Her Story...

Bonnie Wallace began taking Nia classes in 2000 and instantly fell in love with its free-flowing, powerful moves and invigorating music. As a board-certified music therapist, Bonnie connects with the healing elements of Nia, especially the Alexander Technique, which she studied privately in depth. Bonnie believes that each Nia class is an opportunity for providing a soulful journey based on her training in Guided Imagery in Music (GIM Level1).


When she re-located to the Worcester area, she realized that the closest Nia classes were not-so-close. This led her to complete her training as a certified Nia instructor, bringing the classes closer to home. This transformational step inspired her to create Worcester Mass Nia S.M.A.S.H. and to continually work on her Nia practice wherever she is. Her recent completion of the first degree in the Reiki method of natural healing brings an element of energy awareness to her classes. Bonnie greatly enjoys sharing the bliss that Nia brings her with people who love to move.
