MEET YOUR TRAINER

Nia Faculty Trainer Mia Steyn

Bringing balance and joy to the body to live your best life in the moment is not only a choice, but also your birthright! Welcome to the world of Nia, where transformation begins. As a Nia 2nd Degree Black Belt Teacher and Nia Art of Sensation White Belt Trainer, I am dedicated to guiding you through a somatic and personally transformative education. Whether you are taking your first steps into Nia for personal growth or exploring it as a professional endeavor, I am here to support and empower you on your journey. Nia has been a profound discovery in my life, allowing me to connect, discover, and express all parts of myself—the warrior goddess, the playful child, the silent introvert. In a single class, Nia takes me and my students on a sacred, fun, expressive, and introspective movement journey. We are connected to our sensations, moving with meaning and purpose from the inside out. It is a practice that encompasses mind, body, and spirit, inviting us to explore the depths of our being while embracing joy and self-expression. I have always been a mover, an artist creating spaces and experiences. Alongside my role as a Nia trainer, I am also a proud mother of two wonderful boys and a passionate lover of animals and nature. Previously, I established my own successful business in the events industry. However, a traumatic experience brought my life to a halt, leading me on a path of healing and self-discovery. It was during this time that Nia found me, guiding me towards restoration, balance, and joy. Nia has unlocked my body, releasing tension and trauma, bringing greater harmony and vitality to my life. It is through movement that we heal, and Nia's unique blend of design, form, and freedom can help declutter our lives and make us whole. I have explored various movement and healing approaches, but Nia's creativity, variety, holistic conditioning, self-healing, vitality, and empowerment have always drawn me back. It has made me feel ageless and free, igniting a passion within me to share this transformative practice with others. With thirteen years of teaching and training in all Nia modalities, I am thrilled to offer Nia classes and workshops both online and in person. Additionally, I am honored to bring the new Nia White Belt and Nia Art of Sensation training to South Africa. Together, let us embark on a magical journey of self-discovery and transformation through the practice of Nia. Join me, and let's create magic in our lives and in the world around us.
