“It is your work in life that is the ultimate seduction.”
― Picasso
“Beauty and seduction are nature’s tools for survival, because we protect what we fall in love with. It opens our hearts and reminds us that we are part of nature; we are not separate from it.” – Louie Schwartzberg

Being seduced is a natural and effortless way to draw us into life. It can also be used in our dance in a Nia class. How can we do this? AHHH....many ways!!! We have a practice in Nia called "Being Seduced By the Music" that trains us to engage fully into the Art of Listening to the music...the silence and the sounds. Through this practice we become intimate with the music, which in return, when we dance, brings a newness and uniqueness to our dance. The music literally seduces our body to move in new and unique ways, and open to the potential of our dance!
You can expand this sensation physically as you are dancing, by sensing the energy that seduces you from every direction. Allow this energy to give your every move the sensation of effortless surrendering, and making ease a part of your Nia dance. Mentally, let go and become seduced by space and non-thinking. Allow this freed up energy to seduce you to deeply feel life, making mental ease a part of your Nia dance. Emotionally become aware of what you are drawn to, feeling the sensation of emotional seduction. Become intimate with your desires and allow emotional seduction to be a part of your Nia dane. And Spiritually, be seduced to your true spirit and awaken your body! Regain your personal power by opening up to the authentic you, the one that can lighten your load and takes you into the personal growth that extends into all the realms of fitness and healing. So come play with this sensation in class on Monday (today) and Thursday at 5:30 pm.
Then get ready for a weekend full of newness as we introduce a new Nia routine called Awake. Awake's focus is Spine,Spiral
and Space. This is a yummy routine and you can dance with us all
