Monthly Live Online Yoga Class for Subscribers + Bring a Friend
Saturday 29th July 2023 // 9.30-10.30am (BST)
Part of being part of MFML is moving and breathing together. As well as having access to a library of 1,500+ ‘on demand’ classes, we’re so chuffed to offer our loyal Movers a regular live online community class. Although the class is free, if you wish to pay for ours and the teachers’ time, we would appreciate that, purely on a ‘Pay as you Feel’ basis.
Join Amy Holly, for a morning Barre community class ‘What’s core got to do with it’
This class will be a total body workout without any impact. Amy will focus on the core and barre posture and why it’s so important in a barre practice but also how it ties into being an energetic person away from the barre.
This class will include:
- Isometric movement – small but powerful@
- Standing & floor core exercises
- No impact total body workout
- Breath work and relaxation
This class is open to all levels of experience from newcomers to old-time movers!

Amy Holly has worked in every aspect of dance as a dancer, choreographer, movement director and teacher for more than 20 years and has been responsible for making the careers of many young dancers. She originally trained at London Contemporary Dance School. Amy would describe herself as a dance/movement specialist. Keeping the traditions of teaching ballet, the discipline and the importance of technique and moving it forward is crucial to her. Her approach is more than exercise, it’s a way of looking at life and yourself.
Amy brings energy and a enthusiasm to move! Amy’s classes are good for working on mental & physical strength and they are the perfect counterbalance to a yoga practice.
Amy sees her classes as energy work just like Yoga or Qigong – it’s time to work it up and dance it out!

Why a community class?
It feels good to get together with others. Just look in any restaurant, or park on a sunny day and you will see the simple joy of people uniting and sharing time together. In many ways, in times gone by, we have taken for granted the importance of this in our personal lives; though for many, the strange COVID times and quarantines has been a stark reminder of the value and downright necessity, for our mental health and wellbeing, of simply being in the company of others.
But beyond this we often forget or perhaps never knew the value of community and getting together with others as part of or as support on our spiritual path: the path each of us are on of growing, evolving and maybe even one day awakening to the full potential of joy and bliss as our birthrights!
Regularly prioritizing getting together with like minded others can have a profound effect on our growth and evolution, not least when we are going through tough times and feel compelled to throw out all our healthy, life enhancing practices. It’s also a great way to stay motivated in our practice. It need not be anything wildly grand or planned out, simply carved out time where there is the chance for communion; for authentically sharing and feeling held in the energy of the collective.
In many ancient spiritual traditions the value of community was not only honoured, but often placed at the centre of the important elements to hold onto and sustain to allow for the most precipitous pathway to peace and awakening.
So let’s come together, with open hearts and curious minds, to share in each other’s wisdom, and in our shared humanity. We all know what it is like to yearn for love, acceptance and ultimately peace and simply carving out time to be in community can soothe deep parts of us that are calling out to be part of the collective. This can fill up even the deepest sense of being alone on the path or feeling a disconnection between your so-called mundane life and your path of evolution. Creating space in our lives to be in community truly can lift us up and allow us to feel held, supported and nourished.
