10/10 recommend this movement practice to anyone! There are over 500 classes, primarily in 20, 30, 45, and 60 minute durations (but a few 10 minute ones available too!). All classes include whole body activation, but there are themes of focusing on arms, legs, booty, core, neck and shoulders, pelvic floor, etc. The creator Marnie Alton incorporates barre, cardio dance, Pilates, yoga, and other modalities for this unique movement practice. The energy is encouraging, body positive (zero shaming or size focus), the music playlists are fire, and accessing classes from the comfort of my home at any time of day or night, or while traveling, is key as a working mom. Sometimes I’ll choose a relaxing stretch class at night, or an uplifting cardio dance for the morning. Sometimes classes incorporate heavier weights, yet Marnie reminds us of equipment we can substitute with what’s around our home (a chair or countertop can be our ‘stable surface’ if we don’t have a barre). My primary care physician is pleased with me doing weight-bearing exercises and I WANT to workout regularly because I feel so good, so present in my body, and so calm after class. I consistently feel that way, no matter what type of class I did and what length it was. Also the community is super supportive if you want to connect with others (available but not at all required). I’ve been doing these workout classes for 3.5 years and I’m still in love with it. I am stronger, my muscles are more defined, but best of all I feel way more present and connected and loving toward my body - I call that M/BODY Magic!
