Fifteen years ago I took my first Nia class. At the time, I had no idea of what it was I was doing—let alone what Nia was—but, during this first class, something came to me that I have never let go of since. I FELT FABULOUS exercising! What was this feeling? I felt invigorated, alive, happy, healthy, strong... I felt like "me." After attending classes weekly for a few years, I decided that I never wanted Nia to NOT be a part of my life. And, I wanted everyone around me to feel what I felt in a Nia class -- everyday. Like a great fashion tip, or sale at Nordstroms, everyone needs to know about Nia. In 1999, I received my White Belt and soon began sharing Nia as a teacher -- and fast forward to today -- very soon, I will be joining the Nia faculty to facilitate White Belts myself. 

What I love to bring to each Nia experience is my enthusiastic energy, innovative creativity and extreme Joy for this work. Come move with me, dance with me, laugh with me! Be inspired by you! Your body will sweat and your soul will soar in celebration of your healthy body and life!

When not teaching Nia, I love being with my family and friends, going on walks, watching soccer games, and celebrating each Friday night with pizza and movies. I am also a Yoga teacher, as well as a Graphic Designer. Please visit me online at: www.Move2Joy.com
