This was a quick class that builds warmth and heat. The series flows quickly and beautifully, beginning in standing warm-up (wide second and then lunge kicks) and the majority of class is on the mat. Certainly felt this in my hips, but this also felt great on my legs and glutes from other classes recently.

This class does not have jumps and not even a lot of pulses, so it's great for when you need to pull into strength and endurance, but not jumpy, bouncy aerobic cardio. I was warm, sweating at times, and I am so damn proud that I kept my arms up and kept weights in my hands, but as I did this with a friend I was reminding them they can always drop the weights and continue the arm dance. I am grateful Marnie's choreography switches so often so we can work through 30 minutes of straight arms and it is accessible and doable and engaging the entire time. Holding my core tight and strong throughout felt like it's own workout embedded in a workout. As mentioned below, this incorporates lower body work and movement, so it is arm centric but still works the whole body. Toward the end we are on our knees, so consider having extra padding nearby if you need for comfort. Â
