Jenni,

Which class was basic at the WMTC opening? Was it on Friday night?...cause

all of the Saturday classes seemed to be taught at supersonic speed...lol.

Glad you've fallen in love again )!!!!!! What a

great tape to get back into the grove with. That is

the best one. The memories of the tapings and

gatherings are always AWESOME!!!! I'm glad you have

those memories and that they helped you in your

workout. Everytime I do a tape with us in it, the

memories come flowing back.

Sandie, Tae and Bo who might take a break from TBTV

and do a live one )!!!!!

Jenni,

Hey girlfriend! I am here to tell you (and you, too ) that

even though that class was mostly instructional......it was nowhere

near EASY or BASIC...LOL! In fact, do you remember Shellie saying

after it was over that that class was probably the hardest one of all

of the classes that had been taught that day? It was harder because

there was no music and we were concentrating so intensely on our

form. Plus, there was still LOTS of double time and I know that it

kicked my butt! So, don't be too hard on yourselves...just because

it was an instructional class, I'd still categorize it as ADVANCED
