About Nia

Nia is "movement-medicine for the body and soul.” Nia simultaneously addresses the body, mind, emotions, and spirit, and puts them on the same page using music, movement and personal expression to integrate one’s neurology (including the mind, emotions, and spirit) with one’s outer body, or musculature. To achieve this whole-being integration, Nia addresses the whole person using a comprehensive, holistic exercise approach designed with a combination of nine classic movement forms.

About Anusara Yoga

Gail studies and practices Anusara (a-nu-sar-a) yoga, which means "flowing with Grace," "going with the flow," "following your heart". It unifies the Tantric yoga philosophy of intrinsic goodness with Universal Principles of AlignmentTM. Founded in 1997 by John Friend, it is one of the most popular and fastest-growing styles of yoga with 1,000 teachers and 200,000 students in 70 countries. Anusara Yoga's remarkable popularity is due in large part to its uplifting philosophy, epitomized by a "celebration of the heart," which looks for the good in all people and all things. Consequently, students of all levels of ability and yoga experience are honored for their unique differences, limitations, and talents. This life-affirming vision sets the basis for a yoga system in which the harmony and joy of a tightly knit community is exulted. For more information, visit http://www.anusara.com/
