CrossFit Oconee is the best place to workout and develop a new lifestyle of fitness. The staff and trainers are all there to support each person! Doing a WOD (Workout of the Day) is like no other, once you complete it then you know that its a full body workout 100% of the time. CrossFit Oconee gives you that family feel, as they are there to help each step of the way. Before you know it, you will be hooked on doing a WOD ! At CrossFit Oconee you get everything you need to make a new fitness lifestyle and improve yourself not only on the outside but on the inside too !

Oconee Jazzercise. We have more than 40 classes a week, and each class is a different combination of cardio fitness (via fun dancing that burns up to 600 calories in an hour), strength, stretching, and balance. If you go as often as I do (almost once a day), it costs less than 2 dollars a class. The classes are very full, and contain every type of person (female, male, overweight, thin, teenager, senior citizen, of every religion) so everyone feels welcome and comfortable. And it's so much fun! I have tried every type of workout, and this is the best. There is child care at many classes, too.

Jazzercise is the best work-out there is: cardio, strength, AND stretch! Not to mention the work-out your face and abs get from smiling and laughing so much (yes, WHILE you're working out!)! The instructors are beyond wonderful and motivating, and the location is super convenient. No comparison - love love love Jazzercise!!

Have to say Jazzercise! Haven't tried the others, but jazz is incredible and gets credit for whipping me into good enough shape to win a swimsuit competition back in 2008 (at the tender age of 36...ha ha) Still doing it now and loving it more than ever!!
