Body Tip of the Week

To gain leg power, efficiency, and greater dynamic ease and comfort in everything you do.

Move your thighbone in all directions to the front and back, to the left and right, up and down. Move it quickly and then move it slowly to feel more flexible, mobile, agile and stable in your body.

Body Tip of the week

Stimulate health for your body, mind, emotions, and spirit by moving your bones!

Ken's Workshop

Have just come back from Ken's workshop and it was a lovely evening dancing, playing with 5 stages of healing in our body and a class that was moving to their own body's rhythms.....
If you enjoyed the class feel free to comment on the workshop...

Be Present in MIND-BODY-SPIRIT

Today's Nia class was run in preparation for Ken's workshop. In today's Nia class I met a great group of ladies whose energies are amazing !!!! The focus of today's Nia class was being present in body, mind emotions and spirit (the whole self). Nia allows you to shift out of the mental realm and be more present in our bodies. Our bodies will tell us when we need to be in balance and if we ignore the body it will let us know in a negative way that we are not in balance in our bodies.
From the spiritual realm we are always looking for that "out of body" experience when we should be looking inward and centering ourselves in every realm. Nia allows you to be more aware of self.
Please feel free to comment about this morning's Nia class and what you think would improve my class. Have a blessed weekend and I look forward to seeing you at Ken's workshop......

Thought I would mention one student had commented about the class being energetic- Nia is a cardio workout but in saying that I encourage all students especially new students to Nia to work in their body's way. I remember coming to my first Nia class dancing right at the back of class - could not keep up with all the movements but still worked in my body's way and really enjoyed the class. What I liked about Nia is it is not about getting the moves right first time, it is about enjoying the movement in your body, staying in pleasure and the rest will come. There is" no right or wrong way" in Nia .... after all it is all about you!!!!!!! PS: I have noted the comment and will be making a slight change to my Nia class which I am sure will
