About Nia WellBeing with Sophie Marsh
Nia WellBeing with Sophie Marsh brings the joy of mindful movement to Paddington, running classes from the BrisWest Centre on Latrobe Terrace. Nia is a barefoot, music-driven practice that weaves together dance, martial arts and healing arts, offering a workout that feels less like exercise and more like an invitation to reconnect with your body. Everyone moves at their own comfort level, so dance experience is never a prerequisite.
Sophie is widely regarded as Australia's most experienced Nia teacher, and her classes draw devoted regulars who describe leaving feeling happy, grounded and genuinely well. The atmosphere is warm and inclusive, with newcomers made to feel welcome from their very first session and encouraged to find their own way into the movement.
The offering spans energetic, cardio-focused Nia through to gentle, restorative and trauma-informed sessions, plus mindfulness and movement coaching, so there is an entry point whatever your energy or stage of life. With a particular welcome for women seeking a kinder relationship with movement, Nia WellBeing suits anyone in Brisbane's inner west who wants to feel fitter, calmer and more connected through joyful, expressive movement set to fantastic music.
