The choreography provided such a deep fire in the glutes, hips and abs! I kept Marnie’s words from other classes about “being fueled by the fire not consumed by it.” I love work on all fours and yet I had to tell myself to keep going as the challenge was real! I am favoriting this and will be back to it. How do we get such an increased heart rate and sweat and burn with minimal jumping and no weights?? *Marnie Magic*

Great suggestions on authors and podcasts! Yes these are definitely part of my arsenal to continue shifting my thoughts and practice what I preach. It’s enlightening and validating.

(2/2) So we all can fall prey to that comparison/lacking/not enough BS. If you have the time/energy, consider exploring where those opinions originated from. What we hear growing up becomes our framework, but that’s not always accurate or serving. A critical caregiver? Preferences of someone we liked but crush was not mutual? Glossy magazines? Feeling bad about things we cannot change does nothing for us, so minding the energy expense without receiving may help motivate the practice of shifting. Embracing what your body can do for you; my broad shoulders can carry things. My small boobs still fed my baby. It’s functional.repeatedly practice positive self-talk as corny as that is until it becomes something you can own. And find your village of loving support- like this beautiful global fam that appreciates you’re here and sharing something vulnerable. We can chat more anytime if that feels good for you. 🖤

(1/2) I love Emily’s comment before me. I agree; this is a life-long process for many of us. Continuing to listen to Marnie’s approach of ‘don’t make it look like me, make it look like you’ and focusing on movement/exercise as something for you and your well-being and strength and consider shifting away from fitting into a certain size or view of what is attractive. There are SO many things we simply cannot change, like our overall size thay we’re built to be, our broad shoulders (same girl, same). Noticing others and admiring what looks nice for them but intentionally stopping the thought when it continues to comparison and then finding ourselves lacking. I work in mental health and even those who possess natural beauty or talents still struggle.

I LOVE the xxx classes! This was a lot of hip opening and stretching, which feels great after sitting at work and for emotional release. The cool down stretches fooled me- nope we still have ab work, class is not yet over. Cheers to the global fam who had their mommas joining them for this class- I know my mom would be adding some serious jazz hands 😂❤️

Bright smiles all around! Your energy is picked up by your little ones. Thank you for the class recommendation- I’m always interested to know what others are digging.

Same to you! Congrats on getting in a workout on a Monday morning- hope that feeling of accomplishment, strength, and steadiness in your own stays with you all day 🖤
