Relieve chronic Pain course
Before the Course, I was stuck in a lackluster mental response to managing arthritis pain/stiffness, headaches, and COVID isolation . . . I enjoyed both the relaxing meditative moments and jazzed-up movement segments in the course. As with a lot of people, I tend to be in my head. I found myself reframing “flat” self-talk for more uplifting phrases that helped my overall mood. Many thought-provoking opportunities were included in the program and I felt valued by Teresa through my participation.

“This was my first experience dancing to live drums. I didn’t know what to expect. But something happened that is hard to explain. It was as if I stepped into a beautiful space and thought this is what has been missing... and right now I believe it was the combination of Terri and Chuck. I can’t image anyone else creating that space for me. Yup, I am hooked.”
“For someone who had lacked the self-confidence and desire to try something new, the Nia Meditation was a night of being able to explore my own path. It was the first time I moved without anybody’s disapproval or criticism. Thank you for allowing me to grow!”
“I received permission to get out my head (which I am always in), to stop analyzing, to surrender to the moment, relax and have a purely enjoyable time just being me.”
“Calming the mind to meditate is not always easy! The Nia Moving Meditation was a way for the body-mind-and-spirit to make that spiritual connection. I love it!”
“Teresa has an inner glow that exudes joy, happiness and peacefulness all at the same time. Everyone shines in her presence.”
“You are my teacher not only because I take your classes but because like the Marianne Williamson quote says, you let your light shine so brightly that it gives me permission to let my light shine.”
“I connected with my body and with myself. It felt so good. Your classes are such a gift! We had such a nice group. You make the sessions so safe and wonderful and healing for us. I am so grateful. ”
