Nia Dance Technique Workshop at NOK Yoga Shala

Saturday, Feb 23, 2013
3:00pm -> 5:00pm
Yoga Souk

NOK Yoga Shala is hosting a Nia dance technique workshop with Junaline Bañez-Moussi.

This experiential workshop is designed for those who are new to Nia. The first hour is a no-music practice. It is an introduction to the seven cycles of a regular Nia class.

Nia is a sensory-based movement practice that draws from martial arts, dance arts and healing arts. It empowers people of all shapes and sizes by connecting the body, mind, emotions and spirit.

You will explore the 52 moves of Nia, designed to experience the five sensations (flexibility, agility, mobility, strength and stability). The second hour is about music and the joy of movement. You’ll learn how to dance a full Nia class using The Body’s Way with pleasure. Don’t forget to wear clothing that allows you to move freely; the dancing will be done barefeet.

Participation fee: $33
