A Power Up class with Mariane Karou recorded in the wake of a profound personal loss — the sudden passing of her husband of 47 years — offered as a direct transmission of how to keep your life force activated when circumstances knock you down. You are invited to bring a real challenge to the practice: something hard, something you didn't choose. From there you breathe into it, root into the earth, and use the movement to gather your energy rather than be flooded by it.
The class trains you to feel fully — fear, grief, intensity — while building the riverbank that keeps those feelings moving rather than overwhelming. You work to consolidate your mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual strength into one committed direction, and practice holding that direction in small groups as you build resistance and steadiness together.
