Good evening dancing beings!

… today has been a long travel day… from Portland to San Antonio. We had an amazing weekend, welcoming the new 47 Nia Black Belts, sharing time with dear friends from all over the world, and filming some amazing new Nia routines!

One of the gifts for me was being with Ann Christiansen. We see each other only once or twice a year when she travels from Germany. She taught a beautiful 52 Moves Level 1 class Friday morning, and then gifted me with the playlist. It was a yummy, intrinsic experience.

I am inspired to focus on Nia Principle #7, Planes and Levels. By truly experiencing a Nia class at Level One, it gives us the chance to go deep in our intrinsic muscles, the tiny muscles that keep our skeletal structure strong.

Get ready to play this week, and be amazed how Level One is a different, very powerful workout for the body and soul.

On Sunday, join Angie and me for a JourneyDance® Embodiment Workshop from 10:00-12:00. Learn the JourneyDance™ Embodiment series of release technique exercises and powerful core connections. We will get out of our mind and into our body, taking time to slow down, roll and feel our body in contact with the earth. We will get grounded, releasing, surrendering and feeling supported. We will drop deep and let go of stress and pressures.

Sound yummy? Its $25. or 2 punches on your class card. Sign up here!

Get ready for a nurturing week… all for you!

With love, Adelle

A gorgeous day to everyBody!

I woke up this morning, relaxed, read, drank coffee, and then headed out for a Pilates class. My mind was engaged in my reading about our central nervous system.

In class, I became acutely aware of when my sympathetic nervous system came into play, as my body was challenged in some poses. At the end of class, I felt tears flow as my parasympathetic nervous system kicked in, bringing relaxation and balance to my body. Tears often come up as we let our guard down.

We learn in Nia that the ‘body demands balance’, one of our Five Principles of The Body’s Way. We find balance in yin and yang movements, in right/left, up/down, in systemic movement as every cell is activated. We also find balance by exciting both our sympathetic nervous system, fight or flight… as well as our parasympathetic nervous system, the relaxation response that restores calm to the body’s inner workings.

We will focus this week on bringing awareness to our central nervous system, both sympathetic and parasympathetic, experiencing the balance of each that brings our body into homeostasis as we sense our endorphins lift our spirits!

Sound like education? Ha!… Nia is educating each one of us as we connect with the beautiful vessel that has been gifted to us, our body, all wrapped up in an hour of fun!

I look forward to our dance… Adelle
