tone of strength training, and top-notch aerobic fitness—all
through the revolutionary pleasure-based fitness program that gets
you in shape from the inside out!
　　The hottest new trend in mind-body wellness, Nia—which stands for
Neuromuscular Integrative Action—is the most advanced form of
fusion fitness, blending martial arts, healing arts, dance, and
spiritual self-healing to create a high-powered, synergistic
workout that no isolated exercise technique can match. Created by
fitness pioneers Debbie Rosas and Carlos Rosas, Nia presents an
entirely new philosophy of exercise—one that will not only keep you
in fantastic shape, but will also help you rediscover the joy of
movement and being at home in your body.
　　The Nia Technique is the first and only book to share the
workouts so popular at gyms and spas across the country, outlining
the basic Nia moves—or katas—that can be performed easily at home
and adapted to your own level of fitness. With moves drawn from
nine fitness disciplines, including tae kwan do, tai chi, yoga,
Feldenkrais?, jazz dance, and modern dance, Nia promotes strength
and muscle definition without the use of weights, and its freeing,
dance-like regimen provides a medium for self-healing. You’ll
tighten, tone, lengthen, strengthen, and lose pounds and inches—and
have fun doing it! You’ll learn to follow “the body’s way”—a
breakthrough fitness concept that teaches you to move in the way
that most benefits your individual body; and you’ll learn to use
visualizations and vocalizations that enhance the benefits of each
workout. The overall regimen is phenomenally effective because its
holistic approach unites the body and the mind, and creates an
exhilarating path that anyone can follow toward a healthy, fit
physique, lasting weight loss, and an unlimited sense of your
fitness potential.
　　With simple, step-by-step instructions, The Nia Technique also
shares the inspiring stories of people whose lives have been
transformed by the practice of Nia. With Nia, a new body is just
the beginning—the ultimate goal is a new life!
