Inside voices checklist: six household bricks, five dumbbells (not the PAX), two basketballs, one rock from the school yard, Bluetooth speaker and tabata timer. These are not your ordinary school supplies but they make great fitness toys. With the upcoming school year starting this week, it was appropriate to crank up the tunes and head over to Lindley Elementary for some “School of Rock” (Jack Black style).  After setting up the gear and signage, YHC made it over to the main AO with ten minutes to spare. However, the AO was PAX free, but as the 5:55 class warning bell chimed, multiple cars screeched into the parking lot. Moreover, several PAX rolled in just after the tardy bell causing class to start late. It’s a good thing YHC is lenient on the tardy policy (could have assigned burpees to everyone). Here is how the Rock Concert played out:
