VIXEN WORKOUT IS CREATING AN ARMY OF DANCE CARDIO DIVAS

By LISA ELAINE HELD, MAY 3, 2015 In an average fitness class, running shoes and ponytails are standard. To work out in the Vixen Army, recruits wear wedge sneakers (they’re recommended in the What To Wear section on the website along with a favorite lipstick) and let their hair down. Members of the New York City regiment are packed into an old dance studio near Penn Station, practically on top of each other, to shake their booties with their Commander in Chief, Janet Jones, 3

Introducing ‘Vixen Workout’, where cardio meets Beyonce

A new workout trend encourages women to unleash their inner Beyonce by giving cardio routines a touch of nightclub sexiness. Before the music begins, members of the women-only exercise class — dressed in shredded tank tops, full makeup and wedged sneakers — pose seductively before studio mirrors and chant, “Yes, I’m sexy. Yes, I’m fierce. Yes, I’ve got this.” Empowerment is a big part of the Vixen workout, a hip-hop dance class with a nightclub feel that fitness experts say o

Janet Jones, Former Miami Heat Dancer, Creates The Vixen Workout (video)

August 5, 2013 As the music played in a Miami nightclub, Janet Jones and a group professional women in their 30s were hesitant to relax and dance. “We went out to let loose and forget life,” said Jones, a former Miami Heat dancer who was working in finance. “But we felt that we couldn’t dance because we were someone’s boss, someone’s mom or someone’s superior.” That’s when Jones, who was laid off from her finance job, had the idea to create the Vixen Workout, an hour-long car
