Such a beautiful, powerful class. I used 10 lb. hand weights and 3 lb. ankle weights, and everything felt accessible. I was sweating, I was harnessing my breath for the lifts (for safety as well as maximizing the core muscle work). Lovely messages included. All standing with infusion of squats, one leg back behind us at a time (toe on the floor and then balancing up). Some side to side movement, so a little bit of space around you for movements but all low-impact (no bouncing). Thank you for this class, this platform, and this community!

So glad you’re on the mend and of course you can keep up and keep building upon this movement your body knows and craves! Happy early birthday, gorgeous girl!

Warming, presence physical-therapy type approach to an all-standing class that utilizes a chair as a support option and the movement ball in our hands. I needed to be fully present and re-connect with myself after the work day, and this was a lovely no impact opportunity.

This class brought me back to myself. Full body, embracing all the pillars of M/BODY (sculpt, stretch, sweat) and truly from my neck to my toes I am feeling pulsing aliveness after class. My heart rate was elevated in intervals throughout, my lungs breathed so deeply, and I feel unblocked like dams were released. I did this a day after I did /506 Glider class so my legs and booty (especially inner legs) are singing/shouting/yodeling but in very present way. The comments Marnie offers throughout class are incredibly helpful- I love this for anyone newer, but for myself years into consistent practice I still appreciate the form guidance, reminders, and explanations gems. Favoriting this one!

Whew, love the burn these glider classes give! Just need gliders (or paper plates on carpet, or fuzzy socks or hand towels on hardwood or other smooth flooring), hand weights, and a band or towel for upper body stretching. My legs were shaking at one point, yet surprised to feel it immediately in my arms, shoulders, and upper body. Great views of angles and explanation as we go. I am so proud of my inner thigh muscles and pelvic floor muscles that show up and show out here! Like Miranda said before me, this gives you the sensation of a Pilates class without needing the expensive Reformer machine.

Yesssss!!! My partner and I dressed up as Jack and Wendy Torrance this year too!! But when I was with my kiddo I was an axolotl, so, different vibes for different parties. You all nailed it!

I LOVE M/BODY knockout sweat classes!! This one had a really cool warm up and that set the stage for class; we begin with intention, slower, masterful, and then add on. Certainly moments of increasing speed, some serious sweat and catching of my breath, yet not a ‘fast and furious’ class. We are moving up and down, but with control, and most of class embraces a primarily standing position (with dropping lower almost knee to ground). We do hit the floor at the end to combo up and down in its fullness. Awesomely paced class and invited me to be so in tune with my body and my movement. I used my usual 5 lbs but was tiring out and dropped the weights for the last reps toward the end. The after class stretch is likewise intentionally slower and super mindful. The words at the end were a beautiful love letter of M/BODY and its impact on me. The purpose of our closing meditations to calm the nervous system and book end classes. Favorite this one as it’s a Knockout Sweat and for its flow, vibe, and words. Freaking loved it, Marnie & team; thank you!

Hi Alice! In the meantime, consider emailing them at connect@mbodybymarniealton.com and ask them to confirm if your email is on the subscription list (I bet you’ve checked junk/spam folders already to make sure it didn’t land there accidentally). ❤️
