Nerves

Saturday 12/07/24 Helen Terry is teaching both the 8:45am Nia 5 Stages class and the 10:00am class.

Continuing our December 30 day Challenge “Yes we CAN” We will focus on Nerves for both 5 Stages and the 10am Nia class “Bloom”

5S Nerves: sensitive communicators, every part of you speaks

Nia Bloom: Listen, Receive, Relax, Dance.

Intent YES! Thank you nerves!

In this class we are getting on our nerves in the best sense ;) diving into the inner world of fiber optic communication systems who are at work day and night, 24/7, within our bodies.

Your sensory nerves give you a language of sight,
hearing, taste, smell and touch.
The sensory nerves
influence the beat of your heart and your lungs
functioning, awake or asleep.

This movement experience is suitable for beginners and people of all different fitness backgrounds.

From looking, listening, learning
and gaining an understanding of anatomy,
we can then sense
to re-align all parts of our body.
— Nia 5 Stages

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.

Key concepts

Anatomy: Nerves, Electricity, Brain, Neuron, Dendrite, Autonomic, Central Nervous System (CNS), Peripheral Nervous System (PNS)

YBW: Your Body’s Way “the current design and function of your body” (always changing/new)

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.

To educate the body somatically,
we first become curious,
not through the mind
but by exploring sensation
for the sheer stimulation of it.
We notice and learn through the senses.
— Nia 5 Stages
The body is coded to keep us aware and safe.
Sensory information feeds that awareness
— Nia 5 Stages

When you sign up for a class you are automatically sent the Zoom link for class.

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.

In this gentle, self discovering, potentially healing Nia 5 stages experience

  • your body gets to settle into and taste the Nia class focus

  • 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.
