Movement is a medicine for creating change in a person’s physical, emotional, and mental states. -Carol Welch

Movement is fundamental to all life forms. It is crucial to healing. Physically, it vitalizes our cells, nourishes our tissues and balances all our organ functions. Mentally, it creates a healthy flow of thoughts and a positive outlook on life.

Nia is a sensory-based movement practice that draws from disciplines of the Martial Arts, Dance Arts and Healing Arts. A body-mind-spirit practice by design, Nia empowers people of all backgrounds and fitness levels by connecting them with the voice of the body: sensation. Classes are danced barefoot to customized music that blends Eastern and Western instrumentation and sound. Every class offers a unique combination of 52 moves that correspond with the main areas of the body: the base, the core and the upper extremities.
