Lauren Poole I've been thinking about what Marnie said about your example in the studio, of knowing your body so well you knew what weights you needed for which exercises. That image/concept has been seared into my brain since then. The idea of being so tuned in to yourself and not comparing yourself to others in the class. I took a yoga class this morning, and that was part of my intention for class: focus on my body and be present and engaged in every single movement. It felt so good! Marnie, thank you for sharing that anecdote about LP. I has made more of an impact than you know!

A beautiful flow of an arm dance. I put my arms down a few times, so I want to come back to this one in the future and work on staying engaged the whole time!

So powerful! Thank you for sharing Emily ❤️ I can totally relate to the nice girl attitude/tendencies - this reminds me to really feel and let it out!

Lovely little barre sculpt! All standing with some ball work that felt great on the hips and activating arm work (next time, I need to go 5 lbs instead of 3! My most favorite part was a few of the words Marnie interwove:

1. What stress is stealing your strength?

2. The meditation about growth, how right before you elevate/go to the next level, everything that no longer aligns starts to crumble. So if you feel like things are falling apart, trust that it's making space for more light to enter.

3. A comment to Sami & Jill about how they can support one another through a certain point in the workout and I just loved that! Speaks to not just Sami and Jill, but how can we show up for and support one another?

Oh my gosh what a JOYful workout!! My first signature 60 in awhile since moving and getting settled into my new routine and boy did it feel fantastic! The playlist had me dancing the whole way through. Booty was activated, but the weighted abs at the end were killer!! Definitely need to come back to them to work on getting through the whole thing without stopping! 

Beautiful, stretchy flow. Not much heat & lots of lovely hip stretches via down dog. Super accessible and perfect when you want to be stretched and calm your nervous system without impact. Thank you Marnie!

Fun new creative choreography with the ball! Hips get stretched out, and legs/balance is challenged on the ball throughout class - in the beginning the thighs feel the fire, and the booty series on the floor really brought my focus to my core and stabilizing muscles. It was such a great challenge that I want to come back to because I came out a few times. Lovely ending stretch that my body thanked me for. And I loved learning about the importance of the stretch with the ball under our shoulder blades! Going to start incorporating that into my days!

Dana this is so beautifully said!! Trusting our bodies' innate wisdom ❤️ A good reminder for me today. 

Omg YES! It brought me right back to this movie called "Coda" where I first heard the song. Absolutely beautiful!! 

These 30 minutes FLEW by! Great use of weights, with some lunge work, and then floor work with the added weight and a bit of side work.
