When you're reaching the end of your class and your riders look like their losing their motivation, throw this song their way and they are sure to gain their second wind.  You and your riders will love the amazing beat that trails in and out as the song progresses.  (67 rpm) To use these teaching notes, make sure you are using the original version which clocks in at 6 minutes and 26 seconds.  Here's the rundown:

:00 seated flat/ :30 standing climb, add gear every 15 seconds / 1:30 seated flat (recover) / 2:00 standing climb, add gear every 15 seconds / 3:00 seated flat (recover) / 3:30 standing climb, add gear every 15 seconds / 4:30 seated flat (recover)/ 5:00 standing climb, add gear every 15 seconds.

On your standing climb sets, start out on a moderate hill and and gear every 15 seconds until the final 15 is a very steep hill.

You could also use the remix with the same teaching notes- it has a bit of a different sound but is around the same length:
