SOUND FAMILIAR?

You're already moving. You just want to know it's actually working.

Maybe you're already taking group classes somewhere, and you're not sure your form is right, or whether the execises are actually built for your body. Maybe you're been watching Mari for a while and want to work with her directly, but you're not ready to commit to a full 12-week program yet.

Either way, you actually want is someone who can look at how you move, answer your questions, and tell you what to do next.

WHAT THE BODY ASSESSMENT IS

3 private sessions, where you're body is today

The Body Assessment is 3 private, one-on-one sessions with Mari McConathy, 50 minutes each. She'll look at how you move, check your form, answer your questions, and help you build a game plan, whether that's continuing on your own, joining group classes, or going deeper with private coaching.

This is a good fit even if you're already taking group classes elsewhere. A private session makes sure your form is right, catches bad habits before they set in, and gives you a chance to ask questions you can't ask mid-class.

✔ 3 private, one-on-one sessions with Mari, 50 minutes each

✔ A personal game plan for what to do next

✔ Early access to enroll in Rise Intensive before it opens to the public

THE EARLY ACCESS BONUS IS

Finish your assessment, and you're first in line for Rise Intensive

Rise Intensive is Mari's flagship 12-week transformation arc, opening to the public on October 1st. Everyone who completes The Body Assessment gets early access to enroll starting September 15th, before general enrollment opens.

Since Rise Intensive only has a small number of spots each round, finishing your assessment is the surest way to get done.

Led By

Mari McConathy has spent decades helping people move with more ease, strength, and confidence, first as a ballet dancer, then through years as a personal trainer and certified Pilates instructor. She's also a mother of four and a grandmother of two, so she understands the real demands of life outside the studio, not just inside it.

That experience shaped her focus: guiding women through midlife and beyond with movement that meets them where they actually are, whether that's rebuilding after an injury, adjusting to changes like menopause, or just wanting to feel steadier and stronger in their own body. The Body Assessment exists because that starting point matters. Before any plan makes sense, she needs to see how you actually move, not guess at it. Three private sessions give her that real picture, and give you one built around your body instead of a generic program.

Common Questions

Is this in-person or online?

Both. You can meet with Mari face to face in Versailles, Kentucky, or online via Zoom, whichever works better for you. The exact in-person location is shared directly with you once your session is booked.

What if I already take group classes somewhere else?

That's great reason to do this. A private session checks your form, catches habits that might be creeping in, and gives you a game plan alongside your regular classes.

I'm not ready for a 12-week program.

You don't need to be. The Body Assessment is just 3 private sessions, and it's the easiest way to work with Mari directly before deciding on anything bigger.

Can I just book one session instead of three?

Yes. A single 50-minute session is $250, no package required.

Do I need a discovery call before I book?

No. The Body Assessment is straightforward enough that you can reserve your spot directly. If you have questions first, send Mari a message and she'll help you decide.

How does the early access to Rise Intensive work?

Once you complete The Body Assessment, you'll be able to enroll in Rise Intensive starting September 15th, ahead of its public opening on October 1st.

What if I need to reschedule a session?

24-hour notice is required to cancel or reschedule. No-shows and late cancellations are charged as if the session was used.

Is there a deadline to use my sessions?

Yes. All sessions must be used within 90 days of purchase.

Only 4 spots. Reserve yours before they're gone.

3 private sessions with Mari, a real plan for your body, and early access to Rise Intensive before anyone else.
