Did this one again because I misnumbered it in my own personal catalog to keep track of all the classes, but I'm so glad I did it because it brought pure joy to this Monday morning! I really enjoyed the music, the signature moves, the bounce, focusing on keeping my hips aligned during extension, and the ab series at the end (whew! that was a good one!). Thank you Marnie for the reminder about Richard Simmons and how he lived his life - such a good reminder in this culture of "me, me, me!"

Whew! What a great challenge! I added this one on after power sculpt /395 this morning and wow did it bring the sweat! I really felt the challenge and fire in my thighs - thank you Marnie + team for an energizing workout!

Happy belated birthday Olha!! I couldn't agree with you more - we become even more powerful as we age! Here's to another trip around the sun! So grateful you are part of this community!

No equipment workout that brings the sweat and the full body experience (definitely true to its name!). I really enjoyed the cardio dance variation, and the heels up without a barre was a balance challenge (hello wiggles!)! I felt my core activated throughout (it was particularly on fire at the end). The meditation song brought me to tears, and the statement about needing to feel our emotions to truly move forward hit home. ๐Ÿ’› Thank you Marnie for another fabulous FULL BODY class!

Admittedly, I was nervous going into this. And per other comments, my shoulders definitely felt activated, but I leaned into the fire for most of it. There were a few times when I drew back instead of leaned in, so I'm looking forward to coming back to this one and challenging myself!

I LOVED Marnie's talk at the end about what the edge of challenge looks like, how it's different on different days, and the edge of challenge brings strength. Thank you for this empowering reminder!

An instant favorite! Monique's description is fabulous. I really appreciated the form reminders in this class, which brought a deeper burn in my legs and booty. The wide second series had me shaking, and the barre work also had me dropping into the fire. The ab series near the end was a great challenge that had me digging deep, and the music throughout was just fantastic! Congrats Marnie + team on 400 lives! What an ACCOMPLISHMENT! Although I mostly watch in playback, this community is unparalleled and the energy in the class lasts long after the live is over. Thank you for your continued creativity, challenge, meditations, words of deep wisdomย โค๏ธ

I think this might be my new favorite Movement ball class!! I LOVED the diversity of combos, the movement on the floor and all over the mat, and how the ball kept my brain in a playful state. Although the moves brought challenge, it was so much more joyful with the addition of the ball! The ending meditation shifted something in me today. It helps me visualize the light in a different way, to be pulled and guided by it, in addition to shining light on others and ourselves. Thank you M for this transformational visualization.ย โค๏ธ

Fun coming back to this one a few years later as I work through the catalog! My old self was spot on - sweaty class! It was a great mix of activating arms, legs on fire, and planks. Perfect quicky workout!! I also loved the Martha Graham quote:ย "All that is important in this one moment, in movement, is to make the moment important, vital and worth living. Do not let it slip away unnoticed and unused."

Monique, I read your comment this morning before doing class and "your arms leave you for the afterlife" made me smile :) Now having finished, you hit the nail on the head!!

Wowzer!! What an ARM workout!! Abs felt activated for more of the time, except for the killer series using the weights on the ball. I took a few moments of rest throughout, so I'm looking forward to coming back to this class to improve! My arms felt fatigued at the end, in the best way - I struggled with the both weights in one hand on the ball! Which is such a great thing! Thank you Marnie for another fantastic workout!
