GIVE MEANING TO THE MOVEMENT
  • GMttM | Let Yourself Free

    We are heating things up with this sexy, playful tune! We get right into it and set the tone to not take ourselves too seriously.

  • GMttM | Calm Down

    I’ve timestamped some helpful “twerk-torial” and booty shakin’ tips in our Give Meaning to the Movement video.
    This sexy song takes us into the heat of summer. We have the opportunity to move in solidarity with the Iranian girls arrested for dancing to Calm Down on TikTok without hijabs (the sour...

  • GMttM | No Bad Days

    Ooooooooooh boy! Fun and lighthearted, but keeps you moving! It's not the HIGHEST cardio, but she gets your heart pumping!

  • Give Meaning to the Movement | Perfect To Me

    **Please note that this is the Pink Panda All Day Long Remix. The original song is MUCH slower!**
    Even though this song is a few years old, I hadn't heard it before and the lyrics really spoke to me. I loved the easy peezy summer breezy vibe taking us into summer. I especially love this song pair...

  • GMttM Call On Me

    Ramping up the bold and sexy vibes with this one. Depending on your playlist this could possibly work as a Transition Down as well.

  • GMttM | Superbloom

    The dancefloor is your garden, your mountaintop, your seaside, or whatever place you choose to bloom! Lift your heart up to the sun, open those glorious petals and shine.

  • GMttM | I Just Came To Dance

    Start ramping up the sexy sassy vibes!

  • GMttM | Triumph

    The strong drum beat of this song helps us get after the moves! We have the opportunity to play with levels during the “arm-ography” section and tap into a moving meditation that is grounded and powerful.

  • GMttM | Trustfall by Pink

    An inspirational song with some great glute and core work! Warning: if you haven't done curtsy lunges in a while, you will be sore. ;)

  • GMttM | No Sweat

    Fun short warm up. Gets the body awake and energized for the dance party.

  • GMttM- Breathing

    A beautiful three and a half minutes with lots of opportunities for deep breaths and soaking up all of the work we did in class.

  • GMttM Can't tame her

    A sassy and fun cardio track. The verse should give you a minute to breathe so that you can go all out in the chorus and own that dancefloor.

  • GMttM | I love me

    Still a bit of cardio in there, but bringing us down to the end of our playlist. This song is a self-love and strength symphony! This song is so beautifully strong, but also acknowledges the struggles of self-doubt that we all face. I hope you dedicate this song to yourself every single time you ...

  • GMttM- Revolution

    “Welcome to my revolution!” This cardio track comes with a side of conditioning and catharsis. The emotional intensity, along with jumping, kicks and punching, places it later in the cardio section of your playlist.

  • GMttM | See Me Now

    Love the driving beat in this one!! This one has us feeling ourselves and getting pumped for the upcoming cardio section!

  • GMttM Gimme Feb 24

    Get your waist and hips moving like the spin cycle in a washing machine. We’re heading into sexy territory where we will unabashedly own the lyrics (and movement) to “Gimme what I want”.

  • GMttM | Weapons by Ava Max

    You can play with the levels of jumping to increase or decrease the intensity level. Depending on the vibe of your playlist, it will most likely fit best towards the beginning or end of the Cardio section.

  • GMttm Lease on Life by Andy Grammer

    Andy Grammar said that this song is about "rare moments in life" where things become clear, and he feels "like I'm on the top of the mountain and I can see for miles."

    Grammer added he's continually trying to reach that point. "Sometimes nature helps, meditation, prayer or just time with my fami...

  • GMttM One Life

    Squats, chair pose and arm circles (our more classic conditioning moves) are paired with the exploration of balance as it trains our bodies and brains.

  • GMttM - Never Gonna Not Dance Again

  • Give Meaning to the Movement - Lift Me Up

    Alas, a new song from one of my favorites, Rihanna! Most of the movement is long and slow. Focus on fully extending and using every count of the music.

  • Give Meaning to the Movement | Drag Me Out

    It's cardio-party-o, haha! As always, there are options to increase or decrease intensity. Choose what will work best for you and your class!

  • Give Meaning to the Movement | Spicy Margarita

    Spicy Margarita by Floyd Wonder

    Super fun new cardio that is all about confidence. "Aint nobody like me!" Feel and know that you aren't just a basic margarita. You are a spicy margarita!!

  • Give Meaning To the Movement | White Flag

    White Flag by Bishop Briggs is a song about not giving up, not throwing up the white flag when times are tough. It has a lot of grit and strength. It takes A LOT of hard work and determination to not give up. We hope you feel how strong you are with this song.
