I like when an instructor notices I’m new to a class and welcomes me, privately, after class. Makes me feel like she cares and wants me there — but just the slightest bit embarrassed that I didn’t do better!

No wonder you’re all fired about up about this! How annoying!! I’d make those good for nothing students work their asses off, too!

What kind of classes do you teach?

I hate it when I am paying for the time to be there and the teacher is ineffective. That's worse. I could give a crap about the lazy ones next to me, i'm there for a workout, dammit. Lisa, just be the hardest teacher at the gym and the lazy ones won't come. Rachels last blog post..For the love of eggplant

I haven’t taken any group fitness classes since high school, so I don’t have any complaints about the instructors.

How rude!! If I was in your class, I wouldn’t chit-chat. It just isn’t polite.

Firemom-WOW, that is totally unacceptable! She has no business being an instructor, much less one in charge of the entire program!

HaHa..oh this is a good one. I don’t do group fitness, but I do 2 or 3 at a time..when they are talking it up, I have to ‘remind’ them that they’re taking too much time between sets/reps and that they’re losing the effect of the exercise on their system, I tell them their muscles are cooling too much, etc… And then when all else fails I ask them if they really want to pay for a double session–sarcasm here! That always works and we magically seem to make up all our lost time.
