The Rhythm of Life...Do you Feel it?

Hello Beautiful Friends!

“To live is to be musical, starting with the blood dancing in your veins. Everything living has a rhythm. Do you feel your music?” 

                         Michael Jackson

I am so excited to be back in my community with all you wonderful radiant beings of light.  Adelle and I have just returned from Nia Headquarters in Portland, Oregon, where we participated in a wonderful new Nia training called FreeDance, and were dancers in the 2015 Nia teacher training videos!!!  It was magical, and I am so excited and recharged!

This week as I step back into my classes, I invite you to connect to and be aware of the rhythm of life.  Everything in life flows with its unique rhythm...the sun comes and goes down each day as part of the rhythm of the Universe, the seasons flower and change, and the moon flows from full to new.  In your body, you can feel your unique rhythm though your heartbeat, your breath, the blinking of your eyes, the beat of your internal organs, and the flow of you blood and water.  Even your laughter has a unique rhythm.  Go ahead and laugh right NOW and notice how each HA (the beat of your laugh) is exactly spaced.  It's amazing!!   Rhythm is the driving force that holds our lives together! 

In Nia we honor the rhythm of every Body through a principle called Natural Time.  Natural Time (NT) is fluid, non-linear, and centered in the NOW, and it reconnects us to the rhythms of nature and the rhythms of all life forms. NT invites us to move in our own time, at our own pace and discover our own unique way of moving so we can make choices intuitively as we sense our body.  NT is a way for us to be in touch with the Universe, and have a deep and rich relationship with our body.  NT invites us to dance to our unique beat.  Our body loves to move, and when we move in NT, our body becomes fluid with the rhythm  of life.  

Do you feel it...Rhythm!!  See you in class!!
