Alexander Technique + Nia Workshop

  • Forrest Chiropractic 7/42 Geils Court Deakin, ACT, 2600 Australia (map)

Embody ease and grace with Alexander Technique + Nia.

Alexander Technique is a gentle and mindful learning approach which is effective for managing pain and tension. It is a skill which provides greater ease and efficiency in the way we move our bodies in all activities of life. The Alexander Technique teaches us to become aware of our habitual patterns that interfere with our natural co-ordination and by learning to prevent them we can improve our posture, performance and alertness. In this workshop Julianne will provide you with some basics that you will be able to incorprate into your everyday life.

Nia is a unique combination of 9 movement forms inspired by the dance arts, martial arts and healing arts, creating a synergy that moves far beyond a mere physical fitness class. The Alexander Technique is one of the three healing arts and its emphasis on effortless movement meshed perfectly with Nia's concept of doing things the easy way. It gave us 'The Dance of Movement from the Top'. After our session with Julianne, we will have an opportunity to play and explore in a Classic Nia class led by Fiona.

Everybody is welcome. No previous experience is necessary.

Wear comfortable clothes for moving in. While Nia is a barefoot practice, shoes are optional if this is your preference.
