A floor flow class that varies from many of our others, come here for a different floor flow. Choreography invites exploration of wrist placement on the floor (finger tips traditionally face forward away from us but we can try fingertips facing away from our sides or fingers facing back toward our body). We incorporate some standing (low/squatting options) into the flow bringing us up and back down to the floor). I love a movement ball balance under the knee and it works the front of my hips and upper thighs so uniquely. This floor flow does not incorporate planks and pushups, and while we have some quick changes it is not bouncy and cardio, but had me flushed. Great way to build energy for your day. Toward the end when we are working on our second and final set Marnie says we don't have to do it again and M/BODY mantras are so embedded within me after years of practice that I said (to no one) "we GET to do this!"Â
Edit To Add: the next day my legs felt so wonderfully stretched from the elongation moves we did, but the muscle activation in my obliques and around the entire sides of my core and lower back snuck up on me!

Yesssss I LOVE the sass, empowerment, and hip openers of XXX classes! This class kept up the tempo, felt like 2/3 standing, had powerful booty barre sequences, and brought the ongoing heat with the floor series with a lot of holds in the core work. Warm, awoken, and worked is how I felt after this class!
