| For Body and Soul, Women 'Jumping for Joy' | ||

Classes, at $44 for 8 weeks, are
held mornings and evenings at churches in Palmyra, Hummelstown, Lebanon
and Camp Hill. One of the newest Jump for Joy programs, the first on the
West Shore, was started at Camp Hill Presbyterian Church, with
instructor Becky Michaelian. “We’re getting a good response,” she says.
“You don’t have to belong to a church to join. We have half church
members, half non-church members in the group.”
Michaelian says the classes are “user-friendly. It’s not a hymn sing, but it’s not killer aerobics either. You don’t have to be Denise Austin to join in. You can gauge the activity to your own level. If it’s too intense for a time, you can just march in place.” She also likes the program’s consistency. “Lynn Kuhn selects the music and makes up the routines.” Michaelian says. “She makes a video for the instructors. If you miss a session at one place, all the instructors are doing the same routines, so you can pick up a class at another location.” The women are friendly and enjoy one another’s company, she says. |
An ardent exerciser, Andrews says
the classes keep her young. “I love the way it makes me feel,” she says.
“It makes you sleep well, and wakes you up in the morning. I could walk,
but I prefer the group activity. I like the music and dance. I like to
keep in shape." Joyce Lochinger, 39, and Vicki Smith, 50, both of
Palmyra, attend sessions at East Shore locations, and they’re just as
enthused as Andrews.
Smith, who goes to classes at Trinity United Church of Christ, Palmyra, says that if she’s in a bad mood going in, she’ll feel better going out. “I do aerobics for a better frame of mind,” Smith says, “and I’ve made lots of Christian friends. It’s a great group; people feel comfortable. If anyone has a problem, we pray for them.” Lochinger, who attends classes at Gravel Hill United Methodist, Palmyra, appreciates the contemporary Christian music, including rap, with meaningful words, messages and rhythms. “We do an energetic aerobic routine,” Lochinger says. “We do the exercise for our bodies, but we also have the devotions, so it’s good spiritually, too.” |
