Floor spacing, hygiene, sizing a mixed room, and how to sequence a class where everyone is on a different diameter.
A ball class is a logistics problem before it is a movement problem. Get the room right and the sequencing takes care of itself.
Balls roll. Allow a 2m square per person, not the 1.5m you would use for mats, and leave a clear metre against every wall — wall squats need it and a loose ball needs somewhere to go that is not someone's head.
Mild soap solution between classes, not alcohol spray. Alcohol dries the shell and within a term you will have a rack of chalky, slippery balls. Air dry rather than towelling, which drags grit across the texture.
