What People are saying about Terra Karda Studio:

“I highly recommend the Yoga for Runners class. I started running fairly late in life, at 47. I love running and I love racing. When I turned 49, as a challenge, I ran ten 1/2 marathons in 10 weeks. I was 50 when I ran my first marathon. In the following 18 months, I ran 5 marathons, including Boston and New York City (2008). For the last two years I constantly felt “off balance” (recurring sore right knee, recurring sore left Achilles). I started the Yoga for Runners class in September 2009. The Yoga for Runners class has improved my flexibility and range of motion (Achilles tendon) and has started to strengthen and restore my muscle balance. Yoga is much more of a workout than I ever anticipated. After the first class, I felt I had run a 1/2 marathon. I think that the class would be good for non-runners too and I look forward to the 2010 season, for both running and yoga.”
Sheldon Gragg of Georgetown referring to 6:30pm Thursday evening class at Terra Karda Studio

“Many thanks to Denis Karda of Terra Karda Studio. She is one phenomenal Nia & Yoga teacher. She has helped me both physically and mentally.”

VIDEO - Nia and The Five Stages of Self-Healing

Posted: Jul 28, 10:41 AM

The five stages of self-healing, also known as the five developemental stages, is an intregral part of Nia, a revolutionary fusion fitness program.

What are the five stages of self-healing? They are the architecture of embryonic, creeping, crawling, standing and walking. These progressive stages of developement serve to strengthen, align and organize the body and brain.

A healthy youngster if allowed to develope in his or her own natural time, will be flexible, bright and happy with well developed senses and awareness. Signs of interrupted or rushed development can be spotted as physical imbalances, emotional problems, dyslexia and/or other learning disabilities. We can now go back and consciously recreate the development we may have missed or been rushed through.

Debbie Rosas, the co-founder of Nia tells us that if we learned nothing else but these five stages of self-healing and did them on a regular basis, we’d have the potential for transformation.

The following film demonstrates these five stages. ENJOY!
