Low impact, booty burning class that feels so connecting (community, sisterhood) again and again.

Great class description, M/BODY Team! Totally standing, optional weights (I used 5 lb. hand weights) and a pace that accelerates and maintains the heart rate. Detoxing movements incorporated and just need space around you for leg and arm movements to each side and front/back of you.

Revisited this one today, and it serves all of the shaking muscles and sweat and accelerated heart rate with all of those supportive and encouraging messages from start through final meditation.

My renewal is during the summer, but a quick email to connect@mbodybymarniealton.com locked in that discounted rate and it is such a fabulous gift of health and well-being to self in the winter and the summer. The annual membership is a great deal (especially with that clutch discount) and it inspires me whenever I’m questioning my motivation to workout- the more classes I do the more ‘bang for my buck’, in addition to knowing I will physically and mentally feel better compared to not getting to the mat at all. Thank you for this amazing promo discount and I highly suggest people take advantage before the end of December!

This floor flow was warming, stretching, and strengthening. Whole body activation while remaining low to Mama Earth; I was feeling my arms and shoulders, my obliques and core, and my glutes and legs. Ankle weights bring the added challenge in a booty-ful way. Accessible, moves quickly, and felt great for mid-day but this would be a wonderful way to build up and greet the day in the morning as well. 

So warming and invigorating, even when baby it's cold outside. All standing and upright, with optional hand weights for the last few minutes (yes please!). Each song has a new dance sequence. We are going side to side, left and right, with some forward knee lifts and  foot tap behind us, but super easy for small space and can be no equipment for on the go.

Calming and comforting, especially if feeling some winter blues, overstimulation, or if returning to the mat after something that knocked you down and you need to rise back up slowly and gently.

Ankle weights sounds so challenging! I might play around with that (if I’m feeling bold and brave). Great suggestion, Rylee!

Immediately loved and favoriting. It felt a little different than our previous Movement ball classes; the start and version of warmup was excellent and within a few minutes I realized the beauty of trusting Marnie and the choreography of M/BODY with my body- how safe, considerate, and inviting it is to be here on the mat. I cannot express how much that means to feel that way. With my larger foot size I only needed the regular size Movement ball for the entire class (we have it in our hands, but we also have it tucked against our hip/tummy while standing, under foot/feet, and under a knee and under a hand). Outside there was snow and yet inside doing this class I considered opening the window due to how warm and sweaty I was getting. It gave me a full body stretch I desperately needed (including for my back), and the leg extensions and booty work was amazing. I was not expecting to feel my arms as much as I did but from the end of class well into the next day I am acutely aware of the stretch and strength from this class. This playlist was glorious… The Airborne Toxic Event to Beyoncé with The Chicks to Toni Braxton to Craig Mack and Biggie... I was all smiles (with a few “whew!” during the burn). Favoriting and cannot wait to return!

This is also a Happy Marniversary to Kady class, which adds to how much I love it!

The beginning chat of class is super helpful for form reminders, visual examples, as well as mindset. I recommend not skipping the pre-workout section of this video. Sweaty class from anaerobic movement AND some optional jumps. Leg shaking, posture engaged class that works your dancer’s dent (gluteus medius) and upper booty/lower back muscles that you will be feeling for a day or two afterward. Loved the instrumental versions of familiar pop songs for our style of M/BODY badass ballerina. Gliders were fabulous, but you can do this class with just a stable surface.
