How do you know if the instructor was good or not?
I went to JETSET Pilates again today after trying it for the first time last week. I had a different instructor today, and honestly, the experience was very different.
Today, I felt like the instructor was rushing to get through the class. While I was still struggling with one move, she had already moved on to the next. A few of us were having trouble understanding her cues, but she didn’t really stop to clarify or correct anyone’s form.
My instructor last week was completely different. She would demonstrate the movements, which made it much easier to follow, and she explained what each exercise was targeting like whether we should be feeling it in our inner thighs, glutes, etc. She also paid attention to our form and reminded us to slow down and do the movement correctly rather than just trying to finish the class.
For those of you who have been doing Pilates or Lagree for a while, how do you usually tell if an instructor is actually good? What do you look for in an instructor besides just how difficult the workout is?
