"You can't store physical fitness, so you've got to work activity into every week of your life." - Jacki Sorensen

Fan letter to Jacki from Australia
by The St. Ives Class in Sydney

Webmaster's note: The following is an unsolicited letter to Jacki Sorensen received on the SuperSite from Eve Park on behalf of the St. Ives class in Sydney, Australia. We requested permission to publish this heartfelt letter of appreciation because it beautifully expresses how the friendships that develop in Jacki's classes create a myriad of positive benefits that are just as important as the benefits of exercise. The exercise and choreography initially bring us to class, but the friendships are the delicious (and calorie-free!) icing. A big THANK YOU to all the members of Janet Nixon's St. Ives class for taking the time to send a letter of appreciation. And thanks go out to Janet Nixon, who has been a good friend and supporter of Jacki's Aerobic Programs SuperSite for many years.

Hi Jacki!

This is a fan letter from your St. Ives class in Sydney, Australia.

A group of us was talking after class about the benefits we had each derived from our aerobic dancing class & while we DO say thank you to our wonderful teacher, Janet Nixon, none of us had ever thanked YOU.

In our class we have an age range from 30 something to 70 something. Some of us have been dancing for more than 20 years (we danced with you in person in 1989) & some are new to the program but we are all having fun while working hard.

I don't know if our class is typical but as well as dancing together we have supported each other through a kidney transplant, breast cancer treatments, back and knee operations, divorces, deaths in the family etc. and also shared in the joy of births, marriages, birthdays etc.... We would never have met each other and become friends if it were not for your program.

We have always had great teachers but our current teacher (who has been with us for ten years) is a star - she is really special.

Thank you again for the program. Perhaps you'll come and visit our class when you are next in Australia.
