Category - Music and Equipment

Health facilities which offer freeform movement classes have a professional responsibility to offer a safe exercise experience. Which of the following examples is MOST likely to result in a safe experience?
  1. Controls for lighting, temperature, and sound connections securely located in a locked instructor’s room
  2. A wooden or synthetic flooring designed to absorb shock
  3. Mirrors at the side of the exercise room
  4. A podium for the instructor
Explanation
Answer: B - Professional studios typically have a wooden or synthetic floor designed to absorb movement impact and prevent uncontrolled motions of the foot upon impact. The controls for the music, microphones, and other electronic equipment are conveniently positioned in the front of the room under the immediate control of the instructor. Mirrors are positioned in the front of the room - and sometimes on the sides -- to permit class members to assess their own form and execution. Finally, the instructor is often positioned on a raised platform - not behind a podium - in order to maximize participants’ ability to visually assess the instructor.
