No, they never asked us to leave, but asked us to join them. We were already there, swimming, talking and enjoying ourselves when people started to come in, telling us they were getting ready for a class, and we were "welcome" to join them. We didn't want to join them, we wanted to keep doing what we were doing, but then there were 24 in the pool, each with a noodle and a set of dumbbells, which left no room for anyone else to even move. Think, 24 people with their arms extended at their sides....leaves no room. We watched a bit, then left, realizing we either had to exercise with them, or leave. We were told the class occurs three days a week. Then the leader denies it's a class and when they are checked by The Villages pool checkers, they stop exercising and stand there pretending to swim and socialize so they don't get caught. It feels like high school all over again!
