The Dance of Yin and Yang and the Upper Extremities

The focus of tonight’s class is dancing with the energies of yin and yang with our upper extremities.

Nia is based on The Body's Way, which is a method of using the body according to its inherent design and function.

The Body's Way is guided by five fundamental principles, one of which is that the Body is balanced in Yin and Yang.

Indispensable and equally important, the body is comprised of both yin and yang energies.

Yin is the soft, feminine, inward-directed energy, manifested in smooth, melodic movements.

Yang is the harder, masculine, outward-directed energy, reflected in explosive, rhythmic movements.

We will work with sensing and dancing with both energies tonight. Join me at 6:30pm at Fresh Fitness and Dance in Wallingford.
