Nia is a fusion fitness practice that has a wonderful balance of both form and freedom. It integrates the conscious alignment and posturing of yoga then combines the expressiveness of the dance arts, the power and explosiveness of the martial arts and the wisdom of the healing arts.
In a Nia class you will find music, relaxation, imagery, pleasure, joy, ease, comfort, freedom, harmony and balance. Movements often transcend through nine different movement forms. Evolving from the slow dance of tai-chi into the precision of tae-kwon-do, Nia also utilizes the excitement, fun, and showmanship of jazz. It also incorporates the free spirit of Duncan dance and the creative play between the shapes, space and balance of modern dance.
Nia can be adapted to fit your personal needs and can be experienced by anyone, from stiff beginners to the most highly fit athletes. No prior experience is necessary. Everyone is welcome!!
Nia creates a full-body workout that gets your heart pumping! And since working out should be FUN, you will never leave Nia without a smile on your face.
Nia was created by Debbie and Carlos Rosas over 20 years ago. Each class is formatted in a completely unique way with a warm up, a cardiovascular component and floorplay. Nia's barefoot grounded approach maximizes body efficiency and teaches you to consciously move in a more gentle way. The movements of Nia provide cardiovascular conditioning, flexibility, muscle conditioning and definition, increased overall agility, balance and strength.
