I loved this class. Highlights for me were the bouncy brain engaging cardio dance, the push and encouragement through the weighted series, and all the new choreo with the balls for stand and floor series. So, basically the whole class lol I appreciate the counts and the predictability they bring (thank you for always being mindful of that). I even loved the opening and closing chats; so genuine and true to Marnie and M/Body. Thank you xxoo

Do you mean the lymph chat?

I loved this one. These 10min classes are helping to rewire my thinking from perfect performance during a class to embracing practice. There is something about the shorter length that allows me to lean into that thinking, like learning tidbits. How can I practice barre today. I am excited for more opportunities to practice different skills (floor abs, P&P, ballet, gliders; so many opportunities to geek out and learn from practicing). Thank you for this series!

I don’t know why I’ve never commented, this is one of my all time favorites. It’s such a spicy class! I love the mix of stamina and strength embedded throughout. It’s a great one for when you are feeling low energy, which you wouldn’t think as it requires a lot of engagement, but it is. It demands your brain to snap to attention for the choreo and your body has no choice but to keep pace with it. It’s half stand and half floor with such a great variety of moves. The pattern of doing series twice is refreshing and calming to know what to expect.

Loved the warm up variation of plié series at the barre. I previewed class thinking the lifting leg was going to be the biggest challenge with ankle weights…oooo, I was wrong. I did not anticipate the level of fire in the standing leg. Using body weight to fatigue is right Marn 🔥

Marnie you are a genius. Such intention behind that barre work that muscles were shaking in multiple places. And that ab arm work was phenomenal. You have such a gift for creating functional effective classes like these.

I exclusively do m/body, every once in a while I take another type of class with my sisters. Yesterday we went to a heated yoga sculpt class (..if you know you know 🥵), and let me tell you, coming back to this mbody movement today felt like home. So good.

Gosh I needed this bouncy and brain engaging class. After all the prop use I’ve been seeking lately it was so refreshing and joyful to move uninhibited by weights. I forget this feeling and every time I take a cardio dance class I am lovingly reminded. I really liked the science chat before and the empowering reminder of our purpose as healthy thriving beings.

I really enjoyed this class. The new choreo felt refreshing for my mind and engaging for my body. Nailed it with the theme. All throughout class the cueing took me back to “purpose”. What’s the purpose, my purpose, what can I do to make it purposeful in the way I choose. Also, shoutout for the ball under the foot ab move, it’s a favorite of mine.

Loved the brain engagement with the props and the new choreo. Had to laugh at myself when the ball went flying out of my hands. Had to feel proud of myself after the lunge to knee lift series because those heavier ankle weights bring IT. Ending with connected abs and thinking of stretch instead of sculpt was so calming. (Even if for that final count of 8 it was more like I was fighting for my life; I tried so hard to channel the ease that Marnie cues). I really like the structured sculpt meets calm variations of cool down for these shorter classes.

I feel aligned when my brain is engaged in choreo and calm confidence arises that allows my body to harness strength. It’s a lovely place where my head is quiet(er) and I’m in the present. In this state I can embrace physical and mental challenges without doubt or fear. This serendipitous flow like way of being can be a bit evasive and tricky to nail down. The classes that I have found myself lately in that place have been slow sculpt vibe classes with novel choreo and props. Slow Sculpt 474, LI Full Body 466, Movement Ball 513, Graditude Sig 502, FB Sculpt 519. I’ll stop.

Next month’s theme…
