Nia White Belt Training

I am a nationally certified Nia Black-Belt teacher and Nia Trainer, and Nia 5 Stages of Healing facilitator, offering Nia classes, Nia White Belt trainings, and Nia workshops. I have 18 years of Nia Technique experience and bring creativity, laughter, compassion and enthusiasm to my Nia work. My mission is to share the joy of Nia with everyBody and to help others reclaim their body's natural way of moving and live a life of pleasure. As a teacher of Nia, joy of movement and truly caring for people are my motivations and I believe we are as young as our spirit allows us to be. It is through an open mind and a true connection to joy that we can free, strengthen and heal our body, mind and spirit. Nia has awakened my inner child, and has made me feel timeless, ageless and weightless. I now stay fit by dancing, laughing, skipping and playing on the floor. I want everyBody to feel love, joy and pleasure in their body, and live into their potential!

I am a Sacred Athlete, a teacher and healer to all people. The most precious gift I have received from Nia is self-love, which has manifested into my life purpose to give love and healing light to everyBody. I fulfill this purpose every time I step into a Nia class, workshop and training.

I also offer Nia 5 stages classes, personalized Nia 1 on 1 conditioning sessions on the principles and practice of Nia for students and Nia teachers, and have used Nia in therapy groups, with cancer rehab patients and in corporate settings.

I am also a Journey Dance Facilitator, Board Certified Mindful Change Coach, a Laugher Yoga Leader, and a Certified Project Management Professional.
 

I am a nationally certified Black Belt Nia Teacher and Nia White Belt Trainer, Journey Dance Guide, Reiki Sensei, Professional Fiber Artist, and owner of The Synergy Studio, www.thesynergystudio.com. I have been dancing and teaching in the field of art for over 35 years.

I offer Nia workshops and presentations throughout the US and Mexico, as well as demonstrations for companies and special groups. In addition to my regular Nia Classes, I work with patients in pain management, women dealing with sexual trauma and eating disorders, as well as working individually, for those who want a more personal experience.

I also offer Nia 5 Stages private sessions, as well as private sessions in Classic Nia. The Nia 5 Stages is an integrative movement practice based on the five stages of human development: Embryonic, Creeping, Crawling, Standing and Walking. Practiced with awareness, these stages have the power to facilitate optimal alignment, improved function and comfort in the body. Whether practiced at length or for as little as five minutes a day, this system provides a tool for reclaiming and sustaining mobility, flexibility, strength, agility and stability.

"Teaching Nia to people in all situations has been rewarding, as well as energizing. Seeing smiles on the faces of people who have been afraid to move, or have felt disconnected from their body, makes every class a true joy for me. We shimmy, kick, sway, punch, laugh and sing our way to health!"
