We\u2019re happy to highlight one of our wonderful Group X Instructors, Megan!<\/span><\/p>\n What is it that got you interested in teaching Group Exercise classes?<\/b> It was actually a member survey at my previous gym. I believe the question was, “What is something that no one knows about you?” I answered that I would secretly love to teach BodyCombat. The Group X Manager approached me and here we are today.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n Why do you enjoy teaching? <\/b>I adore the connection with the members and being a part of their fitness journey, as well as being a part of their life. My participants seem to become extended family. I love helping people achieve their goals and hit their desired marks.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Which format is your passion? <\/b>BodyCombat is my spirit animal, in regards to workouts. I’ve done kickboxing workouts since college, and bringing that passion to others, well, there’s not really a way to describe it. The endorphins, the adrenaline rush, the feeling of accomplishment\u2026There’s nothing like it!\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n How would you describe your class experience? <\/b>Sometimes, it is a karaoke bar where the music makes people jam out and forget they’re exercising. Other days, the choreography makes you think hard enough to focus on that. I think the unique nature lies in the fact that it always changes. The music, the drills, everything! Except the personality… I’m 100% in and committed each and every time.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n What are you currently working on to improve as an instructor?\u00a0<\/b>I am always working on reading the class and bringing what is needed to motivate them. I can get lost in positive reinforcement, so I’m trying to loop in different teaching skills and motivating techniques for my classes.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ _builder_version=”4.21.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" We\u2019re happy to highlight one of our wonderful Group X Instructors, Megan!
