Niio Dance is for the deeply skilled coaches, creatives and facilitators who have big hearts and big dreams, but have forgotten who they are beneath their roles. Come home to your true self through a blend of ancient wisdom with somatic science, guiding you back to the belonging and creative aliveness within you, through the joy, freedom and playfulness of visionary somatic dance. Helping to reclaim your voice, grounded presence and purpose. Inspiring you to create ripples in the world with your gifts, healing and art., so that together we can create a more conscious earth. A world where we are more connected to our hearts, to each other and to the planet. Holding conscious intentional spaces for depth, renewal and recalibration.
Welcome to the ASHA Centre, an enchanting English estate in the Forest of Dean. ASHA's tranquil spaces and stunning gardens provide the perfect and meaningful backdrop for special events, celebrations, gatherings and educational programmes.
