Bangkok--26 Sep--Ogilvy Public Relations
Jetts 24 Hour Fitness, a global 24-hour fitness group which has just celebrated their first-ever grand opening of 4 new clubs in Bangkok on the same day back in March, is introducing a new group exercise class called "SH'BAM". An up-and-coming physical exercise inspired by club dance moves accompanied with head-banging background music, SH'BAM usually takes place with a group of participants and expends an average of 500 kcal per session. This high-energy exercise format is also a fast way to reduce body fat and enhance bone density, leading to a leaner body, optimal weight composition and through-the-roof confidence. All Jetts 24 Hour Fitness members can join the class without paying any additional fee.
SH'BAM is a cardio-based workout which has been gaining popularity all over the world. SH'BAM choreography is heavily inspired by club dance and mixes a wide range of genres, including aerobic, jazz, hip-hop, funk, Latin and ballet, resulting in an upbeat fusion that's impossible to turn your eyes, ears and body away from. Jetts' SH'BAM class uses handcrafted, jam-packed playlists to hype and energize the participants throughout the session. The dance steps were deliberately choreographed to improve coordination, enhance agility and replace body fat with muscles while extending up to 500 kcal per a 30-45 minute session. In long term, SH'BAM can help diminish the risk of coronary artery disease (CAD) and effectively improve lower limb bone mass because it essentially gets the legs and butt working.
Mr. Dane Cantwell, Thailand Country Manager, Jetts 24 Hour Fitness, said, "Jetts 24 Hour Fitness is one of the few fitness providers in Thailand that offer an in-house SH'BAM class, with an average of 40 participants per session. Individuals are interested in trying SH'BAM because it doesn't require prior dancing experience, and that they feel they can join the class without feeling left behind. The degree of difficulty within a SH'BAM class is roughly divided into three levels, i.e. bobbing along the music, subtle moves, and pronounced motion, to which participants can choose to follow according to their ability. Jetts always discusses with the instructors to ensure that the choreography and playlist in each SH'BAM class yield maximum benefits to the participants. Here, everyone will feel like they are pulling off a performance on the dance floor with instructor as the host of the party."
Mr. Dane Cantwell continued, "Jetts' goals include promoting a healthy lifestyle among Thais and catering to health-conscious consumers who are looking for freedom to workout on their terms with various and innovative workout options. Apart from SH'BAM, Jetts also offers a range of Les Mills-certified classes, such as BODYPUMP, BODYCOMBAT and BODYBALANCE as well as Functional Training FX, TRX, Gym Ball,
Bun 24, Zumba, yoga and Pilates. These classes are available for all Jetts members on a weekly basis – with no extra cost required."
Sirirat "Noo-si" Ruangsri, Miss Thailand World 2010 and professional personality coach, one of the celebrities who attended SH'BAM class at Jetts 24 Hour Fitness, revealed, "Now is the time when we see women taking their health more seriously and stepping up their workout regime. Many of us attend group exercise classes like yoga, jazz dance and Pilates on a regular basis to maintain good physical and mental conditions while improving overall personality at the same time. Jetts' introduction of SH'BAM class is another great step in Thailand's fitness industry. As I am familiar with personality-related training for several years, I believe SH'BAM can efficiently boost confidence and address self-esteem issues usually encountered by women. With a routine that allows participants to loosen emotional and physical strains and move along with the professionally-crafted choreography, SH'BAM doesn't only change one's body, it builds their confidence from inside out. When a more toned body and self-confidence have been achieved, good personality will come out naturally. Not to mention that you can boast some of the moves learned during the class on the actual dance floor at parties later."
