Nia + Yoga
Each time I step barefoot onto the studio floor or pull out my mat, I create a dedicated space and time to investigate the connection and relationship between my body and mind. Like many relationships, the more I explore it, play with it, expand it and nurture it, the more it grows, flourishes and shows me things I had never imagined.
As I continue to practice and increase my teaching, the more often these sensations, inspirations and discoveries spill out of the studio and into the rest of my life. Honestly, sometimes I’m not sure whether the ideas, inspirations, revelations and resolutions I experience while moving in my practice come from my head…or my toes!
What will it be like for you?
Nia with christine helps me connect to my body in a fun and liberating way that leaves me feeling happy and strong. I appreciate your playfulness mixed with her obvious experience and knowledge. It’s always a pleasure!
Before my class of Nia with Christine, I had no previous experience, so I was intrigued and excited to try it out. It honestly exceeded my expectations. This class was so fun, and a great way to move my body, while listening to great music. Christine makes it also extra fun by being so charming, friendly and inviting. She lights up the room with her playful energy. Her class feels like a safe space to be free, silly, or just disconnect for a minute from the chaos of every day life. I highly recommend her class!

Nia
Nia is a practice that draws on the energies of 9 different movement arts including 3 dance arts, 3 healing arts and 3 martial arts. It gives the body a space to play with strength, precision and agility in the same class as freedom, flow and flexibility. Classic Nia classes are 60 minutes in length and are done barefoot to a wide variety of music. To learn more about The Nia Technique www.nianow.com. If you would like to bring a private Nia class to your workplace or community, please contact me.
Yoga
Yoga provides me with stillness, stability and strength. My practice has helped me avoid and heal from injury as well as created an awareness in my body of when I am more vulnerable and how to best protect myself. Teaching private and small group sessions allows me to provide guidance and encouragement on a more intimate level.
Let get in touch if you are interested in a private yoga session or would like to bring a yoga class to your family or workplace.
