Salt water (tears, sweat) heals… so come to this class when you are ready to pair movement with tears, to be present with the weight of grief and be reminded of the encompassing love that wraps around you and connected you with the one you loved. Marnie is our warrior who is visibly working hard to remind us of the point of loving even when the loss makes it heavy to breathe. Movement-wise this class brings traditional Signature moves and class sequence of a 60-Signature in a simple but impactful way. I think it was Maggi K who suggested during the Live to call the fun and messy move “The Bourbon” (where we are down on the mat in tabletop position and doing a one leg lift/kick sequence that ends with us down on the mat on our other glutey/hip with leg extended). That move is messy at first, it will bring a smile to you, and you’ll need a good pat afterward for your efforts. While that part required an active brain, much of the class is simple enough to focus on how your body feels in the here and now and moving with the playlist (dedicated to Bourbon and the love that fur baby brought with him most especially to Marniemom). Goodness knows I have cried on the mat over the years, and this is a great class when you want to feel your body and feel your feelings. Sending all the love to Marnie and Katelyn who are individually handling a LOT and collectively showed up for this Live.

Echoing others on this all-standing barre sculpt class, where those ankle weights we can have on from the very start of class add some serious burn to the legs, which are already feeling it. Holding our posture works our core and those leg lifts work the booty. I did this in an early evening time, which was perfect to release some stress of the day but also welcome the calm for the night ahead.
