Return to Nia!
Tonight I went to my first Nia class since my knee injury sidelined me. (I got the permission of my physical therapist first.)
It was great!
In fact, not only had I forgotten how pleasurable it was, I was delighted by how quickly the moves came back to me. I had a bit of trouble with a combination step, but other than that, I remembered both the techniques and the patterns/rhythms.
Now I'm feeling pleasantly sweaty, with my whole body stretched out and alive.
Can't wait for next week!
Here's a video that does a good job capturing what a class can be like. Tonight's routine was much slower than most of this.
I'm also working on adding tai chi to my schedule. I like trail walking, but I'd like to get involved in more activities that get my whole body involved in a systematic way.
Now for a late, light supper and then some Buffy with Wolfling.
