You know, I've weighed every option for the way my new career should go. I have even taken three jobs, but have ultimately decided against all of them because my day time work schedule just doesn't make it possible. I can't leave my current job without having my bills paid off and without knowing I have funds to fall back on if the economy does a severe southward dive, or if the business doesn't pick up as I'd hoped.
I think I've decided, then, to take continuing education through ACE's aerobics program, expand that to water aerobics (because I love to work with senior citizens), and try to make that work on Saturdays until I can save enough through that to pay the bills and have a cushion.
I am so impressed with the many, many continuing education programs that ACE provides...I'm sure I'll want to sample as many of them as I can!
I have the "boot camp" coming up in June (gulp). REALLY nervous over that one, since most of my experience has been in very small gyms with free weights, and I've NEVER done fitness testing hands on.
