  Thanks? Nice to hear I'm not alone, I used to be bothered in BP classes being the only person following the music. I've tried to no avail to correct everyone on these forums showing how all the instructors on the DVD were moving faster than the music and taking ALOT of extra pauses. Anyways, yeah I'm a complete beat freak, I used to run marathons to a set of music all 168-172 BPM (about 5 hours worth). I will give feedback on the RPM class, I've done fine in BA, BS, had issues in BP, BF. Not saying the instructor is always perfect in BA, BS but some errors are to be expected, BP and BF have chronic errors throughout... I don't use any program to tell me the BPM's, I have a program called StepMania which I play almost daily, in the game you can put arrows and make them scroll, I specialize in making the arrows match the music perfectly by determining the BPM of the song (or section of the song) with great precision. I do this by tapping along and listening to the beat, so I have a really strong sense of perfect timing which apparently bothers many people due to my critiques in BP. In fact I had to make some videos due to all the people who said I was wrong in my BP analysis. End result was all the instructors don't care and won't change... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zos22YwAntk&feature=channel http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DEa4M0BawJ0 Hopefully your classes appreciate your effort, I believe I would, and I wish there were local instructors who cared about rhythm... - Jeremiah
