Soul aerobics: NIA twists, turns, and packs yoga with a punch

Article Abstract:

Nia, which stands for Neuromuscular Integrative Action, is a fusion of martial arts, dance arts, and healing arts set to music and this mind-body discipline was introduced in 1983 by Debbie Rosas and Carlos Rosas. Nia is about adapting movement to one's own personal rhythm and comfort level and it is this adaptability, which has made Nia so very popular and given it a cult-like following.
