As fall is settling in here in Albuquerque, I have sense the desire to ground myself and stay focused. I get an overwhelming sense of excitement during this time of year, with the increased sensations around me - roasting chiles, changing leaves, crisp morning and evening air. I also find myself looking forward to the season ahead. The fall season has also brought a lot of newness to my life, adding to the feeling of shifting. With all of this going on, I have a strong desire to root myself and focus. Earthsong has been exactly what my mind and body has needed and I want to share the experience with you!
Earthsong is a wonderful routine for all levels of Nia experience. It focuses on "The One Point" with the intent of focusing movement from your body's center of gravity. For this routine, the movement form of Aikido is highlighted because it teachs us how to sense the One Point in our movement.
We will discuss what the One Point is, where it can be found physically in the body, and then we will play with movement while we harness the energy of this seat of energy. You will feel invigorated, balanced, and grounded as you leave the Earthsong routine.
I look forward to seeing you on the dance floor soon.
