Just in case you have not heard, I LOVE LOVE LOVE the new Madonna song, American Life. I am listening to it as I write this. Which leads me to music in step class. I think the reason I have probably become an instructor with some sort of following is the fact that I have some of the best music in the world. If you are ever at a gym and I am teaching a step class, stop by and just listen. Besides the fact that it tends to be exceptionally loud, I have some of the best music anyone can ask for. All this due to a genius of a DJ named Patrick Labbate who works out of Las Vegas. In my view, he is a god!!!!!!!
Thanks to Patrick, I am never bored in class. On the worst days, I can tune out the entire class and just groove on the music that is playing. His mixing is seamless and, even though I tend to ask for certain songs, he is able to mix in some songs that he KNOWS makes the tape just ROCK THE HOUSE. If and when he stops DJ'ing, I am going to stop teaching; unless I quit first.
So, thanks to Patrick Labbate for being an inspiration for me. Later.
