M/BODY By Marnie Alton

I found Marnie 3 years ago on YouTube when I was 6 months postpartum. I loved her workout so much I googled her name and found M/BODY, subscribed and have never looked back. I’ve become much stronger and more flexible, yes. But what keeps me coming back the most is how this movement calms my anxiety. It brings me to the present moment and connects me kindly to my body (theres no negative body talk or diet talk here). Somedays the workouts feel like a sleepover dance party with your favorite music. Somedays it cracks your heart open and you’ll breathe out your worries and cry big tears on the mat. When I feel powerless or discouraged I know I can pick one of my favorite classes and feel absolutely championed and empowered within one hour. And on top of all this, the people who are part of the m/body community will welcome you with open arms. You can engage with the community as much or as little as you like, but I promise you’ll only be met with kindness here. You’ll often hear of people celebrating their 2nd, 3rd, 4th anniversary of using this platform - and that longevity in itself speaks to the quality of what you’ll find on this app 🤍

Dear Marnie, I’ve wanted to write this for a long time, but I’ve hesitated because I wasn’t sure how to put into words everything I feel. Even now, I’m not sure this will truly capture the depth of my gratitude. When I joined M/Body in December 2020, I was searching for a workout that wouldn’t bore me, but I found something far more profound. At the time, I was struggling—not just physically but emotionally, too. My marriage was in a difficult place, and I wasn’t happy with myself or my life. I felt stuck. Through your classes, your positive affirmations, and the incredible energy you share, you gave me the tools to start truly loving myself. When I attended the Italy retreat for the first time, it clicked: I couldn’t be happy in my marriage if I wasn’t happy with myself. I couldn’t fully love my spouse if I didn’t first love myself. That realization was heavy, but it was also the truth I needed. Because of you, I found the strength to work on myself, to heal, and to create boundaries that protect my joy and peace. Now, I’m not just a better wife, but a present and engaged mom, and a strong nurse manager who knows her worth. You’ve also helped me manage my anxiety by reminding me that it will all be okay—something I carry with me every day. One of the most life-changing shifts for me has been separating my health from my physical appearance. For so long, I chased an ideal of perfection, equating thinness with happiness. But through M/Body, I’ve learned to celebrate what my body can do rather than how it looks. For the first time, I love and appreciate my body for all it gives me, and I feel truly at peace with myself. Even now, as my job situation is uncertain, I feel calm because I trust that the universe has something wonderful in store for me. That mindset, that peace—it’s all because of you. Marnie, you’ve created a platform where open-hearted, loving people can come together to feel safe, seen, and adored. You are humble, and I know you may not fully realize the profound impact you have, but I hope you know you’ve changed my life. I cannot thank you enough or give enough back to you to truly express how much you mean to me. With all my love and gratitude, Liisa 💝 “Lil J”

Yeah dude. It’s like that. My friend got me into this by saying she “feels like a million bucks” after every class. 💯accurate.

The community is authentic and sweet, workouts are plentiful and diverse and Marnie’s energy, kindness, validation and creativity truly serve each of us individually and collectively well. “Life doesn’t end at your ankles!” My bare feet have never been happier.

I have been working out with Marnie and her band of people for a year and a half. I love her messages, her zeal and her exercises! So many parts of my body have shifted to give me better posture, balance and strength. It is an overall body and mind and spirit healing and aligning. I come to the mat each day with so many other people throughout the world to workout with Marnie. 💙

Marnie’s style is a game-changer for body, mind and soul! Her approach to movement is holistic and healing, strengthening and soulful ❤️ i am not kidding when I say that every class evokes something new within my body and my mind, meaning I am challenged, I am reminded, humbled, and encouraged to re-wire what is within. So grateful for this movement and her heart-felt approach in every single class 👏🏽her message is clear: be the change you want to see in the world ✊🏽❤️

I’ve been doing Marnie for 4 yrs now and I am continuously amazed how much balance, mental stability and overall fitness this workout brings. I am 43 yrs old and I don’t think I can ever quit Marnie!

Nothing like it. No one like her. The absolute best. It WORKS.

Marnie has cultivated a community and platform of beautiful supportive individuals where everyone is cheering eachother on. I definitely love having the support of others in my workout (mind/body/spirit) journey. I love that this practice incorporates yoga, dance, pilates, kickboxing, ballet, barre, stretching, with health and wellness conversations on the regular with 2 live online classes a week you can do from home or anywhere in addition to a catalog of classes to choose from to fit your schedule. I have made excellent friends (some I’ve met and some who I haven’t met) We all have eachother’s backs in this program! It’s a solid place to come to for anyone needing tools and encouragement to understanding how your body works and doing the best you can do for your body/mind/spirit!

I’ve never been so excited everyday to do workouts, but since I started this videos my life has changed!! I’ve had 4 abdominal surgeries and zero pelvic strength. I couldn’t do one crunch because it felt like my abdomen was going to splint. This workouts help me gained the strength, flexibility and stretch I needed. I’m only one month through the videos and I feel strong and confident. I loooove the meditations at the end. This has transformed my mental and physical health in a way I never thought possible. I would recommend for everyone!! She’s amazing and my idol!! I love her!!! Everyone deserves to live and experience her energy. ✨
