with Beth Giles | Class Series $120, Drop-In $15 | On Tuesdays starting September 20th - November 8th

Nia is a movement practice designed for your body to move with pleasure. Each class we set a focus and an intention to help carry our bodies, minds and spirits on a journey of self-discovery. We move through seven cycles in class--to warm up, get moving, cool down, play on the floor and come to stillness. Like the earth, our bodies need nourishment and the simple, joy-centered movements of Nia bring vitality, strength and balance.

This class series will explore how the dance, martial arts and healing arts of Nia can move energy through our bodies, nourishing us, allowing us to sense joy, and healing our minds, bodies and spirits. We dance in bare feet (shoes are optional) to soulful music using the 52 moves of Nia that engage the whole body and the mind, emotions and spirit too. We dance Nia to build body awareness, strengthen and condition, express ourselves and have fun. No prior experience is necessary. For all levels of fitness.
