LAKE OF BAYS Almost nothing can stop you from exercising at the Dorset Community Centre.

Paula McIsaac will be offering a free 10-week Nia Technique, known as non-impact aerobics, at the Dorset Health Hub, beginning the week of March 27. Advanced registration is required as minimum numbers are necessary for classes to run.

Nia Technique is an approach to fitness that embraces dance movement, martial arts and the healing arts. Nia is kind on the joints and adaptable to every age, type of body or level of fitness.

Nia started in the mid-1980s when exercise business owner, Debbie Rosas, was forced to find an alternative method of exercise after a series of sports related injuries. Rosas, alongside her trainer, Carlos AyaRosas, researched and developed an alternative method of aerobic exercise and strength training aiming for safe, non-impact and body-mind based movement.

At the same time, Debbie Rosas called a friend who was a martial artist. It was at her first lesson that she realized she could incorporate new energy patterns and movements into class.

Nia with Paula McIssac will be offered at three locations this spring: the Dorset Recreation Centre, the MacTier Memorial Arena and the Ryde Community Co-op. Registration opens March 6. Call 705-645-2100 extension 199 to reserve your spot.
