Nia 5 Stages Training

Nia 5 Stages uses five simple movements that come from the body’s natural and primitive processes that organically develop and grow in healthy ways. When the body moves through the 5 Stages, Body, Mind, Emotions, and Spirit naturally realign, unify and integrate leaving you feeling a greater sense of wholeness, health and well-being. When used as a practice, these stages lead to changes that improve one’s physical comfort, ability to move efficiently, and improvement in whole body functioning and posture. Daily practicing The 5 Stages is one of the most powerful things you can do for your body. As a Nia Program, this practice gives the somatic teacher more ways to use movement as healing, fitness and personal growth medicine, adding to their workshop and class offerings.

Following the successful lineage of the international program, The Nia Technique, Nia 5 Stages serves as a program, method and practice people can do on their own or, in a class facilitated by a certified Nia 5 Stages Teacher. This Training provides inspiration for Teachers wishing to deepen their somatic body knowledge, skills and fitness/wellness choices. Like all Nia experiences this Training is intended to gently move you through your own personal doors of transformation and growth where eventually, and unexpectedly you discover more about yourself and the body through The Body’s Way. Like all Nia Trainings, Nia 5 Stages gives you a chance to experience yet another way to achieve somatic wisdom, higher-functioning, healing, fitness and transformational results through self-guided, internally based, pleasurable movement.
