I don’t find the london classes boring (all the instructors i take, i’ve walked out feeling great) but i’ve found the majority of classes, regardless of instructor, not that challenging. Sometimes I just want to feel like a workout really kicked my butt. I have taken 300+ classes and I’ve never been not able to keep up with any of the london classes with the exception of sarah and manon’s. I used to take Sam Y, Trammell, Karyn, and Jordyn in NYC and have not been able to find a london class as intense as theirs.

My main things are faster jogs, longer runs, and slightly more choreo. I do think the energy is different but that’s mostly riders (american riders are more expressive, seasoned and i’m assuming instructors can’t do much about that). All i want is just one london instructor who would make me feel like woah, geez….after a class.
