The Nia White Belt Training is the first level of a five-belt training series that presents a body-centered approach to health, wellness and fitness. If you have a desire to share Nia in a professional capacity, the White Belt Training is your entryway into teaching. Those who choose to pursue the path of personal enrichment use this training as a starting point for becoming a master student.
Over the course of one week, you will comprehensively explore physical sensation through five core-competency areas of study including movement, music, anatomy, science and philosophy. This joyful journey into the self is instrumental in helping you develop body knowing by learning to listen, interpret and consciously respond to the information your body communicates to you via sensation. Enroll in an upcoming training today, and positively shape the way you feel, look, think and live.
Upon graduation, you are eligible to become a livelihood member. As a livelihood member, you obtain a teaching license (whether you decide to use it or not) and have exclusive access to an in-depth continuing education program, an online forum, and special benefits and privileges. You may enroll in the Green Belt Training - which is dedicated to the craft of teaching - at any time after completing your White Belt Training. You may also enroll in the next level of training, Blue Belt Training.

I was born with ants in my pants and a passion for freedance from the time I could walk. Not interested in classical dance studies I kept on dancing on my own while pursuing a career in medicine. Trained both as Board certified Family Physician and Doctor of Oriental Medicine with a lifelong committment to holistic health I fell in love with Nia since my very first class in 2001. I was an overweight, stressed out, over forty professional on adownward health spiral. Nia's practice of the Joy of Movement brought me back to my own body and greater and greater fitness potential. It has since become my self-healing practice and passion. I did my first White Belt for personal growth in 2002 and later fell in love with teaching Nia. I went on to complete my Blue, Brown and Black Belts and have been teaching Nia to all comers no matter what age, fitness level or body type since 2003. I am also currently a certified Hatha Yoga teacher. I feel gratefell to be able to share this amazing healing practice to others as a teacher ad White Belt trainer.
