Here are some comments from several of my students, expressing their thoughts and feelings about Nia classes at HeartSpace:
"Hi Jori,
Thank you so much for leading such a fantastic class yesterday. I'm so glad I got there. Over the years, more than I can even believe, I've had many teachers but none like you. You were my first and still the very best. I don't know if any one else realizes what empowerment you bring to the experience. With others, it's NIA, the exercise. With you it's holistic, healing, inspiring, nurturing, supporting and on and on. There is a night and day difference. I consider myself blessed to be among your friend and student. Reach for those stars!!!"
"Hi Jori.
I'm not able to come tonight but I did want to thank you for the wonderful Nia night and the great CD which I've enjoyed enormously. Looking forward to seeing you next Tuesday." – D.L. Grafton, WI
"Hi Jori,
Thank you so much for doing 'Soundings' on Wednesday. I absolutely loved it. I felt immersed in its spirit of healing and spirituality. Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful! See you on the 8th. Love," – M.B. Shorewood, WI
"Dear Jori,
I was planning on coming tonight, but the whole afternoon went awry and the person I was planning to bring bailed out, so I'm not there with you all moving, dancing, breathing, humming. I'm sorry to be missing this hour of NIA with you!
I'm going to try and bring my relative-friend some other time. I may also be able to come to an odd NIA class in the coming weeks. I'd love that, because I love NIA with you.
Thanks so much for the recent Saturday class. I still feel it in my calves and my soul." – U.T Shorewood, WI
"Thank you Jori!
It was such a healing experience to be in your class. I was amazed at all of the emotions I was finally able to set free and how I felt so much letter about myself after the class! You helped me do an intervention on myself and helped me to remember how it is to feel safe and nurtured. I will see you Tuesday evening!" – D.P. Thiensville, WI
"What is Nia? To me it is a lifesaver. I was struggling after two back surgeries ended my career as a dance teacher and choreographer. All of the equipment and classes that I tried were very difficult for me to do and it was boring. I was depressed and my health was beginning to go downhill.
Then I met Jori and tried my first Nia class. I was blown away. Jori kept saying slow down and listen to your body. And if it hurts don't do it! It was just what I needed to allow me to slowly get my body, mind, and spirit back on the road to HEALTH.
I am still on my journey to complete health, but I am much happier and physically better than I could have ever imagined." – S.S Germantown, WI
"Just to let you know I am driving to Michigan to help my mother. So I won’t be at the Saturday class this week. Sigh... a week without Nia is like a week without sunshine." – W.G. Mequon, WI
"I am out of shape, self conscious and yet felt oddly comfortable moving however I did in class tonight... because you invited me to... you made me and everyone else feel safe.
Thank you!"
"I just love the way you introduced me to Nia, I hope to come back in 2003, I am leaving for Peru for 6 wks. this Tuesday, but hope to learn more next year." – I., Mequon, WI
"I REALLY miss you and your classes – it was the only time in my life that I did not feel ashamed to be moving in front of others." – S.G. Milwaukee, WI
