Nia FreeDance

I am a nationally certified 1st Degree Nia Black-Belt teacher and a Nia White Belt and Nia FreeDanceTrainer.  In addition I am certified in Nia Moving to Heal and Nia 5 Stages of Healing.  I offer Nia classes, Nia White Belt and Nia FreeDance trainings, and Nia workshops. I have 25 years of Nia Technique experience and bring creativity, laughter, compassion and enthusiasm to my Nia work. My mission is to share the joy of Nia with everyBody and to help others reclaim their body's natural way of moving and live a life of pleasure. As a teacher of Nia, joy of movement and truly caring for people are my motivations and I believe we are as young as our spirit allows us to be. It is through an open mind and a true connection to joy that we can free, strengthen and heal our body, mind and spirit. Nia has awakened my inner child, and has made me feel timeless, ageless and weightless. I now stay fit by dancing, laughing, skipping and playing on the floor. I want everyBody to feel love, joy and pleasure in their body, and live into their potential!

I am a Sacred Warrior, a teacher and healer to all people. The most precious gift I have received from Nia is self-love, which has manifested into my life purpose to awaken the human healing potential.   I fulfill this purpose every time I step into a Nia class, workshop and training.

I teach in movement studios, fitness clubs, corporations, with breast cancer survivors, and I volunteer at Haven of Hope, a place of hope and new beginnings in San Antonio for those experiencing homelessness. I have been a guest Nia and Yoga instructor at Lake Austin Spa Resort for 15 years, and a guest staff movement instructor at Omega Institute.   I offer workshops, classes and presentations throughout the US and Mexico, and am experienced with working with individual, small or large special groups.

I am also a RYT® 200 Hour Yoga Teacher with a specialty in trauma­-sensitive yoga techniques, trained in the YogaFit Warrior Program, a Melt Method Hand and Foot Instructor, Journey Dance Facilitator, Laughter Yoga Leader, Mindful Change Coach, doTerra Independent Product Consultant, and a Certified Project Management Professional.
