The White Belt Intensive training is for EVERYBODY!
Nia teacher training is fashioned after the martial arts system: five belt levels over a minimum of five years.

White Belt: learning is all about the Nia basics - the 52 Nia Moves, the 5 Sensations of Fitness, the 7 Cycles of a Nia Workout, Music, Movement & Magic, and much more. This creates a foundation for more advanced study of mind-body-spirit work.

Green Belt: Nia's new Training & Education Model. The Green Belt is part of the new Professional Path and is designed to support and teach the professional Nia Teacher how to teach, improve teaching skills and open professional doors.

Blue Belt: addresses all aspects related to teaching fitness the Body's Way, by emphasizing communication and attention to detail as means to creating and maintaining relationships.

Brown & Black Belts: the focus goes beyond the physical, both in your Nia classes and in your life, working energetically with the body, mind, emotions and spirit, using personal creativity and living Life as Art to create on-going life-style transformation and healing.

ACE and AFAA continuing education credits are available.

All Nia intensive training begins with a three month, pre-training program that includes the Nia at-home study course with video tapes and reading material. A 40+ hour, 6-day training program completes each level of every Nia intensive training and is offered at various sites around the world.

. 40+ hours of cognitive and experiential training instruction
. ACE (4.7 CEC's) & AFAA (38 CEU's) credits with approved provider
. Training course materials
