Nia with Jen, Kerryn & Laurien

Nia is an expressive body-mind-spirit movement practice that was created as an alternative to the "no pain no gain" attitude to fitness. Set to rich eclectic music, Nia choreography is drawn from martial arts, a range of dance styles and the healing arts. Nia not only strengthens and tones the body, but also stimulates the mind and spirit through playful movement patterns.

Some other of the many benefits of Nia include improved cardiovascular health, alleviation of stress and anxiety, hormonal stability and an increase in well being, leaving you feeling energised, alive, mentally clear and emotionally balanced.

Classes run for 60 minutes, are conducted barefoot and are suitable for all ages and body types. While instructors lead choreographed movement patterns, there is no "right and wrong" and everyone is encouraged to move in their own body's way - and to have fun.! Wear loose comfortable clothing, bring a drink bottle and join at any time during the term. If you are anew starter, arrive 10 minutes early to register.
