Looking for a new physical path to assist you in any goals you may have about your physical and mental health? I would strongly recommend Nia Dance, now call me biased but I can confidently say it has truly benefitted me!

Focus and Mental Health 

Every Nia class starts with a focus…something to be aware of, observe, and explore with while moving your body! Keeping a fixed concentration throughout your Nia class experience guarantees that you are IN your body, consciously aware, and actively guiding all of your movement choices and actions, keeping you safe and reducing the risk of injury.

Exercise has been shown to help balance brain chemistry, which has a favourable impact on mental health. More than just ‘exercise’ is delivered by the Nia Technique…

Nia’s holistic approach to healing the body and mind includes mindfulness, insight, positive messaging, presence, healing music, gratitude, self-direction, meaningfulness, and many more transformational tools… Mental wellness, healthy brain chemistry, and overall favourable esteem for self and others are all benefits.

How Nia Dance Can Change Your Life

Nia Dance is an amazing and extremely beneficial type of training and dance. Its one-of-a-kind design allows it to fit a wide range of body shapes and talents. It’s also a low-impact type of exercise and a form of movement art.

Nia Dance’s make-up was created in accordance with the human body’s intricate structure. This opens the door to a wide range of benefits, which can drastically improve your life.

Nia Dance moves are influenced by nine distinct martial arts, healing arts, and dance styles. Aikido, Yoga, and Tai-Chi are examples of these techniques. While these strategies aid Nia Dance’s physical impact, they also aid Nia Dance’s mental and spiritual impact.

Nia Dance is influenced not only by the physical motions of these arts but also by their vocal teachings. This is how Nia Dance is able to deliver great mental health advantages and enjoyment in your life. Nia Dance also integrates mindfulness practises, which can help you feel more relaxed after each lesson and offer emotions of peace and calmer energy.

Nia Dance’s music also helps you understand how the technique might benefit you. Nia Dance music can considerably help enhance your mood, aid in the opening of your seven chakras, help organ function and nervous system performance, as well as inspire feelings of serenity and joy, by incorporating binaural frequencies, precise chords and pitches, and properly chosen instruments.

Nia Outdoors

Nia outdoors is a fantastic way to incorporate moving your body and getting some fresh air and getting some lovely sunshine onto your body! Nia Dance itself offers your body so many benefits and being outdoors offers so many more! Studies show that exposure to nature and the outdoors is linked to induce benefits such as improved attention, decline in stress levels, improved moods and can help manage or prevent psychiatric and mood disorders such as anxiety and depression. Make sure you watch out for our pop up outdoor classes which run in February and March 2022!

Beginning Nia For The First Time

Are you thinking about attending a Nia Dance class for the first time? Nervous for what to expect or just general anxieties about doing something new for the first time? Well I have arranged what I believe are 7 tips and tricks to ensure you’re not only prepared for the class, but you are making the most of your Nia Dance experience!

• Firstly, relax and breathe. Hello and welcome to your new practice. Take advantage of the opportunity to learn something new. Begin with modest motions to help your body to acclimatize to Nia-style movement. Allow yourself to be supported by your breathing. When you feel ready, increase the range of motion and intensity as you learn the steps.

• Secondly, be present in the moment. Nia means “purposeful movement” in Swahili. Dedicate each minute to moving with the strength, pleasure, and purpose that comes with being in your body – in the NOW. Reduce the influence of your inner critic, judge, or saboteur while increasing your sense of adventure.

• Third, pay attention. Always pay attention to your body’s signals. Allow Nia to guide you towards pleasurable, “body-based” feelings from the inside out. If a move doesn’t feel correct, adjust it by going smaller, slower, or taking fewer steps. Always move away from the source of suffering. Movement is a form of treatment.

• Fourth, begin with your toes. Begin by capturing the beat of the feet and legs, then gradually incorporate the core, arms, and hand gestures. To relieve your knees, keep your feet under your hips and your joints “spring-loaded.” Your body will eventually acquire Nia’s language, the language of the body, and fall in love with the dynamics incorporated into the movement.

• Fifth, barefoot is the way to go. Discover how your feet’s 7000 nerve endings may help you walk safely and efficiently from the ground up. While it is recommended to be barefoot, you can wear shoes with a soft flexible sole for comfort or medical reasons. Moving barefoot strengthens your feet and improves your overall balance.

• Sixth, look for the phrase “Dynamic Ease.” Never make a motion that you don’t want to happen. Avoid becoming out of breath or exhausted. Keep moving within your comfort zone. Make your moves in an energy-efficient manner.

• Lastly, make a statement. This is your moment to shine. Within the exercises, express your own distinctive rhythm and body language. Jazzy, lush, poetic, quick, or seductive are all good choices. Above all, be yourself and enjoy yourself.

We also have the same event happening on the 18th February at 5.30 pm located at the Raglan Growers Market. It is a fantastic event that I know you will all enjoy.

