Hi Marnie/M/BODY team! Just for clarification and hip flexor safety and all that, is the recommendation to put ankle weights on when we first go to the barre for parallel in red then wide second for popcorn feet as I call them lol OR is it when we go to the barre for the dynamic stand to floor combo then remain on the floor?

Should we take them off before on your back abs? Thank youuuu

Hi Susie! I love this idea! I am on the other side of the country and quite northern (Maine), or I’d be there!

Ali!! This is incredible!! While I understand the pull to the challenge (and the must/complusive/have to/guilt blah, blah, blah, hi it’s me) I cannot say enough that I need you to see it, own it, and let it go. You are moving your body. You are creating your own ultra challenge. You are doing enough. You are enough. Now go badass warrior the shit out of your half marathon training. So proud of you. 😘💛

Congratulations Lissi! My son is turning 10yo old this week, my memory is fainter on specifics, but I do know that first trimester was exhausting and am sending love. Energy and aches and all of the things ebb and flow and vary throughout, the symptoms you’re likely experiencing now will improve!

I have no movement advice from experience, I found movement postpartum and then M/BODY just 3yrs ago. I wish I had M/BODY before and during pregnancy! It’s such an incredible full body strengthening program, perfect for preparing the body for pregnancy and supporting it after (as Jesse said, non expert here, but full M/BODY believer!) .

Jesse gave the best advice and I hope you take in every word, she couldn’t have said it better.

Molly Mandell of course!!! And that means I get Ginger snuggles and we get a garage workout with your fancy BIG screen Marnie 🙌🤩

Top places are NYC, Austin TX, LA, and Canada!

What an incredible accomplishment Nora!! I’m in awe.

Nina-Nike Velander and Molly Mandell ahhhh 🥰!! I will do my very best to make this happen. Life is a bit chaotic, but I am putting it in my calendar and will try very hard to make it.

Oh my gosh, Nina-Nike Velander and Molly Mandell I want to crash this get together so badly!! We’re at the level of friendship where I can invite myself, right Molls? 🤷‍♀️🤣

I would absolutely love to meet you Nina!!

Engaging my senses in a way that feels intuitive to the type of grounding I need - cold air outside, splash of water to the face, ice cube on wrists. Sitting in the sun with my face up, drinking something warm, an Epsom bath. Lavendar on my wrists and soles of feet. Music to match the mood, energize the mood, or calm the feeling, sitting by moving water that sounds like white noise. Intentionally dropping my shoulders, unclenching my fists and shaking my hands. Bouncing, shaking, tapping, especially my legs and feet.
