First Days at the Fitness and Rehab Facility

I started teaching various classes in July 2003. Of course I didn't know many of the members but began learning names and becoming friends. At the time, we had a great coordinator too! Kimberly was very knowledgeable and personable too. She made herself available to the members and tried to meet everyone's requests as much as possible.

I began taking other instructor classes to get an idea of how each person taught his or her classes and to make myself visible so the members and I could meet and chat and become familiar with each other.

As time went on, both members and instructors grew and most instructors began to challenge the members even more. The members went so far as to ask for extended classes. One such request was to create an Endurance Cycling class that was twice as long as the normal class. I offered to start teaching the class and Kimberly happily put it on the schedule. We had some die-hard members and they loved this class. Other instructors began teaching the class too!

We would mix in some special classes from time to time to keep members interested and motivated. Hip Hop, Stability Ball, and multi-step classes were just a few of the offerings. This facility, in my opinion, had a really great program and group of instructors! I was happy to be a part of this team!
