I love my body for its mobility and my mind for its creativity. That's what I came away with after a workshop with NIA master, Kathy Wolstenholme
Sugar Dance Studios hosted this dynamic woman for a workshop entitled 'juice'. What a delicious word that is and what a great way to spend an hour and a half! I almost didn't go...i'd had a busy day (you know the usual lame excuse)...but as the owner of the studio I wanted to show my support. It always amazes me how exercise lifts my spirits and washes away negative clouds of tension and stress. We all arrived carrying the burdens of the day in our bodies but left feeling energized and uplifted!
Kathy is originally from the USA and was instrumental in bringing NIA out to South Africa. She now lives in Cape Town and is touring the country promoting the style and sharing her passion with lucky people like me.
According to Kathy, I am walking battery pack sustained and enhanced by food, water, air & MOVEMENT! In the same way that being driven, recharges a car battery, MOVEMENT recharges my battery. I let go of my insecurities and let the music sing to me, playing its rhythms through my 13 joints. I stretched out my limbs and shook about, I even rolled around on the floor and shouted out loud! It was a brilliant experience to be so free and unconfined.
Nia is the hottest form of easy & fun fitness right now. It’s not just the sweat you will work up in a Nia workout, that makes it hot … The soul of Nia is JOY experienced through natural movement, to inspirational music. JOY is the greatest antidote to stress & the thread that connects us to one another. Nia is powerful WHOLE BODY martial arts & dance movement. It moves you from the inside out and is the way to free & enliven your spirit!
