Nia Classes with Beth

Beth teaches classic Nia routines as well as many of her own, using a wide variety of outrageously good music. Her style includes athletic Nia, which means it includes interval training, strength work, and small hops, which always are optional. Classes are designed to help students learn more about their bodies and delight more in their bodies. Classes focus on mastery of technique; finding our edge, safely and with joyful enthusiasm; and connecting with the music, each other, the movement, and our lives.

Rock the Routine

This class offers a classic Nia routine experience taught in rotation each week by one of three fantastic fun teachers (Erin Damour and Kristine Susco). Experience the dynamic duo of form (the routine) and freedom (teacher variety) each week as you learn, move,  energize, and ROCK these ROUTINES!

Nia with Diane

It is one hour of pure fun.  It is exactly what you need to make that transition from day to night, shaking your day and opening up to receive the rest of your day. We'll sweat. We'll laugh. We'll enjoy 60 minutes where nothing matters except for experiencing joy. Sound good to you? I know that it does to me!

Tuesday and Thursday Nia with Ana

This class is for people on the go, who like to get energized mid-day. Ana teaches classic and original Nia routines that are athletic and restorative.

Nia with Erin

Erin brings fun, calm energy to the dance floor. Her classes include classic and home-spun Nia routines with an emphasis on fun, stress relief, and exploring the diverse movement techniques of Nia. This class is ideal for those looking for an energetic yet safe class where we explore the collective creativity of an hour dancing together.

Each pose is explained for beginners, and more experienced students will be offered additional options to further their strength, balance, and flexibility. There's an emphasis on learning the correct form and technique as well as enjoying the benefits of yoga: feeling more energized, releasing trapped energy, recovering from injuries, building strength, and enjoying learning more about our bodies. This class is taught with music to help you get into the flow.

Zumba!

ZUMBA incorporates Latin and international rhythms like salsa, merengue, cumbia, vallenato, samba, reggaeton, bollywood and African beats to create a highly energetic cardio fitness party. People don’t know they are working out because they get lost in the music, the energy and the fun of it all. ZUMBA is for EVERYONE! It is easy to follow and you can take it at your own pace. ZUMBA is a great way to de-stress, it is wonderfully exhilarating, and it feeds the soul. ZUMBA is judgment free and requires no previous dance experience. We only require that you enjoy the music, keep moving and have fun!
