Nia
Retreat with Katia and Felicia
November
- December 2010
Sometimes
we don't just need a holiday, we need a retreat. A time to step outside ordinary
life and relationships and take time to reflect, rest, cleanse and come back
into balance with nature. A time to hear the voice of our soul and nourish
ourselves with a new life-force that breaths abundance, joy, freedom, harmony
and love into our body.
A
Nia retreat adventure is special because it combines the wonderful self-therapy
of dancing together with the healing properties of nature's elements to bring
harmony and balance within.
We
will discover the ocean and waterfalls -
WATER
soothes and calms, it is purifying and healing
We
will explore the rainforest-
Earth
grounds us, gives us safety and stability
We
will listen for the whisper of the ocean breeze and the voice of the gentle wind
on the mountain top-
AIR
invigorates the mind
We
will dance around a camp fire to the rhythm of our heartbeat-
FIRE
is pure energy, it ushers in new possibilities and it often represents the will
and energy of the heart.

Vocal
Freedom and Movement Workshop A
sound-expanding experience! Based on the proven science that
vocalizing & movement combined offer deep healing. The workshop is
designed to give you an understanding of your voice and teach you how to
use it to add vitality and depth to your movements. Everyone
sings. Whether you want to for pleasure or profession, it is one of the
oldest forms of human communication and celebration. Don't let anyone
tell you otherwise! Learning the proper tools for vocal freedom will
help guide your body back to a more innocent and centered place and
ultimately give you a chance to explore yourself in ways you never
thought possible. Your voice can unlock & unblock, you just have to
find it! |

Your
Feet: The
Hands that Touch the Earth
In
Nia we call the feet "the hands that touch the earth". They
have also been called "a masterpiece of Engineering and a work of
Art" by Leonardo Da Vinci and with reason! Balance in the whole
body begins with our feet.
Workshop
will be lead by Nia instructors Katia Campobassi and Felicia Shulman. |
