First, and foremost, thank you all for putting up with such a *BLAH* class today. If today wasn't a case of the Mondays with respect to Zumba® Fitness, then I don't know what really is other than forgetting my music (which I have done before!!).
To any of the new Aqua Zumba® participants reading this - I assure you that class normally is NOT what you saw today. Usually we have half of the main pool open for us, and the music is blaring loud and we're lost in our groove. About the only normal thing was me looking like a drowned rat after class was over!
Today was anything but that obviously. I'm almost 100% certain that the music was cutting out on us because they had the music up at full volume - so the stereo couldn't handle the load.
Word on the street is that this swim team is having their normal facility worked on, which is why they are borrowing TAC. The upsetting part is that I was not told about this until I walked into TAC this evening and then told you all. Even more disappointing is that these students are supposed to be at TAC on Thursdays for the foreseeable future. *sigh*
As I would hope you'd expect from me, I will be talking to the aquatic director tomorrow about this. He's not going to be able to continue having an Aqua Zumba® class if students can't HEAR the music. I know you all who are in the Aqua class really love Aqua Zumba® - I can see it in your eyes, and the way you talk about it - it warms my heart so. Likewise, I really enjoy teaching Aqua Zumba® so I really want things to work out, but having to attempt to hear music over 40-something high school students is just impossible!
If you want to express your feelings on this matter directly to the aquatic director yourself, please contact me, and I will give you the director's contact information.