Freedom Dance For Parkinson’s 

Next Friday on the 4th of February, Dance NZ will be starting a Freedom Dance class for those who live with Parkinson’s. It is a joyful class that combines seated and standing dance specially designed for those living with Parkinson’s. Using a modified Nia Dance technique, Belinda provides a class to suit everyone’s requirements.

The class runs from 12.00-1.00pm every Friday at Saint Johns Hall, 20 Wellington Street, Hamilton and runs through the school term only. All Parkinson’s Dance classes are sponsored and are only $5 a class, with the first one being FREE! Caregivers are also welcome free of charge. 

Benefits between Dance and Parkinson’s 

There has been a lot of interesting research between the brain, dance and slowing the progression of Parkinson’s. Dance has been used as therapy for Parkison’s for a long time. It has been shown to improve many of the struggles which are commonly paired with the disease. From balance, motor and cognitive issues, it has been seen how to dance, especially low impact dance such as Nia Dance can help ease these symptoms in some participants. 

Need To Clear Your Head?

Nia Dance is an awesome way to heal yourself from the inside out. The first step to becoming the healthiest version of yourself all starts with your mental state. 

You can benefit from Nia in all aspects of your life, feeling more confident and comfortable in your own body. Nia reduces anxiety and stress, bringing a sense of calm energy to your day.

Weight loss increased strength, and pain relief is common. Nia relieves depression and helps you regain your sense of joy. It awakens your sexuality and improves your health and circulation. It has helped many people cope with loss and grief, and to develop friendships, assertiveness, and self-esteem.

Nia is a fusion of dance, mindfulness, and martial arts that is a powerful synergistic workout designed to improve your well-being and overall health. Nia can treat injuries and illnesses, reduce depression, anxiety, and stress, improve mobility, increase strength and flexibility, as well as be a relaxing and gentle workout.

The post <strong>Outdoor Nia Dance Hamilton</strong> appeared first on Dance NZ.

Many people don’t quite fully understand how movement is magic for your body. Exercise is medicine, even small amounts can extend longevity and prevent and treat disease. Movement is a polypill that can treat and prevent illness. Ancient thinkers, such as Hippocrates and Plato, advocated physical activity for health. The evidence for this comes from recent (and not so recent) studies that show exercise reduces the risk of all-cause mortality (all causes of death) and cardiovascular-related events, as well as warding off chronic lifestyle conditions such as type 2 diabetes, obesity, metabolic syndrome, dementia and cancer. 

Almost every system of the body depends upon us moving: mental health and cognitive function, muscles and joints, hearts and lungs, hormones and moods, digestive health and gut microbiome, metabolism and blood pressure – you name it, to stay healthy, we need to move frequently and purposefully. Dance is medicine to the body.

Nia Dance and Its Cardio Importance 

It sounds like an appealing way to work out, but will Nia get you in shape? Its creators certainly believe so – claiming that Nia can improve your cardiovascular fitness, strength, flexibility, and balance. While it is probably the case if you are new to exercise, Nia’s real benefits lie in its multi-directional movements, diversity, and subtle way of engaging your mind and body without you even noticing – rather than calorie expenditure. Cardiovascular activities are extremely beneficial for your health. 

As well as helping to lower blood pressure, cardiovascular exercise can also lower cholesterol levels in the blood by raising the levels of “good” high-density lipoproteins (HDL) and lowering the levels of “bad” low-density lipoproteins (LDL). Cardiovascular exercise – specifically low-impact activities, such as Nia Dance – can help you regain muscle strength and endurance. Exercise can also help you lose weight, which may further relieve chronic back pain.

Nia Dance is The Best Thing You Can Do For YOUR Body

While running, swimming and other propulsion-based physical activities rely on rhythm and momentum to keep your body moving, dancing involves a lot of acceleration and deceleration, which the body is less able to do efficiently through energy expenditure. Nia Dance has many benefits other than just burning calories. Nia Dance’s up-and-down and side-to-side movements may stimulate and train many of your body’s small support muscles and tendons, just as trail jogging and trekking better use your lower-body joints and muscles than straight-ahead, level-ground locomotion.

Term Passes

Term passes are a great way to get more bang for your buck if you are regularly attending Nia Dance classes. Whether you’re attending our Classic Nia classes or Gentle Nia classes, we have a pass that is convenient to you! Included in the price is our 24-hour class replay, sent to you after the class has finished. 24-hour class replays are sent to you via a link in an email. They are not downloadable and expire after 24 hours.

Outdoor Dance 

Come along to the Big Dance at Steele Park in Hamilton! It is a fun, outdoor’s Nia Dance class which is suitable for everybody! I hope to see you there.

The Nia Technique brings men and women to the dance floor as singles dancing and as couples

The women are only too happy to take a back row approach beside the men and let them do what men do best, “take the Lead”

This is a typical situation and yet there is always an exception, sometimes the men choose to enjoy dancing with a group from the back of the class and be inspired by the gracefully expressive nature of a woman dancing.

