* '''Non-impact, sustainable movement''' — supporting long-term physical health and injury prevention.
* '''Indlela Yomzimba''' — ukuhlonipha ubuhlakani bomzimba obungaphakathi kunokubeka imibono yangaphandle.
* '''The Body’s Way''' — honouring the body’s innate intelligence rather than imposing external ideals.
* '''Injabulo kanye nomuzwa''' — kusetshenziswa umuzwa ojabulisayo njengempendulo yokunyakaza okunempilo.
* '''Pleasure and sensation''' — using pleasurable sensation as feedback for healthy movement.
* '''Ukuhlanganiswa kwengqondo nomzimba''' — ukuxhumanisa ukuqwashisa, umuzwa, kanye nesenzo somzimba.
* '''Mind–body integration''' — linking awareness, feeling, and physical action.

Ekuqaleni yathuthukiswa njengendlela yokuzivocavoca umzimba, i-Nia isiphenduke umkhuba wokunyakaza okuphelele ogcizelela ukwenziwa, injabulo, ukuqwashisa, kanye nokunyakaza okusimeme. Kwenziwa emhlabeni wonke ngezifundo, ama-workshop, kanye nezinhlelo zokuqeqesha othisha.

Imvelaphi

INia yasungulwa ngo-1983 eSan Francisco Bay Area ngu-Debbie Rosas kanye no-Carlos AyaRosas. Lo mkhuba waqala ngaphansi kwegama elithi Non-Impact Aerobics, unikeza enye indlela ephephile kunezindlela zokuzivocavoca ezithinta kakhulu ezazivame kakhulu ngawo-1980.

Ngokuhamba kwesikhathi, igama elithi Nia lavela ukuze libonise ifilosofi ebanzi kanye nendlela echazwe ngaphakathi kohlelo ngokuthi Isenzo Sokuhlanganisa Imisipha, okugcizelela ukuhlanganiswa komzimba, ingqondo, imizwa kanye nokuqwashisa.

Umlando

Kusukela ngo-1972 kuya ku-1983, uDebbie Rosas wayeqhuba ibhizinisi lokuzivocavoca nokunyakaza elaziwa ngokuthi i-Bod Squad eSan Francisco Bay Area. Ngemva kochungechunge lokulimala okuhlobene nezemidlalo, waqala ukucwaninga nokuthuthukisa indlela yokunyakaza eyayibeka phambili ukuphepha, injabulo, kanye nokuqwashisa okugxile emzimbeni.

Lolu cwaningo luholele ekudalweni kwe-Nia Technique, okuhlanganisa izimiso ze-aerobic conditioning, ukunyakaza okubonakalayo, kanye nokuqwashisa nge-somatic kube umkhuba ohlangene.

Ngo-'1991, indlunkulu yeNia yathuthela e-Portland, e-Oregon, lapho inhlangano iqhubeka nokuphathwa nguDebbie Rosas esikhundleni sakhe njenge-CEO.

Izimiso eziyinhloko

I-Nia isekelwe ezimisweni eziningana eziqondisayo:

  • Ukunyakaza okungenamthelela, okusimeme — kusekela impilo yomzimba yesikhathi eside kanye nokuvimbela ukulimala.
  • Indlela Yomzimba — ukuhlonipha ubuhlakani bomzimba obungaphakathi kunokubeka imibono yangaphandle.
  • Injabulo kanye nomuzwa — kusetshenziswa umuzwa ojabulisayo njengempendulo yokunyakaza okunempilo.
  • Ukuhlanganiswa kwengqondo nomzimba — ukuxhumanisa ukuqwashisa, umuzwa, kanye nesenzo somzimba.
  • Ukukhetha — ukukhuthaza umthwalo wemfanelo womuntu siqu kanye nokuzivumelanisa nezimo.

Ukunyakaza akubhekwe njengokusebenza, kodwa njengobudlelwano obukhuliswe impilo yonke.

Ukuzijwayeza

Ikilasi elijwayelekile le-Nia liqhutshwa ngaphandle kwezicathulo futhi liqondiswa umculo kanye nezimpawu zomlomo. Ngenkathi othisha bebonisa ukunyakaza, abahlanganyeli bakhuthazwa ukuba bakuvumelanise nemizimba yabo, amazinga amandla kanye nemizwa yabo.

Amakilasi avame ukufaka:

  • izigaba zokufudumeza nokugxila,
  • ukulandelana komdanso ovezayo,
  • izakhi eziphefumulelwe ubuciko bokulwa kanye ne-yoga,
  • ukuhlanganiswa kanye nokusekelwa.

Akukho dayagramu eqondile yokukhumbula; kugxilwe ekuqapheleni, ekujabuleleni, nasekuzilaleleni.

Amathonya okunyakaza

I-Nia ihlanganisa izinto ezivela 'izinhlobo zokunyakaza eziyisishiyagalolunye, ezihlelwe ngezigaba ezintathu:

  • Ubuciko Bokudansa — umdanso we-jazz, umdanso wesimanje, umdanso kaDuncan.
  • Ubuciko Bokulwa — i-aikido, i-taekwondo, i-tai chi.
  • Ubuciko Bokwelapha — i-yoga, Indlela kaFeldenkrais, i-Alexander Technique.

La mathonya ahlanganiswa abe ulimi lokunyakaza oluhlangene kunokufundiswa njengezifundo ezihlukene.

Ukuqeqeshwa kothisha

INia inikeza uhlelo oluhlelekile lwamazwe ngamazwe 'lokuqeqeshwa kothisha kanye nesitifiketi. Ukuqeqeshwa kugxile ku:

  • ukuqwashisa okubonakalayo kwe-anatomy kanye ne-somatic,
  • ukuhlanganiswa komculo kanye nokunyakaza,
  • amakhono okufundisa kanye nokuklama ikilasi,
  • umkhuba womuntu siqu kanye nokuhlanganiswa kwendlela yokuphila.

Othisha abaqinisekisiwe bagunyaziwe ukufundisa amakilasi e-Nia emhlabeni jikelele futhi bayingxenye yomphakathi oqhubekayo wobungcweti.

Umphakathi kanye nokufinyelela

I-Nia isetshenziswa emhlabeni wonke, okuhlanganisa ne-Australia, iYurophu, iMelika kanye ne-Asia. Umphakathi we-Nia womhlaba wonke usekelwa ngokuqeqeshwa, imicimbi, kanye nezinkundla eziku-inthanethi eziqondiswa yinhlangano ye-Nia.

Ubudlelwano nomdanso oqondayo

I-Nia ithatha indawo yokuxhumanisa phakathi komdanso oqondayo, ukunyakaza komzimba, kanye nokuqina kwengqondo. Nakuba ivame ukwethulwa njengomkhuba wokuqina ngokomzimba osekelwe ekunyakazeni, yabelana ngezindinganiso ezibalulekile namasiko omdanso oqondayo, okuhlanganisa ukwenziwa, ukukhetha, ukungahluleli, kanye nenkululeko yokuziveza.
