Nia is a joyful, worldwide transformational fitness practice that blends movements from the dance arts, the martial arts and the healing arts (such as yoga). Nia offers cardiovascular whole-body conditioning, stress reduction, increased strength, flexibility and greater balance. It is done barefoot to eclectic music to get your heart pumping and your body moving.

In “The Learn to Love Your Feet Workshop”, we will learn about the steps and stances that make up this amazing movement. We will integrate all of our new moves into an hour long Nia class with music that will inspire you to go even deeper into your Nia experience. This workshop is for those new to Nia or those who have already begun their Nia practice. No experience with Nia or any other movement form is required. Come prepared to enjoy great music, playful movement and heart centered facilitation.

*Bonus* Learn about the upcoming Nia Teacher Training happening in Camden Maine this July with Nia Trainer Casey Bernstein.

This morning's email from Abraham-Hicks- Worth a read

"Most people have a hard time delegating, or even wanting to delegate, because you have been justifying your existence through your hard work, and you equate success with struggle; you equate results with struggle. And so, you sort of wear your struggle like a badge of honor. And all of that is opposite of allowing the Well-being. The only thing that ever matters in success or achievement is your achieving the things that you want to achieve. So if you are setting standards and you're feeling uncomfortable about the standards that you've set, tweak the standards back a little bit. Ratchet it back a notch. Give yourself a break. Give yourself the benefit of the doubt. Lighten up. Be easier. Go slower. Take it easy. Have more fun. Love yourself more. Laugh more. Appreciate more. All is well. You can't get it wrong. You never get it done."

What moms are saying about my Mommy and Me Nia Class

Mommy and Me Nia has been an amazing way for me to reconnect with my body after the enormous transitions of pregnancy, birth, and early motherhood. It not only provides me with precious time to move my body, exercise and stretch, but my baby loves being snuggled in while we move to great music. Maggie is the perfect instructor for this class-- she manages to make space for both spirituality and humor, and embraces the flexibility our little ones require. - Lynn

Catherine and I love Mommy and Me Nia. I love to dance and am always dancing around the house. This class is a great time for me to really connect with my daughter and myself as well as reap the benefits of the movement all in a group setting. Maggie is a wonderful instructor and always makes class safe, exciting, and enjoyable. She has great energy and truly looks forward to seeing all of the Moms and babies each week. Finally, I look forward to seeing the other Moms and being able to chat and I love it that Catherine is able to interact with the other babies, which she appears to really enjoy. Try it once and you will be hooked.- Stephanie

Words to live by

Nelson Mandela used this amazing quote from Marianne Williamson's book Return to Love during his inaugural speech in 1994 and it has become my mantra for 2010.

“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.”
