ABOUT THE 52 MOVES
Nia’s 52 Moves are the building blocks of all Nia routines, classes and Nia programs. They originate from diverse modalities spanning Dance Arts, Martial Arts and Healing Arts. They are designed to bring conditioning to every muscle group, joint, the nervous system, and the three main areas of the body: base, core and upper extremities.

Come ready to move and wear anything that makes you feel free and comfortable. Please bring a water bottle, a towel, and a mat for floor exercises (optional).
