Upbeat, celebratory Signature class grabbing our weights early (although not incorporating them again), and some beautiful building-on choreography at the barre and standing. We involve P&Ps on the mat with the ball in between our thighs and incorporated in the down-on-the-mat work, including a balancing act of laying on ball, tummy skyward, with one or both leg work and arm work. I have been feeling my lats, arms, and abs from this class and recent ones in the catalog. And are speaking to me the following day after this Signature.

HBD Ann!

But look at how much you DID do, Annie. ✨

jennyg future us may love it or may have some choice words… I’m looking forward to f’ing around and finding out! 😉

I loved all of the punches and front and side kicks incorporated, and down on the mat the “ankles together” leg motions were a blend of Physical Therapy and muscle work. My quads felt like jello during the one leg standing work, so ending each side with the optional jump was wobbly. Ball is under feet/foot, held in our hands, in the crook of our hip and abdomen, and used down on the mat to support side work and behind our back. The final cardio flushes in class are enjoyable. Future me: maybe try some of the non-bouncy parts in class with light ankle weights and pick up light hand weights for the standing punches early on in class?

A few hours later I was keenly aware of my strengthened and stretched postural back muscles. Next morning: holy glutes!!
