Yes - group hug ((((( ))))).

Irulan - just to reassure you I'm not as totally hung up on the condition of the instructor( unless they're male, tanned, with nice a nice firm bod.... perhaps I was wrong! LOL ) and I'd would ALWAYS rate qualifications and teaching style over the size of their waiste.

I 'm still pretty new to the whole spinning thing and until I feel a bit more experienced I suppose I just want an instructor I feel comfortable with and knows what they're talking about. For me the body of a well buffed instructor acts as something to encourage me, and at the moment I need all the encouragement I can get - especially after all those Easter Eggs!!!
