Haha!! Debora Watkins 😂

This was absolute bliss. I have not had an experience like this with a stretch class before, although goodness I’ve tried. The movements, the music, the cueing, and the words of support in the closing meditation; I didn’t know how much I needed it holistically. I very much relate to being challenged by slowing down and allowing calm smooth movements to be enough. Today I was able to and it felt so good.

One of my favorite themes (I love all the theme classes honestly). I do think we need another oldies class..

My, I’m trying to control myself, list:

Eternal Flame - The Bangles

New Order - Bizarre Love Triangle

Run Around - Blues Traveler

Faith - George Michael

Nothings Gonna Stop us - Starship

This is such a unique flowy P&P class! Please don’t let the title scare you. Marnie is an absolute master at weaving in supportive stretches and releases as well as demonstrating modifications. This one was almost all plank dances with very few pushups and some serious bicep burn (for me anyhow!). Loved the incorporation of side planks, baby bear planks (as I call them haha) and movements from up to down for forearms.

This class HITS. True full body with back to back challenges that are still a push 4 years later. So satisfying in all the ways.

I came back to this class this morning in need of some gentleness mixed with fire. This class delivers this in such a supportive and balanced way. I highly recommend it for anyone seeking stretch for sore or tight muscles. There are series with moments of sculpt built in and a heart pumping cardio dance to close, but it is not to fatigue or overburdening.

All violet and brain engaging, this brings different unique challenges as others have mentioned to let yourself move/be. It’s like a 45 Sig with lunge variations meets a bouncy cardio dance. I especially liked the two back to back series that included leg going back in the air (the weighted lunges then the new fun dancey one).

Wow, that new lunge series with the ball between the leg and abdomen was straight power building fire. I needed that thought reframing cue that Monique mentioned below. The floor flow with the 2 balls was grounding and fun, more please :) I also really liked some of the new female featured artists on the playlist, great vibe.

I came back to this class today and forgot how it truly is full of all the things! Cardio burst feelings (snap jumps and kick boxing), true arm sculpt (oh hi 5lbs), flowy plank dance, and elegant abs. Can’t forget sass, fun and feminine energy/mama love too. So good.

Debora Watkins I read this comment and then today on the way to work I also caught myself clenching the wheel and deep breathed it out with thoughts of you and the baby 😂
