J’r - James R. Haywood, Jr., is the energy, innovation, and creative spark behind Studio C. He curates class programming, hypes up every room, and makes sure you leave every workout feeling stronger than when you arrived. Whether it’s bringing fresh ideas, leading a high-energy class, or making sure you’re moving to the best beats, J’r is the pulse of Studio C’s electrifying atmosphere.

He stumbled into the world of group fitness back in 2012 when he crashed his mentor Lori Jamison's class—and boy, did he catch the fitness bug! Fast-forward to today, and He’s a certified Zumba aficionado, rocking everything from Zumba Kids to MixxedFit. But hey, that's not all—He’s also licensed in Buti Movement, Buti Deep and Xtreme Hip Hop Step, because why stick to just one groove?

Oh, and remember, there are only three rules in his class: (1) Safety first, (2) Let loose and have a blast, and (3) Leave the gum at home – we're here to work it, not chew it!

So, what are you waiting for? Let's shake, shimmy, and strut to fitness glory at Studio C Fitness. Get ready to "Get YO LIFE!!!!" on the dance floor with yours truly!
