I drove to Champaign, Illinois today for a Turbokick continuing education class. I brought a new instructor with me, who needs to get certified. We came early, because she had to be there at 9:00 am until 5:30 pm. I only need to attend 11 to 1 to get my CECs. I passed twobike stores right near the gym! I know what I am going to be doingfrom 1 to 5:30!!!!! And my GPS says that there is another one within 2 miles of here! Woo hoo! Grab the credit cards!

@turbojackie, I do a turbo kick class at the Crunch near home. I really like it, although it's no substitution for KwandoStrike class at the former gym, where I actually wore boxing gloves and punch a tall bag!

Have fun.

Velocivixen,

I have taught turbokick for 8 years! I love it.

I am sitting at Panera now, waiting for Hillary to take her certification test. I spent the last 2 hours 45 minutes at a bike store around the corner. Loved it. I test road several Trek road bikes and had a great conversation with a young lady that worked there. She had me on several different sized bikes to see what fit me best. I walked out with quite a wish list!
