This one felt like a classic signature with a traditional warm-up (and very fun choreo) and a barre series that had my legs shaking. Planks and abs are also VERY warming with familiar moves and new sequences to keep you on your toes...or hands, as the case may be! I am so glad I was present for the live because it kept me moving without second-guessing myself too much. Like Monique, my glutes, triceps and obliques are sore today. Sweaty, strong and very sweet celebration of a very special platform/community/instructor. Save this one for the day you need a boost or want to feel like a badass :)

This was grounding and powerful in the most subtle, deep way. I did have a little bit of a sheen at the end of this one! Grounded practice that moved us front, back and side-to-side with options for one or both movement balls in several moments. I followed this up with our pelvic floor practice from last year. This work feels revolutionary as it relates to all our core work. It will certainly change the way I approach any of the ab exercises we do in other sessions. I'll come back to this as a reminder!

Class description/comment queen strikes again!!! Thank you, Monique

All standing, no impact, super balletic and got me sweating. This is a really fun ooey gooey one that I got to use my mini ball on for the first time! Wahoo! Even though I have larger feet, this mini ball feels really good. I'm hoping I'll learn more about the idea that just because I CAN use the full-size ball doesn't mean I HAVE to. And that maybe I'll even get stronger so that the next time I'm on the big ball, I'll feel different. I REALLY needed to hear that meditation, and I very grateful to hear that message. Today and always. 

I'm so glad Marnie mentioned the very even, balanced BPMs of this class because I felt so embodied and so "within myself" (if that makes sense) during this class. There was new choreo and familiar choreo, half on our feet, half on the floor, all body parts equally attended to. I don't know how else to describe this class but perfectly balanced. I got sweaty but I never felt out of control or like I needed to stop. There was joy and so much beautiful messaging from Marnie throughout. Really really lovely 

Gosh, this class is so many good things. Some light bouncing options about 1/2 way through, but otherwise a strong and grounded class that brings posture and arm joy! I used 5 lbs for the whole class but am now curious if I could have gone up to my 8s for that final kneeling series. SO excited for this month's theme. HUGE HAPPY BIRTHDAY to Kady Riley who deserves all the celebration and sending enormous love and healing radiance to Jenny Groener with a reminder that she (and none of us) is not alone ❤️

This lovely class feels like an intermediate yoga class or an extra slow sculpt to me. Moments of stretch are preempted by static lunges and slow plies as well as some open-position hip series movements down on all fours. I still got a little dewy with this one! And I walked away with warmer and more open hips :)
