I thought I had a good class worked up today--four sets of intervals, each one had a 30, 60, 90 second interval then we pulled all three moves together, each for 30 seconds for 1 1/2 minutes.

When I sprained my ankle, the instructor got me an ice pack. I am the one who usually wipes out in my classes (a few weeks ago I fell off the ball and rolled into a participant) but if anyone got hurt (knock wood!) I'd do the same and recommend RICE.

It happens, Jean, don't feel bad. With physical movement comes the risk for injury and that's all there is to it. It's never great when it happens in your class, but it doe happen and unless you were being grossly negligent or irresponsible (which I highly doubt), it's not your fault.

Our gym didn't even have ice packs!

I also feel bad because it was on the BOSU.
