I was in another Instructor's very popular class this week. My main purpose was to experiment with the new Stages iPhone App that works with the FreeMotion console. Review coming this weekend. My secondary objective was to see what I could learn from him, that I could apply in my class.
This class is very popular for a bunch of reasons:
- He's been teaching this specific class for years.
- 8:30 am is a great time slot for the "stay-at-home" moms in the area.
- It's a large club with thousands of members to draw from.
- He's a very good looking guy, with excellent presentation skills.
None of these I have any control over. But what I do have control over is the music I play... and what he used really surprised me - club / dance music with a lot of energy that included multiple changes in intensity and emotion like this track.
If you don't normally use music like this you may consider experimenting with it to see what happens 🙂

The track didn’t show up for me. What was the song/artist?
Lynette I’m seeing everything. Try refreshing the page if you haven’t – there’s a lot of fancy stuff in the background that adds that player to the post. Occasionally there’s a little hic-up and nothing happens.
