The Ageless Grace program – 21 Simple Tools for Lifelong Comfort and Ease – can be done by almost anyone of any age or ability. The movement sequences focus on the healthy longevity of the body, mind, emotions and spirit. All of the exercises are designed to be practiced in a chair and they consist of movements that are natural and organic. There’s no need to learn any special choreography.
Each of the 21 Tools focuses on different anti-againg techniques, e.g., joint mobility, spinal flexibility, right-left brain coordination, cognitive funtion, systemic stimulation, balance, confidence, and playfulness. The easy-to-lean Tools of Ageless Grace promote the “Three R’s” of lifelong comfort and ease – not reading, ‘riting and rithmetic’ – but the ability to respond, recover and react efficiently and safely.

Through Movement We Find Health
Vivi,
In listening to the aya cd tonight i couldn’t help but think of of our aya classes i just wanted to let you know how much i love your
classes– you bring such a wonderful positive energy to your classes! I love the whole feel of nia as you present it –the life force, the positivity, the exciting movements, and the philosophy woven through of squeezing out all the good in life thank you !
Be well,
Barbara
Thank you Vivi!
The class has been transformative and healing for me on many levels and I’m grateful to you for bringing Nia to our community. Also, I know that it wouldn’t be the same with another instructor. You’re tremendous love and positive energy inspires me to move my body and bring joy into my life. I find Nia to be a great tool for healing and I”m serious when i say that I will hand out your cards to my patients as if it were a prescription for medicine. I work with many women struggling with infertility and I think Nia is a great tool to move qi and blood and bring LIFE to the uterus, heart, and body.
