NIA FOR BEGINNERS

New to Nia and not sure where to start? The good news is that every Nia class is perfect for newcomers, whether you haven’t moved in a while or feel like you have two left feet! Come as you are—Nia meets you where you’re at!

There’s no single way to do Nia. It’s all about reconnecting with your body and listening to that inner voice that remembers how good it feels to move and celebrate life. No matter your age, body shape, fitness level, or ability, Nia is designed to embrace the Joy of Movement. This is the key to reclaiming your vitality, health, and power, wherever you are in your body and life journey.

Our Nia community thrives on kindness—there’s no judgment and no pressure to “get it right” or keep up. In every class, you’ll be offered choices to personalize your movement, tuning into your body to find pleasure and ease.

Feeling a bit awkward when starting something new is natural, but most students find they become more confident and comfortable after just a few classes. That’s why I offer 7 DAYS FOR $17 to help you get started.

If you’re healing from illness, injury, or trauma, you might prefer to try a Gentle Nia class. If you have any concerns, feel free to call me at +61 431 484 054. Want to know more? Check out 7 TIPS FOR BEGINN ING NIA

CLASS DESCRIPTIONS

Nia is a joyful, barefoot movement class inspired by soul-stirring music. Simple movement patterns are infused with the energy of martial arts, dance and mindfulness to activate and liberate your body mind and spirit.

You’ll be guided to listen to your body, moving with sensations of aliveness, pleasure and ease. Adaptable for all ages and fitness levels, Nia meets you where you’re at and invites you to move in your own body’s way.

Nia 5 Stages blends gentle floor-based movement with somatic (body-centred) education with the intention to feel better. You'll be guided to tune into your body and move at your own pace through the 5 stages of human development - embryonic, creeping, crawling, standing and walking.

This mindful practice has the power to re-pattern, realign, strengthen, and increase energy flow throughout the body, while restoring and calming the nervous system.

Gentle Nia offers a nourishing whole body experience of simple movement sequences with uplifting music. Ideal for beginners, for people healing therapeutic issues (such as injury, illness, trauma), or for anybody who wants to move at a restorative pace.

Learn to slow down and personalise movement to fit your needs by focussing on ease and "feel good" sensations. Benefits include feeling more centred, improved balance and flexibility, intrinsic conditioning, and a felt sense of joy.

52Moves classes combine one-minute intervals in each of Nia’s 52Moves with an energising playlist of diverse music. It delivers FUN body-brain fitness integrating mindful awareness, cardiovascular conditioning, whole body connection, and joy.

Beginners… this is a great way to learn the moves and the “language of Nia” used in every Nia class.

Experienced students... improve your technique and explore your potential.

For every body… go at your own level!

A Nia Moving to Heal class supports people dealing with a range of issues, such as illness, injury, trauma, addiction, and depression to experience mindfulness and movement as medicine. With inspiring music, you will be guided to slow down and personalise movement for your body’s way. It is a positive and conscious path to feeling better. Students who wish to participate while seated in a chair are fully supported.
