What a major let down!
After anticipating for weeks, it had to accumulate to this! First time that i felt so stressed out in class. First, the class started late cos the instructor G was busy concentrating her time on other projects. Second, when she asked about our dance background, she was surprised that the few of us were only beginners! Hello! You were the one who suggested we come for this technique class when there were not enough to make up the intermediate. Now look who's talking! I felt like retorting her when she said that technique was for those who had done intermediate. But I kept my cool. Way to go, gal!
During the class, we practised the basic steps and were told to dance around the room. Being our first lesson, we were not clear of what she wanted us to do. Did she want a sequence? Oh gosh! We had forgotten the steps. And there was no partner for us today. I had to partner J and both of us did not know how to lead. After seeing our disastrous attempt, she said she just wanted us to move across the room using whatever steps we know. Need not be a sequence, just go with the flow. What crap! She should make herself clear right from the start! Finally we managed to manoeuvre round the room, albeit a little clumsy.

Before the class ends, she taught us a new step which i gathered the rest of the class knew prior cos they could even do a variation of the step! It was so difficult that I had even forgotten the name of the step!
Sigh... Too challenging and we simply did not enjoy the class. So after it ended, we talked to K to voice our grievances to switch back to an intermediate class. Alas! The next intermediate class is on 28 Nov. That's such a long time away! And who knows it might not realise if the numbers are too little. So he suggested we take a private class since there're 5 of us. But it'll be more expensive. We'd have control over the timing though... What to do... No choice cos we prefer K to G as we are more familiar with K who was our beginner instructor. We really dun like G. So what if she's the principal. She's just not as approachable.
So we'll have to wait till 9 Nov for our first lesson after accommodating everyone's schedule. Anticipating that day... Just hope that it won't be a let down again... Seeking for a 6th person to take up the class with us to share the cost so it would be cheaper! Male preferred! hehe.
Oh ya. They still have the audacity to collect fees for today's class from us! Words just could not describe my exasperation! So much so that i had to type my thoughts on my hp on my way home in the train. If not, I might fall sick if I bottle it up!

i think you should not need to pay for the first class. it's obviously the school's fault for recommending the wrong class for you, simply for their own convenience (to fill up the vacancies to start a claass)
