September Dance Schedule at Anita's Studio and HQ StudioNIA

Hi Dancers,

In less than 24 hours we will be approaching September ~ a shift for many of us from summer to fall.  Oh I love this time savoring the last of the summer and yet generating new energy and desires for the last quarter of the year.

My new teaching schedule for September at Anita's Studio is listed below as well as an be additional class at StudioNIA, HQ alternating Wednesday evenings at 5:45pm. I will job/class share this class with Debbie Rosas​ and trainers when they hold their amazing intensives. So you will have a variety of master teachers to dance with and create community with ~ I am so excited to step in!

I haven't taught in the evenings in ages so I will be developing "new to me skills" again and shifting my energy.  I am excited to have an evening class at HQ StudioNIA, 918 SW Yamhill. Come and dance mornings or evenings, as I I want to dance with as many as I can and say YES to this lovely body of work that I have been practicing since 1988. I would love help spreading the word and building community.

Class Dedication #livingnia #throughmovementwefindhealth

Good Morning,

Please join me  tomorrow at our 9 am NIA Class for a MAGICal healing Dance for Del and Kaki Brenneman.  Kaki dances with all of us on a regular basis in our classes at the MAC.  We will be dedicating the class to Del, whose life force has been shifting into a "new normal" with Adenocarcinoma, yep the big C, stage 4. The optimal  treatment for Del is a new trial immunotherapy treatment and SUPPORT.  

I have thought long and hard about what can we do for Kaki and Del as a tribe.  The answer ~ a NIA class dedication ~ a collective and powerful way join together to create a healing dedication as we purposely dance  "Through Movement We Find Health".

If you like, wear something colorful and healing ~ pinks and purples are lovely but really express yourself in your own unique way.  Show up for yourSELF and for Del and Kaki.  

I will see you on the dance floor.

Thank you and Experience the Joy of Movement,

Anita

Summer Classes are happening

Hello Lovelies,

Dancing has been ongoing and strong since summer.  I recently completed our first MoveDeep Intensive at Anita's Studio on May 29-31st.  Eight beautiful women transformed their body mind and spirit through tuning in to their own body's wisdom.  We used the 52 Moves as our technical springboard and experiential exercises to Dive Deeper into our own Conscious Personal Trainer.

So the dancing at Anita's Classes continues on Wed and Fri at 9am.  Drop-ins are welcome to join in this 75 minute class.  On the first of every month we dance on Monday as well!

Classes at the MAC Club are expanding again too.  I will be adding a 9th class on Thurs at 7 am ~ MoveIT.  This 52 Moves interval class is also offered at 7 am on Tues and the members have been rocking at it!

Personally, my own body feels supple and free of pain ~ oh yes I do have achey joints at times when I just can't sit down during my 15 hour days.  To be expected.  Come and do this practice.  It will keep you healthy, happy and you will leave with a smile.

Always,
Anita

Spring is here ~ I have been so busy!

I can't believe I have been so busy.  I am teaching Sunday thru Friday ~ 12 classes a week and loving every class.  Beautiful tribes dancing the melodies of life!

I have added a MoveIT class at the MAC club on Tuesdays at 7 ~ and it is a hit!

I have created a few mail chimp email newsletter about the happenings ~ please click here to see more.
