Nia Technique at the 2009 Cape Town Women's Show- South Africa

Debbie Rosas (the co-creator of Nia) leads Cape Town Nia teachers and Belts in daily Nia demonstration to packed out audiences literally "screaming" with appreciation and enthusiasm for what they saw on stage. It was truly empowering for all ! Created by Esther Campbell and Giaco Angelini of TVCSA - this three-minute movie will give you an incredible in-body experience of what it was like. The Women's Show is created and organised by SE Shows & Events and is a premier interactive lifestyle exhibition in South Africa.

Very beautiful movements, I heading to my 1st Nia Class today as I'm seeking physical, mental and spiritual fitness. I'll report back my thoughts.

Love love love Nia! Have taken classes by Martha Randall, who is a First-Generation Nia instructor. What I like best is there are so many routlnes using the 52 steps, and they can be done to different music---so lots of variety. Never boring! Try it, everyone!

Powerful movement fitness practice. I love that Nia can be experienced and explored at any level of fitness. It is a stepping stone to great aerobic fitness and mobility, increased range of motion (joint mobility and function) and flexibility, strength, stability (balance), agility and precision. The nine movement forms (3 dance, 3 martial arts and 3 healing arts - including yoga) integrate body awareness, pleasurable journey, beginners or top athletes. Move your body for life-long fitness.

@blahblahchachacha i'm researching both atm and read from someone that does both that zumba is tougher to keep up with, more formal, specific.

[blahblahchachacha]

question: i have two left feet. zumba is a disaster for me (and anyone who happens to see me.) so, honestly, how fast are the step routines?