It is a wonderful feeling to see a group of men and women dancing and enjoying these dynamics, and I see it bring out the best in what a woman enjoys about being a woman, and what a man feels good about being a man.

How to get a man onto the dance floor ?

The in the sober world of men dancing this is believe it or not a common question most women ask. Us women just want to see and enjoy the company of men dancing. The men will say they are shy and scared to make a fool of themselves, The whole two left feet excuse.

Men take the lead in a dance class , naturally they pick up the moves faster.

As a Nia Technique teacher, I see men coming to dance with us more and more. To the sheer delight of the women dancing the men seem to naturally “get” the pattern solving aspect of the choreography in Nia dance and they generally pick up the dance moves quicker.

It’s a delight to see men consciously choosing to take care of their health and fitness, often this happens as a recovery program and as an easeful approach to exercise men are finding the pleasure of Dance

What is Nia Dance ? 

 

 

 

Ok so now we have you asking what is Nia Dance and how is this different from other dance workouts such as ZUMBA or Martial Arts Well the main difference is the Nia Technique encourages dancers to choose a level of movement that feels good in ” Your Body’s Way”. 

 

 

 

It is a choreographed dance to beautiful music with the occasional interlude of freeform. In Nia Dance, the dancers get to creatively adapt and modify the movements, giving the dancer a mindful approach to listening to the needs of the body and choosing to create ease, comfort FUN, and pleasure. 

 

 

 

A Nia Technique instructor is merely a guide, offering you simple choreographed movement, with no expectation to follow the moves exactly, it is more about pattern solving for your brain! The Kata sequences or patterns are based on improving the neuromuscular system.

If you’re looking for something enjoyable that you can participate in whenever you want in your own time and space, or socially in group sessions, Nia Dance might be perfect for you.

The Nia Technique is a holistic practice in the form of fitness and dance, designed to support those who practice this art to become more in tune with their physical body, mind, senses, and emotions. It’s a more relaxing form of fitness that is entertaining on your own or in a group setting.

Classes at Nia With Belinda aim to provide fun and social 60-minute Nia Dance workouts to anyone interested in staying productive, expanding social circles, or looking for something exciting to mix into your schedule.

How Can Nia Dance Be Fun?

“Nobody cares if you’re out of step. It’s about fun and movement”.

Even if you’re not particularly fond of dancing, Nia Dance has multiple movements that replicate yoga forms or martial art techniques, which allows you to feel like you’re doing more than just dancing. Even within the dance arts, there are different variations of dance that Nia Dance replicates, making it a unique combination of movements that anyone can participate in and have fun performing.

Unlike other fitness groups where you might feel judged based on lack of experience or activity level, or feel pressure to keep up and perform every exercise perfectly, Nia Dance embraces beginners and the experienced alike. Classes at Nia With Belinda are known to be completely judgment-free zones and have sessions that are more advanced, like Classic Nia, or start at an easier level, like Gentle Nia.

Nia Dance is also all about free-flowing movements and adding your own style and rhythm to the moves your teacher provides. This makes the exercises feel more natural and exciting through the slight improvisation of your movements.

A Fun Class in Action with Belinda!

Is Nia Dance Something I Can Do Outside of Classes?

Definitely! Not only are the movements of Nia Dance simple and easy to learn and follow, but it also requires no equipment or specific location. You don’t even need shoes! If you’re looking for a fun form of exercise that you can complete outside of class just as easily as inside of class, Nia Dance is the ideal practice to pursue.

It can be done alone, or with family, friends, or a significant other which adds to the enjoyability of it and can be a good form of bonding between you and your peers. You can practice movements and complete workouts at home, in the garden, or even in a park.

You can access recorded Nia Dance routines on YouTube or NiaTv. Nia With Belinda even has 24-hour replays of classes available for purchase, allowing you to rewatch, rewind or fast-forward, and pause or play any class of your choice.

A Busy Class in Session!

Nia Dance v.s. Other Fitness Groups

Nia Dance is composed of workouts that combine 52 different moves, with every move originating from dance, martial, or healing arts. This blend of three different arts allows multiple areas to be focused on and receive benefits; mental states, physical body, spiritual connections, and emotional wellbeing are the main areas targeted and strengthened through Nia Dance.

While other forms of fitness, such as Boxfit, Yoga, or Brazilian Ju-Jitsu, only focus on either the physical or mental area, Nia Dance targets all areas and strives to teach you long-term support for your health and mind.

These classes were made to let go of worries and tension, instead of focusing on fun and mindfulness, while other exercise groups (i.e. Crossfit) tend to center on physical physique and health, or how hard you’re working out. Many of these types of classes try to push you to your limits, while Nia Dance tells you to do what is most comfortable and free-flowing.
