How Nia Dance’s Healing Properties Can Positively Impact Your Life 

Long-term stress can negatively impact your life, by contributing to heart disease, obesity and high blood pressure. Nia Dance alleviates all anxiety and stress that your body grasp’s onto and help’s you obtain an overall sense of calm energy. The Nia movements are inspired by Yoga and allow the body to open and the mind to clear, while also allowing tensions to release.

Gentle stretching in the dance allows awareness of alignment of breath. Moshe Feldenkrais-inspired moves are performed slowly and quickly. Awareness and sensation provide a gateway to positive change in the body. Focus is on breath, voice, circulation, the five senses, rhythm, and emotions held in the body.
