“My mission is to inspire people to experience their own creativity and conditioning through movement, and Nia is a healthy and FUN way to get there. I'm forever grateful to Debbie and Carlos for creating this amazing life practice that extends well beyond the studio."

Teresa D'Angelo found Nia through a chronic illness, which has been a key ingredient in her healing journey and in educating people to move (again). Through years of experience working in highly stressful environments then being unable to move without severe pain, Teresa loves to turn people on to the Nia experience to find joy, self-healing, community, and their own unique expression in living their full potential, no matter what the situation.

She is a Nia 1st Degree Black Belt instructor, Registered Polarity Therapy Practitioner with NJ certification in massage therapy. Teresa transitioned from a business management role of many years with the world's largest professional services firm to passionately leading Nia classes, moving meditations and workshops, presenting at conferences and hosting annual retreats.

Teresa's careers include radio and television broadcasting, commercials and training videos, and educational publishing. She resides in New Jersey with her husband and two dogs and has a son at Penn State.
