Nia Movement Therapy

Overview



Nia Movement Therapy at Focus Healthcare

Nia is a sensory-based movement practice that leads to health, wellness and fitness. It empowers people of all shapes and sizes by connecting the body, mind, emotions and spirit. Nia draws from disciplines of the martial arts, dance arts and healing arts. Every class offers a unique combination of 52 moves that correspond with the main areas of the body: the base, the core and the upper extremities. Nia’s purpose is to grow a worldwide community of healthy people who are empowered to do great things. We believe every person can discover, explore and enhance their individual potential to live a fulfilling and meaningful life – by engaging their senses and listening to their bodies.

"My life has changed to much since Focus. I am off all medication for the first time in my life. I have not thought this clearly in ten years. I have a voice now. I speak my truth. I still struggle with food issues, but use my Food and Feelings every day. Since Focus I am more confident and clear thinking. I am active in my own recovery."
