Saturday morning Nia Classes are back at the Indian Boundary YMCA in Downers Grove!!
10:30am-12pm
Learn the Routine: R1
Focus: Mastering the Basics
Intention: Increase Your Skill, Fun and Pleasure by more deeply embodying the moves of Nia
For the first 30 minutes of Class, we'll Learn of the Song of the Week. After a little practice, we'll dance the entire routine. "Song of the Week" is the song that we Learn and Move during the first part of the Saturday morning class. This song will be integrated into whatever routine we will be working with in the following week. Eventually, we will dancing the entire R1 routine with a new sense of intimacy.
Saturday 1, 10/15 - We Are All Connected
Saturday 2, 10/29 - Calling
Saturday 3, 11/05 - Lovers House
Saturday 4, 11/12 - One World, One People
Saturday 5, 11/19 - City of Light
Saturday 6, 11/26 - Shakin' It Up
Saturday 7, 12/03 - Shine
Saturday 8, 12/10 - Madh Assalhin
Saturday 9, 12/17 - Speck of Gold
We'll begin with Awareness and Sensation in the Base of the Body and Learn how the first piece of choreography begins in the feet and legs. Without music, we'll "walk through" each move/piece from the bottom up. This is a new process so I'll be learning as I share with the class.
I created the Nia Workshop Sandbox to share this type of information, but we're going to lose the Discussion Board app and without it, sharing this kind of process will be too cumbersome. I'm posting the introduction on this blog, but I will probably create a separate blog for the follow-up and subsequent sharing.
