About Natasha:
“I discovered the delightful, fun practice of NIA in 2017 and instantly fell in love with all aspects of it. My body, mind and spirit had been craving a movement practice that incorporated uplifting music, body connection and awareness, community and dance...and I found it! As a holistic nutritionist with a passion for health, I truly value the mind-body connection and recognize the critical importance of joyful movement for optimal health and well-being.
In 2019, I decided to leap into an intensive white belt training so that I could explore NIA further and share the benefits with others. What I experienced during the training was magical. Not only did we move, we also learned, explored, played, felt, released, and connected. In 2020, NIA trainings went online and I took the opportunity to enroll in NIA Green belt, 5 stages and Moving to Heal. These trainings led me to regular practice, with noticeable improvements in my energy, focus, mood, strength, and health. In May 2022 I travelled to Texas for an incredible NIA Blue Belt intensive. NIA leaves me feeling healthy, centered, grounded and oh so joyful!”

What others say about NIA with Natasha:
"I wanted to send a quick note to say how much I enjoyed your NIA class. I had never heard of it before, and was not really sure if I was going to attend. It was AMAZING ❤ You are really good at getting this whole healing vibe across, you made it cool and so not cheesy (sorry all respect to those other classes), the music was really engaging and well I think it was something I didn't know I needed, so thank you again very much." Vanessa F
"I'm not sporty nor a dancer but knew at 55 that I wanted and needed to get moving. I wanted a fun way that I didn't dread. Along came Natasha and NIA! I left each class smiling, feeling more agile and completely accepted and encouraged to move in my own way... at my own speed and level." Carolyn M
"This is the only movement/exercise form I've found since my accident that doesn't hurt!" Debra J
"What a fun and unique class! There's something really inviting about your class. I've always held back when it comes to dance but today I felt totally unrestricted and so free! I loved every minute of it!" Natalie S
