“Through movement we find health.” Nia fitness is based on the idea that exercise should feel good both inside and out. 

What is Nia? Group cardio dance fitness classes that incorporate martial arts, dance arts and healing arts. Nia promotes mindfulness, holistic fitness & well-being. It empowers people of all shapes and sizes to connect to their body, mind, emotions & spirit by paying attention to sensation. Nia is taught worldwide. Search for classes on the Nia website.
