What do you think I am the paparazzi? Nancy Kaplan says I am. She told her friend what happens here at EQ when it comes to spin class. As she described the ritual we all go through and just take for granted one Saturday, it struck me that we have our own cottage industry surrounding the ceremony of booking reservations, switching bikes, getting up at 530 am, the bald headed guy that writes about it all and just who is zooming whom. It is truly singular in nature. There’s that woman again Nancy Kaplan. Her husband is a famous doctor and when I ask her about esoteric subjects like amoebic dysentery she gives me the skinny. Nancy Kaplan it’s just like talking to a doctor without the 750.00 fee. Any who I am supposed to be writing about spin class after all this is KSC ain’t it? Yeah I guess so.
So where was I? Oh. I took Dawn Moore’s class this week. What night was that? I think she was subbing for Johnny Kocaj. Yes she was. Dawn Moore I ask the Queen via our electronic communication medium tell me about Dawn Moore and she informs me how good she is and I’m gonna love her and that’s she’s a seasoned spin instructor. I think to myself after 500 stories on KSC KJ doesn’t have to give me the company line on how good someone is but that’s her nature to only say great things about any member of her staff. Okay I say let’s climb aboard and see if there’s some hubbub I can scribe about. And with the exception of David Cooper I will not write about anyone unless there is something good to say. So Jack is there something good to say about Dawn Moore? I wondered if she might be just a little nervous her first time out. Not her first time as a spin instructor but her virgin tour in the big leagues (at least in our own minds) at Woodbury EQ. Of course she’s good more than good. This woman looking more like Serena Williams than some of our other lithesome instructors but nonetheless she moves through the air like a June Taylor dancer. Wait. Sometimes I hate being 62.5 years old because my references are so obscure. Most of you probably don’t know who the June Taylor dancers are. Just google it. Needless to say that when Dawn Moore gets off the bike (I love when instructors get off the bike it tells me how confident they are. It tells me they got game. Oh Dawn Moore she’s got game.) She got the movement cherry baby and as she rocks side to side in perfect rhythm to the percussion my pedal stroke moves in tandem with her hips.
Dawn Moore she be cool. What about her discography? Stacy next to me that night who knows every song imaginable (and lip-synchs to them all) said she hadn’t heard these selections before. Either had I and my guess was that it was a club mix all her own. It’s fine just because it’s not Maroon 5 or David Guetta we can still get by. Dawn Moore I will be back girl.
