Start Teaching Today :)

Popping in today to say....I START TEACHING AGAIN THIS WEEK,....
Back to the routine of driving the 30 mins to the other town's sports hall to teach groups of German ladies...In English...
I qualified in Dance during my 18th year...then opened my own studio and taught Modern Dance classes ~ at the age of 27 I was asked if I wanted to qualify as an Aerobic Instructor, a new gym that had just opened, the first of its kind in South Africa and needed Instructors. I jumped at the chance...Did the 6 months course and got myself qualified and started my teaching career...My youngest was 2 when I qualified in Aerobics and she is 24 years old today....so its been 22 years in the fitness industry for me. I qualified in Dance when my eldest was 2 and she is now 34...so thats 32 years that I have been in the teaching profession. How the years add up....scary indeed.
I'm qualified in Dance, Competitive Sports Aerobics, Step Aerobics, High Impact Aerobics, Power Boxing, Pilate's Ball, Spinning, Weights, Power Pump, Dance Aerobics, Low Impact and Pilate's...Now I want to get myself qualified in Zumba and planning on doing the course this year....

Well thats me in a nutshell.

  5. Hope you have a great group to teach. It's something I've always sort of half considered doing, but never really been in the position to go for it. Perhaps when I'm "retired" from my current job I'll consider it more. Have fun!
