The Nia Technique is a dynamic cardiovascular workout that stimulates and integrates the mind, body and spirit.

Nia gives people of all ages and fitness levels tools to explore their own bodies and the ways they move. Students are given the space and time to explore, perceive, and refine their movements in order to experience greater ease and pleasure. Through the practice of Nia's time-tested technique, the body, mind, emotions, and spirit transform - changing and growing to reach the personal potential set by each individual.

At its core, Nia is about expressing the joy of movement. Music from around the world invites you to explore the dynamic possibility of movement within your own body. Incorporating elements from the martial arts, dance arts and healing arts, a Nia routine is choreographed by each instructor into an invigorating 60-minute cardiovascular routine. We are not twins, and every body moves in its own way, so students are encouraged to explore how their body moves, rather than trying to exactly mimic the instructor's movements.

Nia is dedicated to the physical and emotional spiral of the soulful freedom of movement inherent in every being. After a Nia class you will feel recharged, rejuvenated, full and alive.

All ages and levels of experience are welcome in a Nia class, which will range in age from 13-80. Each student is encouraged to modify their movements, speed and range of motion to suit their own needs and ability. The class is taught barefoot in order to assist you in connecting with the Earth and building strength in your foundation. (If you need to wear shoes for any reason, please bring shoes that are only worn indoors so that we can protect the floors for those going barefoot.)
