Zumba Update

OK, so I never heard back from Jim-Bo. That's ok. When I went to meet with him I had a long chat then I showed him my stuff. I could tell he was impressed with my skilz but he expressed concern about the fact that I had (at the time) never taught a single Zumba class. I can't say I blame him. Anyway, the good news is that it seem that he didn't pick any of the Zumba instructors at all. He put in a pilates class... wow, a pilates class in Seattle, how original! So whatev, I'm slightly relieved because I didn't really feel ready and I also have a new development that seems to be taking some of my time... i will save that blog for a later date.

I also have some good Zumba news too! I have officially taught 2 weeks of Zumba classes and they are going great! I had the class fill out comment cards after class 1 and I got responses like "best class ever", "thank you for making us all feel comfortable", and "can't wait for the next class".

I am secretly worried that the class might be a little boring but my friend who takes it assured me that I am mostly likely just grossly overestimating the dance abilities of the students. That's good for me because I can just do the same routines the next few weeks so they can "perfect them" and I don't have to do any outside work. Yeay!
