Good luck Carolyn. You'll do great. 
Ok, NOW I'm nervous!

Thank you all for your kind words. The classes went fairly well today. My step routine (I THOUGHT) was pretty easy, but the ladies I think found it a little hard to follow. We ended up doing some moves up to 8 times in a row to get everyone on the same page. I think I was catering too much to the "weakest link", so next time I won't spend as much time on one thing.
Other than that, I thought it went well. I did forget a couple of things but tried to keep the "flow" going. Overall, I give myself a B+ for my effort. I have to say though, it was REALLY wierd to hear my own voice over the music. I had a hard time not wincing! That is going to take some getting used to!
Well, it's over, I'm relieved, and I'm off to take a nap and give my brain a rest!

Congratulations!
You will get used to the mic thing. Also, there is nothing wrong with doing moves 8 times in a row (sometimes I use that amount of repetition to give modification ideas). The biggest thing is to do exactly what you did, keep the flow moving.
BTW, when I teach step I always use notes and I have been doing it for years. I can do without but I like choreography and self reversing routines so I use notes. I do not use notes during my yoga or sculpt or other cardio classes (but do with pilates due to the need to memorize the order).
