There will always be times in your life where you feel low or disheartened. Periods of sadness or low energy is normal for everyone, but some people face these times less so than others. Knowing how to combat these hard times with feelings of joy, and creating happiness in your life to prevent things from knocking you down is important. Today’s blog will be discussing a creating happiness dance in Hamilton that can help turn your life upwards.

Many studies have shown dance to significantly aid mental health and emotional well-being. Research into the effects of dance has also indicated that it can bring high levels of joy not only through movement but through social connections and specific factors of different dance types.

Spark Joy in Your Life Through Nia Dance

The dance style that this blog will be covering is known as Nia Dance and is one of the most effective dance forms to help create happiness in your life. This can be done through various methods within Nia Dance, including the music, the movements, the teachings, and through social connection and support.

The music of Nia Dance aids in both the creation and enhancement of happiness within the mind, body, and spirit. This is through the binaural frequencies used in the songs, as well as specific instruments and chords played. Nia Dance music not only helps create happiness but also feelings of peace and serenity, aids your nervous system and organ function, and can help open your seven body chakras.

Happiness With Nia Dance

The movements of Nia Dance are inspired by different dance, healing and martial arts. There are 52 movements in total, each one completely adaptable and non-impact, making it easy for everyone to participate and have fun. The way Nia actions were designed aims to target you in various, beneficial ways, including pain relief and increased muscle strength.

As mentioned prior, the background of Nia Dance originates from different movement arts, including yoga, jazz, and tai-chi. The teachings of these arts also translate into the teachings of Nia Dance, which create verbal lessons of love, support and joy that you can apply to your life and give to others. Many mindfulness techniques are also incorporated with the Nia technique, helping to bring tranquillity, and mental and physical relaxedness.

Social connections through Nia Dance can also help create happiness in your life. Studies have shown that participating in dance with others can boost feelings of joy versus participating alone. Nia Dance is an ideal dance form to practice with others, and at Dance NZ, whether you participate online or in-person, you can feel connected to your peers.
