WHO TAKES NIA?
People of all ages, from all walks of life and with varied interests participate in Nia. People who love to move and are passionate about change, people who desire a conscious, artistic, fun, expressive and pleasurable way to get fit, to heal and to personally grow.

HOW DOES NIA DIFFER FROM OTHER “MIND - BODY” PROGRAMMES?
Everything in Nia is perceived, experienced and processed through the body. Nia uses the body to develop Sensory IQ wisdom. The mind is used to imagine, witness, focus and direct attention. The emotions are used to personally engage the individual with activity, thereby creating the coupling effect needed to trigger the mind-body connection. Spirit is used to honor the uniqueness of each individual. Nia uses emotion and sound to condition the body and nervous system. Nia’s teaching style emphasizes internally directed guidance, uses visual and sensory language, user-friendly choreography, that can be adapted to fit personal needs, and includes three stages of learning for all levels of ability.

Nia Dance – “Love Your Body, Love Your Life”
Nia is a movement form for ALL: all ages, all fitness level, all sizes, all state of health and all personalities. Done barefoot to diverse and inspiring music, Nia is a transformational movement practice that teaches you to be more JOYFUL, EXPRESSIVE and ALIVE.
Nia is holistic, engaging your body, mind, emotions and spirit.…and most of all Nia is FUN!

“I am hoping that some of the staff from the charity will be taking part.
I intend for this event to be nothing less than inspiring, empowering and healing for all, using our bodies and the JOY of movement to create miracles!
Tell everyone to wear comfortable clothes, of their favourite colour, shape and texture…(optional: using scarves, skirts and belts to dress it up) –
Nia is about feeling your best as you move!
Also tell everyone to bring a bottle of water. The bar will be open at 9pm after the session for people to stay and mingle.
My heart and my Happy Feet can’t wait to be there and share with you and your friends what promises to be a meaningful and Joyful Unique experience.
