is an inspiring, integrative movement & lifestyle practice for body, mind & spirit!
it's the ultimate “east meets west” method to tone your body, mind + spirit! nia’s barefoot, grounded approach maximizes body efficiency + teaches you to consciously move in a gentler way. the result is a fusion of movement styles that are freer than any other somatic-integrative movement program. you’ll experience the expressiveness of dance, the power and explosiveness of the martial arts, + the wisdom of the healing arts. modern dance movements are mixed with heart-pumping karate kicks + subtle therapeutic suggestions + visualization techniques to help you develop awareness + heightened sensation. this combination creates a synergy that no isolated technique can match.
nia will calm and enliven your emotions, motivate your spirit + direct your mind to enhance thought processes including your ability to meditate, visualize + focus. nia will awaken feelings + sensations in your whole body, promote creativity, expression + love for the body. nia is guided by the pleasure principle—if the body feels good, accepted and loved, it will naturally become stronger + heal. nia can be adapted to fit your personal needs + can be experienced by anyone as it challenges + fulfills the old + young, fit + not–so–fit, men + women, dancer + non-dancer alike! nia is user-friendly, flexible + playful and is medicine for body + soul.
more than "working out," nia moves you from the inside out, resulting in a whole-being practice that leads to falling in love with moving & living fully in your body. experience the organic intelligence of the sensory + intuitive body. awaken + ignite your fullest potential with the practice that will change your life! whether you are new to fitness or to nia, you'll have fun!

what students say about Nia Technique...
I started doing NIA after learning about it from a best friend. Having trained in classical Indian dance, yet having not danced in many years, I found NIA was the perfect way for me personally to discipline myself as a professional adult whilst also expressing my desire to dance. In work and at home, NIA has helped me to balance and re-align all aspects of my life. Most of all, I have learned to listen to myself, to quiet the chatter of my cognitive self through Mudras taught by my NIA guru. NIA helped open my eyes to seeing I had not actually met myself in many years; it has taught me to connect to the universe itself, and yet continues to teach me new lessons each time I go. I’ve loved learning about, and applying to my life, concepts like ‘Neuroplasticity’. I’ve learned that many different people seek NIA for different reasons. Regardless of your reasons, there is always something in NIA for everyone, no matter where you are in life.

Nia makes me feel whole! It's the most meaningful cardio workout I have ever done. I had been looking for years for a way to exercise my heart physically and emotionally and Nia is it!
