Outside of online training (which is usually more injury related) I only train groups. Right now my biggest group is 7 ... my space is rather limited, but what I do is exactly what JP suggested. I have a circuit of 8-10 exercises ... they each start on a different exercise, and we go for TIME instead of reps. They know to keep track of their reps so that they can progress session to session (building more exercise density into that work session). I don't build in any rest per se, but they get rest while they are switching exercises. Seems to work great. We do a group dynamic warm-up, and a group cool-down. They go through the circuit twice. Then, depending upon time, we might also do some focused core work, or modified Tabatas, yoga flows (sun salutation variations), or just static stretching.
