ICI Podcast #151 – PRO Member Interview with Alice Heffner

With all of these very talented Indoor Cycling Instructors available we thought; "why not add a monthly Podcast featuring one of our members?" Meet ICI/PRO Member Alice Heffner! In this episode Alice shares the steps she took to start and build a new class, at a new club, at a weird time, completly from scratch. If you are a new Instructor, or maybe looking to add an additional class or two to your teaching schedule, you may discover some ideas that you can use to break into that fancy club where you've always want to teach 🙂 These free Podcasts are provided through a sponsorship from Cycling Fusion Listen to the Podcast below or subscribe for free using Information about missing episodes ICI Podcast — The Lost Episodes...
