This was such an incredible XXX and 555th class. Energizing playlist with some really classic Signature class moves. Short arm series with weights, some challenging planks, abs with hips on the ball (one of my faves) and lots of jump options. I said it in the Live, but I love how many hip rolls we do in XXX classes. It feels apropos :) I think Marnie is so special and so smart and clear. When she shares about the philosophy behind this class and this month's theme, it just makes me feel so grateful and fortunate that someone like this exists in health and fitness. I relate to my body so differently because of this work. I don't have to hate it or fight with it--I get to feel lucky that it can do this work and joyful to actually do it. Thank you, Marnie. A blue moon class as well! Enjoy!

Enjoy the slow, flowy and warming start to this class. Once those lights turn red, it is ON! It was a really cool challenge for mind and body to start slow and pick up pace/intensity throughout the class. And, my friends, I was a-sweatin'. Fun playlist, beautiful message and no equipment, which feels perfect as we move into summer.

I am never more amazed by what my body can do than in M/Body classes. We did some really flowy fun sequences on the ground based off the all fours posture, and I kept being thinking, "whoa! I didn't think my hips could do that!". Very short standing sequence in wide second, then it's grounded and mobilizing. Also a really excellent playlist, in my humble opinion!!

Any class with the 12 year-old me's fave remix of Spice Up Your Life and Meatloaf is a good class in my book! This wasn't super bouncy or intense. Lots of zoomed in focus on all different muscle systems, one at a time. A nice one to play with different size balls and different positions with the ball to get to know your body a little better. See Monique's badass description below for all the deets!!!

Y'all. Get ready for this one. A short warm-up followed by a standing weight series (3 sets of a sequence are a-comin'!) followed by one of the most creative and challenging plank series I have experienced in a long time. But man did I feel strong at the end of it! I switched the position of the balls that Marnie has them in during the ab series on our back, and I found that a little more empowering for me. BIG fan of the one hand on the ball series we did on all fours. I really felt my center supporting me in a whole new way. I normally have a real block around abs and arm classes because I know that's a challenge for me, but I am really grateful for this class reminding me that I CAN!! Plus super fun beats. Hard to be too bummed out when Bad Bunny is playing :)

I am SO into the way our power sculpt classes are (obviously) so strengthening AND so functional. I feel like we are doing these reps and exercises AS we are moving and making shapes with our bodies that aren't like other strength training programs I have done. It keeps my brain connected and strong and my WHOLE body in support of each movement. A bicep curl recruits the spinal muscles and the core etc. I know this is how it's supposed to be, but I just find Marnie's power sculpts revelatory. I am ready for more!! This is one fun and, as Marnie points out, super balanced.

Fun, joyful celebration of this incredibly community and all the incredible work Marnie and crew have done for us. Delightfully sweaty first third to first half of class mostly standing. Arm section is short in the beginning, but get ready for some push-ups later! Fun ab section incorporating the ball. Ending with lots of love and amazement at what these bodies can do :)
