Wonderful class for after work, as it did not require a ton of go-go-go energy, but kept my focus, brought the warmth, offered the movement and stretch I craved, and felt so good! Class was over before I was ready for it (but these short classes meant I could get this in while dinner was in the oven). 

Oh. My.

Internal curse words, mindful connection with breath, and great use of ball for support and balance. I added in piking up in the planks section as the fire was burning, so when I return can future me lessen those add-on pikes and try to stay in the flow of knee dips and push-up choreo? It's ok if I don't but it would be badass if I did.

Simple, powerful, booty-full quickie class.

Quick, effective, perfect with 5 lb. weights for me. These classes are such wonderful add-ons but could be wonderful as a quickie stand alone class.

Ugh, so good! Heart rate accelerated, lungs inhaling deeply, warm and glistening skin, and our flow of warm up and cool down included, everything still purposeful but shortened to roughly 10 minutes. Modification options still identified by Marnie. This workout did not include equipment, but when I return I can pick up hand weights for the punches. 

So lovely to return to, with 5 lb. hand weights and the Movement ball for under our feet at the barre (including facing away from the barre, standing in releve on the ball, with one leg dancing and a focus on strong posture, so doing this in front of the mirror helps me). Sweaty 30 minutes!

I tend to crave a grounded sweat class around Earth Day, and on this rainy April morning I welcomed the quiet intensity of this class. If your wrists are not sore, please bring yourself close to Momma Earth and feel the shared power.
