What is NIA?
Drawing on the wisdom of dance, martial arts, and healing arts, Nia is a fabulously fun workout for the body, mind, and spirit. A network of certified teachers bring these moves to students around the world. Usually done barefoot to soul-stirring music, Nia is perfect for anyone who wants to dance to stay fit.

All fitness levels welcome!

Ines will lead us through a “Classic Nia”
routine danced to beautiful music. This
will be followed by “Nia 5 Stages” a separate practice taking us through human
development: Embryonic, Creeping, Crawling, Standing and Walking. Consciously moving through these stages as an
adult re-integrates the physical, mental, emotional and spiritual elements in
such a way that after just five minutes of practice, participants notice
improvements in power, range of motion, and ease in their bodies other forms of
exercise do not affect. The process of
realignment allows the body to do what it is designed to do: explore its potential, self-heal and grow.
In the Spring of 2015, Ines completed training in Nia Wise Moves, a certification program for working with Seniors offered by Nia Technique in conjunction with the JCC of Manhattan. In 2016 she attended Moving to Heal (M2H) training to add to her repertoire of offerings. M2H is a gentler form of the classic Nia routine which can be adapted to the practitioner’s capability of movement whether in a chair or standing up.

About Ines: Ines hails from New Jersey where she regularly teaches NIA. She has been interested in movement and
dance for over 40 years. She studied
Middle Eastern Dance and Flamenco and performed and taught Middle Eastern Dance
for many years. Upon her first experience
with Nia, Ines was “hooked.” The joy and
expressiveness of Nia “spoke” to her and lead to a deepening of her Nia
practice and deciding to obtain a White Belt in 2011 (the first level of
training required for a Nia instructor).
In addition to becoming certified to teach Nia 5 Stages (a separate
movement practice) in 2013, she subsequently earned a Blue Belt in 2014, a
Green Belt in 2015, a Brown Belt in 2016, and a Black Belt in 2018. Ines has also been trained in the Nia 52
Moves which are the foundation of the classic Nia routine.
