf one or two times a week in the summer. Golf is exercise if you walk!!
Q. Which class do you usually attend?
A. 6AM woohoo!!!
Q. What do you like most about the 6AM classes?
A. Seeing the dedication of all the ladies, the time fits my schedule with work and other obligations, and of course my awesome teacher Teresa.
Q. What is your favorite Jazzercise routine?
A. It s hard to pick just one. For legs, I love Blow, for arms I like Sugar. Shake it Off and Delirious are a couple of my many recent favorites.
Q. What is it about Jazzercise that has kept you coming to classes for so long?
A. Variety, friends, music, and fun. It is good training for the whole body, including the mind. Our bodies and muscles adapt so we have to mix it up and Jazzercise does that.
Chris's final words capture what we all know so well. Chris says, "I exercise because I love it and it keeps me much more emotionally even. I also have a lot of bad genes so I know that it is essential for good health. Find something you love and stick with it!"
We are so proud of Chris and all of our amazing students. Check back into our blog each week to learn more about our fantastic Jazzercise Krew!
