Wow! we had an incredible Festival of Nia with Debbie Rosas. The events were filled with joy, relaxation and community fun. We laughed, learned and had a grand time. My favorite thing, after 25 years, was being together with both my Mum and Debbie. My favorite frames were witnessing folks from all over Texas (and Canada!) getting together, a 17 year old son showing up when his Mom was unable to attend and the FreeDance! it was like we RAISED the ROOF! with our collective joy and movement. Special thanks to Cammi who flew in from Canada (the person who travelled the furthest distance - other than my Mum!), the NiaMoves Houston tribe who carpooled and to the Dallas Tribe who came in convoy :-)
