I'm very pleased to have the opportunity to read from this forum and to use it to improve my teaching. The fashion of aerokickboxing is still very new in France and French West Indies. The tae bo has just arrived in the biggest fitness clubs. Of course, originally there wasn't then any music but instructors and students used to count out loud for the different moves. Nowadays we do it with music.
Students practice both aerobic and sparring savate.
Around 20 to 30 people attend a course at the same time. Only advance can work with proper forms at 130-135 keeping the purity of the kicks. Remember this combo is a warm up, done after a little minimal stretching, and use a slow beat. Every one takes one's guard position and keep it. I do demonstrate in cueing every kick and move, even the side step.
