“Though we’re taught the heart is a pump, it actually doesn’t pump; rather, it responds to pressure. The pressure the heart responds isn’t from one thing – the pressure comes from what is outside the body and what is inside the whole body - barometric pressure outside, emotional pressure from the outside, internal angst and pressure from the inside, physical pressure from plaque or cholesterol narrowing the amount of space in the arteries.”
In the Nia 5 Stages, you are invited to a place of sensitivity that enables you to observe and release the sensation of stress and embrace the sensations of Dynamic Ease, Pleasure, and comfort. Beginning with the Nia 5 Stages class, which most often is described as a luxurious healing hour of setting the focus for the 10am movement experience that follows.
When you sign up for a class you are automatically sent the Zoom link for class. You can also find links for class at the top of our private Facebook Group, in “Featured": https://www.facebook.com/groups/helenterry
You are welcome to attend either class. And, when you’re able to attend both classes, something magic happens! The entire Nia 5 stages class is like a rich 60 minute introduction to the 10am Nia class, a beautiful compliment and super preparation.

your mind can learn new and novel information,
your heart may open to receive more with fascination up and frustration down
your spirit could be tickled and curious to experience more
“We look at anatomy
to see how the body or body part is positioned,
then we sense it in our own bodies.”
