JAZZERCISE TO TAKE PART IN NATIONAL DANCE DAY

([GREENFIELD, WI]) -- Local Jazzercisers will take part in a National Dance Day event on Saturday, July 31st from 10:30am until 12:00pm at the Greenfield Jazzercise Fitness Center, located at 4168 S. 108th Street. National Dance Day is a grassroots initiative, started by the executive producer of “So You Think You Can Dance,” that encourages the nation, young and old, to move. Congress is in the process of passing a bill to officially recognize National Dance Day every year throughout the country in an effort to emphasize the importance of dance and the effect it has on health and wellness.

At the event – open to the general public – instructors from Greenfield Jazzercise Fitness Center will lead a hip-hop routine choreographed specifically for National Dance Day by two professional choreographers often featured on the show “So You Think You Can Dance,” Tabitha and Napoleon. The entry fee for the event is $10 before July 21st and $15 thereafter. The event will also feature a charity raffle with prizes donated by various local businesses. Proceeds from the event and raffle will benefit the Dizzy Feet Foundation, an organization founded in 2009 to increase access to dance education for underprivileged children in the United States.
