Hi All,
I was wondering if there is anybody out there who also struggles with hyper mobility. The key issue is, I can go pretty far with my joints and I sometimes just go too far and don't engage that muscle I am supposed to engage.
Especially on all fours when we lift our legs in a bent position, I sometimes struggle not to overburden my hip flexor and I struggle to understand what parallel hips actually means. I can't gauge whether I am still flexible as my hips are too mobile
Maybe Marnie, can you show us in a Q&A where to actually stop?
THANKS!
Sarah
Answering Question from today's LIVE class 🫶
We got a question from our lovely Amanda Powell about struggling with keeping the M/OVEMENT Ball secure while behind the knee (photo above). A couple of you wanted to hear Marnie's thoughts as well - so we thought we'd do a post!
First, Marnie recommends using the Mini M/OVEMENT Ball when doing this particular exercise and making sure you don't inflate it too much. If you're even remotely sweaty, the classic M/OVEMENT Ball can be just too slippery.
Second, you'll really want to feel the ball pressing into your leg because that helps induce and maintain blood flow.
Play around with how hard you're squeezing the ball. Sometimes when we squeeze it too tight, it can pop out. Part of the challenge is finding that sweet spot — it's a conscious negotiation of control.
Hope that helps! p.s. new challenge coming soooooon 🤭
Greetings Everyone!
I suffer from panic disorder and sometimes after a workout I get panic attacks. I have spoken with a few friends who also experience this from time to time. Does anyone have any suggestions for how to prevent attacks? I do try to balance challenging myself with being compassionate, but it still happens occasionally.
Any ideas would be appreciated!
Hugs to all.
Jenna
Just checking in here to see is there a live class on Saturday. Tomorrow of Memorial Day ?
A quick early Happy Birthday to my fellow 5/24 Birthday peeps ahead of Saturday's class!! Gutted to miss a birthday class. Will catch up later. xo
Schedule Shift! 🤍
Gfam! Due to a family emergency, Wednesday’s 30 min Abs + Pelvic Floor workout is being rescheduled. You will see it very soon on our June live sched (so don’t worry) 😉
We recommend doing our 20 min Spooky Pelvic Floor Sculpt! It’s a good foundation to build on for when you see it on our schedule next!
We will be BACK this Saturday for our 60 min Signature! Thanks for being with us through life’s ebbs and flows 🙏 we are so grateful for you.
Can’t wait to see you Saturday!

Far-flung MBody Fam! After many years seeing Mayo on the community board, I met this wonderful human being on our trip from London to Osaka for a hot bowl of Ramen 🍜. She can only be described as kick-ass and is a total inspiration in following your dreams, being yourself and making things happen. We spoke about our different lives, Japanese vs UK culture, the stories of our families, to-be children, and dreamed of doing an IRL Marnie class one day. This was my first IRL meet within the community and it was a real joy. This community really brings together inspirational women and good, positivity-radiating people. Keep doing them if you can! Anyone else in the UK who wants to meet some time over summer in London?
P.S. Shoutout to husband for being our photographer 📸
Hi, everyone! I had about a two month hiatus, and I missed my two year Marnie-versary! What a beautiful community and platform. Oh, how grateful I am for finding Marnie in a PopSugar video so I could finally join a fitness community I am still so passionate about two+ years later. Thank you, Marnie!
On a happy note, my absence was due to the fun of first trimester of pregnancy—nausea, exhaustion, etc. At this time last year, I was about to miscarry for the second time in a row. I’m happy to report that after three losses (two back-to-back), we made it through the first trimester and seemingly have a healthy pregnancy again. I’m so excited to move again and keep my body healthy while I grow this little one.
Thanks for making me feel loved and included, y’all. I never have been able to join the in-person events, but I’m so grateful for people making me feel like I belong here. Sending love to everyone! 💜
