Okay, so I've become a Jazzercise FREAK. I mean, I love it. I really do. When I spotted it in the Community Education catalog I know my
and I 
. The image that popped in my head was that of Olivia Newton John in her "Let's Get Physical" video (I'm aging myself here, I know. 
). I mean big 80's hair, heavy blush, leg warmers, g-string leotards over tights. 
. I really did. But I had to stop by the Community Center to register my kids for stuff so I figured, 
. What the heck?! I'll check it out. The first class was free, so I showed up in time to catch it.
I was more than a little surprised by it! The music was great, the people were of all shapes and sizes and fitness levels - from brand new to uber fit and it was fun! I figured it'd be 30 minutes of dancing around so I was taken by surprise when we did like 35 minutes of heart-pumping aerobics and then did 20 minutes of weight training/abs and then stretched. I left there 
and really happy. I've been there 5-6 times a week ever since. That was only 7 weeks ago.A week ago I started going in 30 minutes early on Mondays and Tuesdays to help the instructor out. She needed help setting up the gym on those mornings and someone to check people in. I thought, "What the heck. I'm gonna be there anyway." - so I volunteered and was really
when she gave me my classes for free in exchange. 
Well, today after class the instructors approached me. I thought maybe I'd messed something up on a new student's paperwork or something and was all ready to
and cop an attitude if I had to. (Uptight much these days, Brook? 
) . I asked what was wrong and that's when she said it..."We think you should go and get certified to teach classes and start off subbing in our area! What do you think?!"
And this leads me to this thought..
If you'd have told me 5 years ago that I'd be 90lbs lighter, several sizes smaller, a non-smoker, and avid low carber I'd have told you you were
. But if you'd have told me that I'd be entertaining the thought of becoming an exercise instructor or have instructor's approach me and tell me I should really think about it, I'd have thought you done lost your mind!I don't know if I'm gonna pursue it or not, but I was HUGELY flattered and excited at the thought of it and really.... I think it's just cool!
I was excited and had to
and share!Talk about life changing stuff! Sweeeeeeet!!
at that!! You have the perfect personality for a job like that. You could keep people motivated and have tons of fun!!
What a great compliment!!!!
