Nia in Action:
Testimonial: "Nia has totally changed how I view exercise. It made me re-discover the joy of being in my body after going through treatment for breast cancer, which involved a lot of pain in my body. I’ve never really vibed with the “no pain, no gain” philosophy of fitness, but until I found Nia I didn’t have an alternative (except yoga). The difference between yoga and Nia, for me, is that yoga helps connect me to myself, it’s a very inward focus, while Nia lets me expand my spirit and energy outwards, and helps connect me to other class members as well. It’s fun, it’s joyous, it’s a kick-ass workout, and the music is awesome. I am totally addicted!"
