Music, Movement and Mindfulness.

Movement and music are the external things driving the internal changes.  All workouts we do are fueled by music: music guides, motivates and inspires. You'll always have music at the core of your workout when you join an M-Powered Fitness class.

Mindfulness ("the practice of maintaining a nonjudgmental state of heightened or complete awareness of one's thoughts, emotions, or experiences on a moment-to-moment basis.") is the internal driving the external forward. It is personal and our individual understanding of it transforms over time. When we are mindful and accepting of who we are and how we are currently showing up in our health and fitness journey the experience is one of ease, endurance and trust.

Yes, you can't out-exercise a bad diet. Including a nutrition plan doesn't have to be complicated but if you want to lose weight and feel strong then it needs to be included. This can be as simple as doing one of our monthly challenges and learning basic nutrition info, to signing up for health and fitness mentorship, or anywhere in between. Heck, there's even enough info in the NUTRITION tab to help out.
