A moment of appreciation for the <20 classes!

I’ve always loved the <20 classes for hectic days or days when I don’t feel super motivated, but I’m even more appreciative of these classes with my baby boy! Right now he’ll only nap solo for exactly 28 minutes 😂but it’s not stopping me from getting on that mat!

I can hit play on a 20 minute class and love that I can get a warm up, sweat, stretch, and grounding in just 20 minutes and I feel like I got a great workout in!

Thank you Marnie as always for sharing your gift with us, having this time just completely changes how I approach the day and I’m so thankful I don’t have to lose it! You have no idea how much you’ve helped carry me through the last (almost!!!) 6 years!

First class back after giving birth to my sweet baby boy, Aaron! 💙

I’m about 8 weeks postpartum and even though I’ve been sooooo ready to get back to my M/body for the last few weeks it’s been hard to find the time, even why baby boy sleeps, I want to hold him and soak up all the baby snuggles!

Tonight I just got the urge (yes at almost midnight my sleep schedule is all sorts of crazy right now! 😂) that I needed some Marnie and did the latest restore class and loved every second of it! This was the perfect class to return to! It felt so good to move my body, but honestly so strange to do it alone for the first time in several months! I miss the kicks and hiccups I felt daily, but love that I can run over and snuggle him whenever I want now, which I did post class! 🥰

I can’t explain how happy I am to be back on the mat, but I’m beginning with the intention that I’m not “bouncing back” I’m not who I was before and I’m not trying to get back to her, instead, I’m ready to get back into movement to honor this new body that carried life and continues to carry me. My intention is to tend to it with care, to grow strong, and to nurture myself so I can show up fully for my family. 💜

I don’t think I would be able to give myself this gift of taking care of myself like this had I not had 5 years of Marnie’s encouragement!
