Echoing those before me: beautiful ballet inspired class. All standing, uses one larger weight (I held both of my 3 lb. weights in one hand), and is a wonderful stretch barre class. Low impact, graceful movements that also has a few balance checks.

Fabulous 60-minute Signature with some wonderful focal points on pecs, obliques, and hamstring and glutes. Uses all equipment and blends standing, barre work, and down on the mat. It was a special challenge doing work on one knee while leaning on the barre- I will come back to continue working on form. Celebrating a Challenge is always a good time, and this class honors Yvonne’s M/BODY Anniversary ❤️3❤️ (which makes me wonder if it’s Kady’s as well?)

No equipment workout was perfect for traveling to the beach! I just needed to move around to provide some kicking space and leg extensions. It was bouncy class, kept my heart rate up, and felt great!

Cheers to all during endings, beginnings, and rerouting of this wild time.
Summer of Strong was my third M/BODY Challenge- and I moved classes around, substituted, and didn’t complete the #s I set for myself:
goal: at least 45 classes and all 60 wellness activities
vs.
reality: 38 classes and 54 wellness activities

It’s been such a busy, transitional time. My takeaways are I feel better and do better when I get to the mat more consistently (any time of day or evening/night); the numerous benefits of sleep make it worth the effort to prioritize; I am inspired to find my new rythym of re-committing to consistency with my new schedule.

Amazing playlist (posted on Marnie Alton’s profile on Spotify) to go with slightly-slower-but-not-too-slow choreo combinations. Class stays easily low impact and has a great flow!

Hi everyone! It’s been a busy time for many of us (anyone else managing a lot of transitions this year/season?). I cannot express enough gratitude for anchoring into time on the mat, at the barre, and connecting with others I’ve met through M/BODY (especially during this past year). Friendly reminder if you need some sense of community and connection, scroll through these posts! Happy Summer of Strong to those in the Challenge and those creating their own rhythm. I’ve been board hopping and class substituting more than ever this time around, with a lot of classes to catch up on in these last 12 days, but still happy for the inspo! Cheering you each on as you navigate the upcoming month 🩵

Ohh fun and quick switch ups of sequences with weights starting early on. Sculpty sweat with some optional jumps but not as bouncy as sweat classes can be.

Had a chance to catch up on this standing class- yes it’s core (yes you can do it while cramping), but it’s also legs and arms and it felt wonderful after a day of travel! 100% all standing until ending class reverence on the floor, and all low impact (zero jumps, just optional light bounce in warmup), and uses handweights but could be done without.

Echoing Kelsey and Nicole: whew the glute work- so good! The class moves quickly for 60 minutes.
