Although the Nia technique got it's big break on Big Little Lies, Realbuzz reports that it has been around since 1983 when "two disillusioned aerobics instructors started to look for a more meaningful, expressive way to get an exercise workout." In the class, we were told that Nia stands for a combination of "non-impact aerobics" and "neuromuscular integrative action," and Realbuzz explains that the Nia technique is all about "giving purpose to movement." As NiaNow puts it, the practice combines "dance, martial arts and mindfulness," and "tones your body while transforming your mind." Nia is an expressive fitness programme that will guide you into Loving your Body and loving your Life. It is empowering, graceful, playful and tender and all this is packaged as a one hour fitness program. Nia is a Mind Body Spirit dance that is a pathway to self knowing through the wisdom and intelligence of your body. If you love yoga, Pilates, or teach Mindfulness, you can discover how adding Nia to your current practice adds a whole new dimension to your work and life.

(0%)If, like me, you want to exercise but do not like aerobics. You love to dance but don’t enjoy Zumba. And yoga routines have started to feel scripted… then this is THE class for you! Dorit’s NIA class has all the benefits of yoga, with great music and fabulous flowing dance moves. Try it - you will not regret it!
Excellent class, great fun and welcoming teacher. Very accessible, highly recommended

This was a really fun, accessible and meditative way to get moving. I would definitely join again. Thank you, Dorit
Great class! Recommended to anyone who enjoys to workout in a playful way
I've been doing Nia in Bristol with Helen for nearly three years and recently online with Dorit. Nia is so much more than a dance class. It encourages you to move with ease and joy and has helped me fall in love with my body again. Classes are food for the soul!
I loved this class. It was much more interesting and expressive than aerobics but the dance steps were easy enough to follow to make it accessable to everyone. I felt like I had a great workout while having fun and would definitely do it again.
