Celebrating my 5-year Marniversary this week, and the 555 class felt so powerful! I haven’t posted in this channel before but want to pop in to say how grateful I am for m/body and this community. These classes have really supported me in my healing journey over the past five years, getting me through a super painful divorce, a major career transition, a move, and the scary transition of learning how to live on my own again for the first time in 12 years. I ended so many classes with a healthy release of tears during Marnie’s closing meditations.

This is also the first workout that has unlocked the secrets to healing my chronic hip and low back pain, which started when I was 14. I’ve been to numerous medical professionals and tried countless exercise methods, including yoga, and this is the first workout that has strengthened my core and hips for healing and taught me how to attune to the micro-movements of my body. Whenever I learn about new physical therapy moves for my hips or critical exercises for longevity, I realize that my body already knows them because they are incorporated into Marnie’s workouts. I’m happier and healthier than ever, and I am so so grateful to Marnie and everyone else here who makes this community what it is. The energy here is just pure healing magic. 🙏🏻🥹❤️
