My 4th baby was this way. Thanksgiving and Christmas were a nightmare. They do tend to grow out of it as my now 2.5 yr old daughter is relatively social, does not get fussy when we have people in our house. It is quite a dramatic difference from when she was a baby. Give it time.

Also, if she has something/does something for comfort (mine has a blanket and sucks her finger), make sure she has those things when she gets fussy. its her way of calming herself down.

Sorry but you dont' give enough info...
How old is she?
What kind of class?
If it is a class for you then my advice is not to take her... It is not fair to the other students.
If it is a class for her... we need to know more info.. as to what kind of class.
Age matters when answering this question...

This is normal. Many kids go thru this stage. It will change as she gets older.

I don't think there is any reason to worry. She might just be a little overwhelmed by it all. Just be patient, and don't push her to interact w/ someone- it may cause her more anxiety. She may just be slow to warm- as she gets older, she'll probably start to outgrow it.
If you want to continue with the class, you could let her watch the class from the safety of your lap for a while- she may decide she wants to join in once it isn't so new.

How old is she. Sounds normal to me.

She sounds like a very intelligent baby that has "early recognition"- that is she recognizes that some people are familiar-and some are strange. Smart girl!
