Susan Dobbs - Owner and Instructor
Hello! I am the owner of Westfield Jazzercise, which just celebrated 13 years in the community! I have Jazzercised over 20 years - 8 as a student and 13 as an instructor. I live in Westfield with my wonderful JazzerHusband - Todd and my 5 year old son, Will. We have two spoiled rotten dogs - Wiley, a cocker mix and Ashley, a greyhound. Jazzercise is my passion and it thrills me every day when I get to help women lead healthy lifestyles. |

Sandy Settle - Instructor
Hi! My name is Sandy Settle and I was certified as a jazzercise instructor in Columbus, Ohio in 2002. I was a student under Susan and various instructors in Ohio before that for close to 10 years. I teach the 8:15 classes mostly, and have thoroughly enjoyed the addition of this new time slot. Jazzercise is the best fitness program I have ever participated in. Between the fun dance moves and the always changing, very hip and current music, you can't find a better total fitness program. We offer the perfect balance of cardio and strength training. I have two daughters (one teenageer and one tween) and my jazzercising to "their" music keeps me connected with them as well. You won't find a safer, more fun exercise program - come give us a try! I have jazzercised in a lot of locations, and you won't find a nicer staff than at the Westfield location! Editor's Note: Sandy makes Jazzercise a blast! She has the brightest personality and is such a kind, caring person. She will get your day started with a smile and is a blessing to know. |

Mary Bannon - Class Manager 6:30 PM Class
On January 1, 1991, I quit smoking. I packed on 35 pounds from that venture! I love to dance so 6 months later, I started Jazzercise and have been doing it since. Jazzercise has lowered my weight and cholesterol. It will ALWAYS be a part of my life. What's not to love?!?! Editor's Note: Mary LOVES Jazzercise! She has been a Class Manager for 4 different instructors and would love to share her enthusiasm with you. She lives in Noblesville with her extremely spoiled Yorkie - Buddy. |

Kim Camplin - Class Manager 8:15 AM Class
I Jazzercised a few years in Indianapolis and stopped when I gave birth to my youngest daughter. When I moved to Westfield, I saw an ad in the paper and knew it was for me! That was back in 1994 and I have been chasse-ing and grapevining ever since. Editor's Note: Kim is a Charter Member of Westfield Jazzercise and attended our very first class. Her smile and sweet disposition lead me to bring her on staff shortly after that. She has been a Class Manager since 1994! She lives in Westfield with her two girls and her gorgeous Golden Retrevier - Rocky. |

Diane Lennon - Class Mgr. 6:30 PM Class
I've been Jazzercising consistantly now for about 11-12 years. Before that, when my children were younger, I would go whenever possible. Jazzercise helps me stay healthy both mentally and physically. I would average 5-6 classes a week and have been a Class Manager for about 5 years. Bottom line - Jazzercise is the only exercise program I've found that can combine working out, dancing and having fun all at the same time! Editors Note - Diane has been a faithful, dedicated Jazzerciser and a regular member of our 100 and 200 Club - - quite an accomplishment! Diane lives in Noblesville and has 2 grown sons, two grandsons and two pampered pooches. Her commitment to fitness will inspire you! |

Mitzi Eichenberger - Class Mgr 9:20 AM Class
I have been "Jazzin" for a little over 2 years and I absolutely love Jazzercise! It is the only type of exercise I've been able to stick with and do regularly. Susan and Sandy mix up the types of music and routines to keep things fun, interesting and challenging for your level. It is the only exercise that I have not gotten bored with. One big thing that attracted me was FREE baby-sitting. The sitters are great and the kids get play/social time. This has been the biggest benefit - time for ME. I always feel better when I leave and the bonus is I'm healthier and setting a good example for my children. Editor's Note: Mitzi is our newest Class Manager and brings a wonderful enthusiasm to our classes. She's a great asset to our team! She lives in Westfield and has 2 beautiful girls. |

Dotty Stidham - Class Manager 9:20 AM Class and Susan's Mom
I have been a Jazzerciser and a Class Manager since Susan opened her classes in September 1994. My temporary offer to help out until she got on her feet has turned into a permanent job that I love. Jazzercise keeps me young and I really enjoy the wonderful ladies that come to class. Jazzercise is a great way to stay fit, healthy and active! Editor's Note: What can I say about my sweet Mom!! She has been here since day one and is a wonderful support. Her dedication to healthy living inspires me! Dotty lives in Westfield with Grandpa Bill. She has 2 sons and me plus 1 granddaughter and 3 grandsons. |

Grandpa Bill Stidham - Chief Childcare Worker and Susan's Dad
In 1994, I offered to help Susan with baby-sitting until she could find someone to take the job. Well, 13 years later - I am still helping! I really enjoy spending time with the kids and they are so sweet. Editor's Note: My dad is the BEST! He truly loves our JazzerKids, who all call him Grandpa Bill. He brings a special patience and love to the job that only a seasoned grandpa can bring. He will melt your heart! Grandpa Bill lives in Westfield with Dotty. They have 2 sons and me plus 1 granddaughter and 3 grandsons. |

Sherry Ellis - Baby-Sitter
I have been a baby-sitter for over a year. It is so much fun to see these kids grow up right before my eyes. We have fun in the nursery - reading books, coloring, playing with toys, watching videos and making up our own games. The kids always bring their imaginations - some days I am a superhero, a bad guy, a dog or just myself. It is fun to see what I'll be next! I have been Jazzercising since 2004. I started after my son was born and have continued through my second pregnancy and birth of my daughter. Jazzercise is a great cardio and strength training workout! I don't think the baby weight would have ever come off without it. It is a fun class and I smile and laugh so much, I forget I am getting a great workout. Editor's Note: Sherry is wonderful with our JazzerKids. She always has a smile on her face and is so patient with the little ones. She also brings a great energy to class! Your kids will adore her! Sherry lives in Westfield and has 4 year old son and 1 1/2 year old daughter. |

Wendi Tomlinson - Baby-Sitter
I have Jazzercised off and on since 2000. It has been a part of my life when I worked, got married, had my babies and raising them. It helps me get my day started off on the right foot. It is the only workout that has kept me coming back for more and never fails to make me smile. By the end of class I am energized and feel great about myself and my day ahead. The instructors and managers are so warm and nice, you feel like family. I am also a babysitter and have been for about 5 years. It has been great socialization for my children who don't go to daycare and a great way to meet the other mothers. The kids grow up so fast I don't like to miss a thing. I have watched so many Jazzerbabies grow up in the nursery and have enjoyed every minute of it. Now that mine aren't babies anymore, I look forward to seeing the little ones' smiles and hugs every week. Editor's Note: Wendi is such a blessing and is great with the kids. She has a wonderful, calm spirit that the kids just love. She truly adores the children. Wendi lives in Sheridan and has a 5 year old daughter and 2 year old son. |
