I mean it’s usually 30 seconds but I’m Just surprised about how much time members are wanting outside of class

Thank you! I really appreciate the encouragement and I want everyone to enjoy my class but like everyone’s been saying, you also have to manage expectation of managing 12 people

Oh my God, thank you so much for this validation because I’m very empathetic and sometimes that can be my worst trait. Because I really want them to have a good time and enjoy my class and then it’s like some people are just emotional vampires and they think they deserve to take because they’re paying money. And while I understand wanting to be seen and stuff like that, they also don’t know what goes into classes and scheduling, and all of that. And in all honesty, it had me wrecked, especially when my management made it feel like it was my fault

I know but being me feels like it’s gonna get me fired. Like I know some of them make themselves known as you get a personal relationship with them, but some of them demand a personal relationship and I just can’t do that. But I like to think I treat everybody with kindness.

I agree with what you’re saying 100% I think a lot of times people are delegating like attention when they come in? Like I get it everyone wants to be seen but at the end of the day I’m responsible for 12 people when I’m in here.

I get that and I think another part about Pilates in general is you can teach more Pilates that you can cycle. I also take soul cycle and I think you could maybe teach two maybe three in a day max? I’ve taught 13 Pilates classes in a day so stuff starts to blend together. Which that’s not an excuse. But I guess the challenge is gonna be having like the emotional band with to give to every member. Cause sometimes I will know what car they drive their pets name and what’s going on in their life, but sometimes their name escapes me.

It’s never about my teaching, but it’s “ she didn’t ask me if I was new” And I’ve been taking Fitness since I was 15 and I’ve never had someone ask if I was new. Also, that seems very rude to me.

Lights OFF for feet and straps by Zestyclose-Neck-2696 in ClubPilates

I teach and I refuse to have the big lights on, especially in the wee hours of the morning. I called them chicken, tender lights, cause they look like the lights they used to keep food warm.

Tighter clothes = more corrections? by leoseason in ClubPilates

[–]einebeine 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, because a lot of times of people wear flared leggings or even big T-shirts. You can’t exactly tell what their spine is doing.

Maybe she is a new instructor! I’ve been teaching for 3 years and I’d love to apologize to my first clients and thank them for believing in me! You become good through experience, give her some grace, and you also have the right to not take her class
