Guest guest Posted July 10, 2004 Report Share Posted July 10, 2004 Believe me I've toyed with the idea of becoming an instructor for some time. My two big problems that I have though is one: I've put on an extra twenty pounds because of the medication I've been on for years (nasty side effect). I'm working on it. Two: Because of all my health issues I HAVE to have medical insurance which usually means desk job :-( When I was married to a Marine and had free healthcare we were saving up for me to go to the Taebo instructor bootcamp which was around $1500+ but then we got divorced and I had to support myself. Its still a dream but a lot of obstacles have to be cleared first.' Thanks for the encouragement! a > > I love Belly Dancing!!!

Guest guest Posted July 11, 2004 Report Share Posted July 11, 2004 a, I got certified to teach Turbo Kick at 200 lbs! I currently weigh 165 lbs and am heavier than most instructors at the gym, and I have quite a following! I too am working on it but am doing just fine! I too have an 8-5 desk job for the very reasons you mentioned, but teach twice a week on the weekends and sub during the week. You're going to spend the hours working out anyway, you might as well get paid to do it! It's like getting paid to eat pizza, I swear! The best gig around! As far as $ to get certified - Tae Bo is VERY expensive. Turbo Kick is only $159 and it comes to your area or not too far away. Other more general formats might be as cheap as $50 - for example, 24 Hour Fitness has an " Xpedition " where you learn their " brand " classes and they can be as cheap as $30 and they are more general - boot camp, aqua, step etc just their versions/choreography. The expensive test that you have to pass to teach is the " primary " . Usually this is ACE or AFAA. I went AFAA, as do most people I know. I can call you and tell you more about this if you like. a, you sound like you'd be the most fun and motivating instructor EVER! -- In , " a " <paulajfrey@l...> wrote: > Believe me I've toyed with the idea of becoming an instructor for > some time.
