Short class with so much detoxifying center line twists, legs up and down in standing formations, and some moments of bringing us down to the mat and back up again. I went with 5 lb. hand weights but in hindsight I was losing my balance on the mat when lifting same side leg and arm and future me can switch to 3 lbs. if that happens again so I can stabilize more. This is the one with the cool down stretch in a pike-plank combo.

Anaerobic class that felt 'balletic dancer's legs' to me, with upper body primarily through arm movement that compliments lower body movement. Used a barre and gliders on carpet (could be fuzzy socks on a hard floor or paper plates on carpet). Warming but not sweaty, slow flow, instrumental music behind us.

All standing, use of hand weights (two weight levels optional, beginning with lighter and then picking up slightly heavier, I did 3 lbs and then 5 lbs hand weights). Ankle weights optional, which I added. Even warmup does not involve optional jumps, so if you can vibrate/run in place with them on then they can be on from the very start. The cool-down stretches (standing of course) were still creating warmth and I could feel the heat from my skin. This felt mindfully connected, not too intense, but very intentional/attentional for me. 

Also this class: HBD Elizabeth!

Feels like a Stretch Flow partnered a Healing Hips for warming flowy goodness.

I never regret a M/BODY class. I wasn't "feeling it" getting to the mat, but my goodness this is always what I need. Playlist continues to hit the spot, and the class works the full body despite all standing except abs on the mat for the final 3 minutes. I love it here ♥️
