good reference manual

I ordered this book to prepare for my primary aerobics instructor certification through AFAA. I found the text to be thorough and clearly written, unlike some other instructor references I had examined. It is a text and is therefore somewhat dry, but it offers a information on both the science behind fitness classes and the mechanical aspects of structuring and teaching a group fitness class. It also features articles by contributors about different types of fitness classes. Overall, a good primer and reference geared toward the fitness instructor and those with a desire for deeper knowledge.
