Hmm, I will let Marnie/a professional answer this for real!..but can’t not try to help.

I am remembering cues from class to focus on how much or if you are leaning forward either by leaning on the barre or hunching or leaning forward. I would try putting your focus on placement of your pelvis in the neutral spine position without that over or under tuck that Marnie talks about, and leaning back more to take weight away from being over the knee. Really harnessing that upper body posture.

It makes sense to me too to try putting more weight in the heel and trying flat feet or releve. Our bodies are all unique!

Delany n Pai well then, sounds like an automatic purchase!

Delany! Hi sunshine! I follow the author’s IG account and screenshot his posts often. How is the actual book?!

Lauren!! Hi!!So glad you posted; you,and the 5 years you have committed to health and whole being wellness, deserve to be celebrated.

🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳 Happiest Marnieversary to you!!

This is a wide second quad burner of a class! It really supports tuning into your thoughts (because you can and will do it and be okay), and also tunes you into focusing on your specific form and use of props, placement of toes, heel, tuck all of it! to see what increases fire, activates supporting muscles, and alleviates anything that feels overburdened moment to moment, if that is your experience. I appreciated the prop use for upper and lower body and varying choreo to support this mental engagement.

Hi! I attached an Easier Days playlist of some random 30s and 20s I’ve come across that I have found gentler. I also tend to gravitate to the 30-45 Grounded Sweat classes and Floor Flows on those days I need less impact and less burn me alive fire 😉As you have said it is subjective of course!

Mayo! This is amazing and adorable!! Thank you for sharing. I can identify with the hesitancy to share photos and videos, and am so glad you did 🥰

Mayo (mah-yo) of course!! Correct, she uses Bala and I find that I couldn’t tighten them enough (I only tried in store on my wrists though!),but also the price point is high. I am attaching a picture from Amazon for visuals :)

The top one is like the Bala brand and may not tighten enough. The bottom one is the kind that I find works better for me. I don’t have that specific brand, mine were from a coworker who didn’t want them so free for me.

I could not favorite this class fast enough. Different sequencing for cardio dance and sight variations kept my brain on point and my mind seeking the why and the what feels good and what do I need. I especially loved the NEW (eee 🤩) dynamic slower combos in legs/glutes and abs. I am someone who pushes (too) hard/fast/more in effort to achieve. I miss so much with this mentality, and it’s quite berating to my overall being. I have been working so hard to rewire this tendency with this gem of a platform. This class is truly balance in motion. It allows me to allow myself to slow down and be in the movement with myself without a performance focus.

What an amazing class! It was full body and brain engaging and invigorating to use the 3 props. So unique and effective, absolute opposite of boring. Thank you Marnie!!
