30 minutes (2 miles) Leslie Sansone power walk with weights.
60 minutes bellydance (private lesson)
This was the first private lesson with Sara (who I hate to identify as the girl who is deaf. How about the amazingly quick to learn girl who happens to be deaf?), her sister and mom. It went very well, and I think that I was able to be much more helpful to them in an intimate setting. They seemed to enjoy it, and said they'd be back next week. They are really nice, and I'm glad none of the weird stuff in my house freaked them out--at least it didn't seem to!
I have had two people before come out for private lessons, a pair of women who came out a couple of times and then stopped coming because of family and finances, and one lady who said that bellydance seemed to aggravate her hip and back, so she didn't want to come back. So I'm somewhat prepared for the worst when people say they want to come out for privates. On the one hand, I don't have to pay out for use of the gym, but on the other, it does mean that I have to prepare for class three time a week instead of two. This is probably no big deal to other teachers, but for me it means that I have to budget my physical activity so that I don't end up hurt the next day. As it is, I may have overdone it anyway, but we will see.
