In Nia we dance barefoot. The wonderful reason I love Nia is that it is sustainable and guides and conditions your body for all situations, environments and conditions. We tweak to make it feel better!
Please bring a bottle of water and we generally do some floor work at the end, so you may like to bring a yoga mat if you feel you need that extra for comfort as we have wooden floorboards – but not necessary to have. No yoga mats provided.
