About me

Gender Female
Location San Antonio, United States
Introduction I am a Nia Trainer and a Nia Black-Belt teacher & Nia 5 Stages of Healing instructor, & have been teaching Nia since 1994. My classes focus on developing student's self-awareness & body wisdom through movement to promote fitness, strength, power, creativity & personal growth. My mission is to share the joy of Nia & to help others reclaim their body's natural way of moving. As a teacher of Nia, joy of movement and truly caring for people are my motivations. I believe we are as young as our spirit allows us to be. It is through an open mind and a true connection to joy that we can free, strengthen and heal our body, mind and spirit. Nia has awakened my inner child, and has made me feel timeless, ageless and weightless. I now stay fit by dancing, laughing, skipping and playing on the floor. In addition to my Nia classes, I offer Nia workshops, presentations, and have used Nia in therapy groups and with cancer rehab patients. I also offers personalized Nia 1 on 1 conditioning sessions on the principles and practice of Nia for students and Nia teachers at my home studio.
