Nia encourages you and literally moves you to find that place of stillness, presence, creativity, inspiration and your personal commitment to choosing joy.
Teaching Nia is not just about being an artist, dancer, fitness instructor and choreographer. Although it is all about that too, it really is also about knowing yourself and not being afraid to express and create from that highest place of unique self expression.
A common phrase within the Nia community is "I feel better".
Nia is so much of a collaborative community as well as a personal experience, it only made sense for me to ask these dedicated and amazing Nia teachers to share from their own experience what Nia is and how it has transformed their lives, as well as what having a Lion Heart means to them.
Debbie Rosas, co-founder and creator of the Nia movement and technique, also shares some more about the inspiration and creation behind this incredible gift to the world.
It is amazing what can happen when you take off your shoes and put your feet on the ground! Debbie is an extraordinary woman and her story a total inspiration.

In this episode we 'open a can of worms' as Tim relates the mismatch that has been formed within our evolutionary biology with regards to the bodies evolution, natural and unnatural stress responses and the way we actually see or perceive ourselves as human beings today.
This mismatch of evolution has led to an unnatural response to life through feelings of anxiety triggered incorrectly by stress cursers. Hence the 'mismatch'.
If you are feeling stressed, anxious or unwell, a powerful solution could be as simple as the way you take in your air.
Whilst we have evolved in so many ways, and it may not be right for us to return to hunter gatherer days, we must also understand what our body is naturally built for and that the flight or fight response is not a permanent state of being.
Breathing correctly and understanding the dynamics of correct breathing once again can help to mitigate the unnecessary, self created concept of 'threats' to our survival, that is the flight or fight response.
Tim is a naturopath/nutritionist, respiratory therapist, kayak/surf ski competitor and coach.

Anna Breytenbach's message is heartfelt and deep. It speaks of true empathy, intuitive communication and living in harmony with all species. Anna shares some real time stories working with animals and wildlife, and also some challenges that we need to address inwardly to rediscover our own essential nature, as well as learnings from the natural world that are offered in support of humanity during this pivotal time in our evolution.
Anna shares how we can expand our individual perceptions beyond the five senses and into the language of the natural world, mind to mind transference, also known as telepathy, the basis of intuitive, interspecies communication.
Meditation is the key to training your mind. Discover the nature of your primordial mind with Buddhist Dharma teachings and how meditation, practiced with discipline can transform your life.
As we delve deeply into the nature of mind we discover that our true nature is pure great love and pure great compassion.
Mindfulness is the essence of experiencing life. You can either be trapped in the thinking mind, followed by emotional reactions or you can be alive with presence and awareness.
We also chat about our animal friends and how their minds are naturally meditative and as we reach our own meditative states, we can and do experience a more deeper and loving connection with our non-human sentient being friends.
