The Nia Belt
System For Everyone! For Personal Growth.... To Teach..... Everyone begins with White
Belt. Nia White Belt Training The
First Step Joyful. Transformational. It is unlike any other educational training you have ever experienced. Nia White Belt Intensive
Training is the first step on the Nia Training path. All Nia training is highly interactive and delivers foundational principles
through both cognitive and experiential learning models. Nia Education: Stepping In... Depending on your goals,
Nia is everything from a fun class experience to a philosophy, lifestyle and personal/professional study. While often practiced
in a group-fitness format, the true depth of Nia lies in a richly layered bodymind education, which for many becomes a personal
lifestyle and/or professional practice.
Nia
Intensive Training: The Experience Nia Intensives are offered
internationally, Helen Terry is one of a team of 16 Certified Nia Trainers who have dedicated
years to the personal and professional
study, practice, teaching and living of Nia’s principles and education. The Nia White Belt Intensive Training
takes place over 7 days and includes 40 hours of somatic education. Each day is divided into highly interactive sessions where
you will learn, move and practice the Science, Craft and Art of the Nia Body of Work. This is accomplished using both cognitive
and experiential learning models. This 7-day experience offers leading edge education. The Nia Intensive experience empowers
everyBody to take their practice and their life to the next level. In addition to primary sessions with the training group, The Nia Intensive includes public class experiences,
which provide demonstrations of Nia theory and methods as they are applied in a traditional group fitness setting. The Nia Belt System: Personal and Professional
Mastery The Nia Belt System follows traditional Martial Arts models, moving students through progressive levels
of education, skill sets and proficiency. Each Nia Belt level includes the study of Nia’s five core
competency areas: Anatomy, Movement, Music, Methodology and Philosophy. With the exception of Green Belt, which focuses specifically
on the art of teaching Nia, all Belt level Trainings are open to students with personal or professional goals.
- White Belt
- Green Belt (for Licensed Nia Teachers only)

Staying Connected: Continuing
The Journey Due to the depth of each level of curriculum, all Intensive Graduates are required
to wait 12 months time between Intensive Trainings to fully embody and practice the education learned in the previous Belt
level. Each level of Training is further supported by Post-Training curriculum, monthly TeleCourses, Newsletters, a Nia Forum, and personal support from the Nia International Headquarters team.
A Holistic Approach: The Nia Way Rooted in a somatic (body-based) approach to learning, Nia education is designed to allow students to develop
and participate in their own way, embodying cognitive information by engaging the whole person: - The Body
is used for exploration, discovery, and sensory-based experience
- The Mind is used to focus, witness
and direct attention
- Emotion is used to create a personal connection to experience, and thus becomes
a conduit of body-mind connection
- Spirit (that which is unique to a person) is used to recognize personal power,
foster self-healing and expand each person’s potential
