Hotter, Better, More.... SEX, BODY & CONFIDENCE... with These Moves
I like this article on Nia, it's cute, fun and True!
Hotter, Better, More.... SEX, BODY & CONFIDENCE... with These Moves
First your pulse begins to quicken. Then sweat starts to trickle down your skin. Soon the rhythm takes over your body. Finally your mind drifts to another place. The adrenaline races through your body. Your body is overcome with a warm sensation that emanates from your center. A wave of happiness rolls over you with an intensity that only this can bring. You are move focused, more present than you could have ever predicted.
Iâm not talking about sex, silly. Iâm talking about practicing  Nia. And it doesnât matter whom youâre with or whether youâre any good at it. It doesnât even matter what kind of shape youâre in. The only thing that matters is the pleasure of the movement. The hip shaking. The shimmeying. The stretching and swaying and reaching.
Nia is a fitness/dance class that was co-created thirty years ago by fitness pro Debbie Rosas who was tired of seeing her teachers and her students get injured and get bored. Itâs based on 52 moves that draw from the dance, martial, and healing arts.
What does all of that mean? It means your body will love doing it, it wants to do it, it knows how to do it. Itâs all of the movements that our bodies long for and that we generally restrain ourselves from. It is that restraint and that release that hold both the problem and the secret respectively.
The problem is this: We keep our bodies still so much of the time, working, reading, driving, watching television. We no longer feel connected to our own bodies. And itâs awfully hard to feel sexy in your own skin when you hardly have the chance to stretch out in it.
And if youâre not feeling sexy, itâs less likely that youâll feel like initiating any fun between the sheets. You might even be giving off a âno sex wantedâ vibe without even knowing it.
The secret is this: By moving your body â even in non-sexual ways â youâre increasing your drive to engage it in sexual ways. Thereâs something about the freeing nature of Niaâs âdancing like no oneâs watchingâ style that prompts a freedom in the bedroom too.
Besides, even if anyone was watching, who cares what they think? If they knew the type of extra-curricular benefits you were reaping, theyâd be shaking it up too.
Nia gets you moving around and focusing less on the technical and more on the creative or, dare I say it, spiritual. Youâll be amazed, no matter how uncoordinated you imagine yourself to be, at what a few turns on the dance floor can awaken in you.
The reasons are simple. First, raising your heart rate creates an addictive high. Once you get it on the dance floor, youâll want to get it on in the bedroom. Second, there is power in muscle memory. Dancing Nia can bring on some very sensual movements. Start doing it on a regular basis and things will flow better than ever in the bedroom. And, third, body awareness is a big part of Nia. Itâs so easy to forget our own sexy assets. But dancing can spark your memory, especially with all of those mirrors that most gyms and dance studios have around. Once youâre in tune with your own body, your partner will want to be too.
And if itâs something you and your partner choose to do together, the results will be even better. Spending that time together, your breath short, your muscles engaged â can be a very powerful thing. And since you canât get naughty in Nia in public, the anticipation of returning home becomes all the more intense.
Doing Nia, or dancing of almost any kind for that matter, means being in better shape and enjoying a better sex life in terms of quality and quantity. And believe me, no talent or experience is required. All you have to do is show up and be willing to get into the groove and, when you get back home, youâll be getting your groove on in no time!

August White Belt in London
I've just completed a beautiful White Belt training with a group of Yoga and Pilates teachers. I am really looking forward to my first 2012 co-training with the dynamic Laurie Bass who is based in Portland and is the face of Nia on so many DVDs. This is going to be an extraordinary training and we will be opening Laurie and my classes to the public over the weekends of 17-19 August and 24-27 August.
Some very raw footage of the wonderful Nia Dance Jam/Flash Mob that took place over a weekend in November, 2010, in Portland, Oregon.
