Natural Time(out) Time
Dance of Health (and Marcia Coakley’s Nia Technique teaching) are on hiatus following a major move, retirement, transformation, and a redirect to my other life-long love and previous vocation as Marcia Coakley Pottery (under development) along with some health challenges (non-covid related, thankfully).
Be well, make good art, and do life creatively.
May joy find you every day so that you may share it with the world.

Functional, Awareness, and Sensation based personal/private fitness training, online and in person.
Awareness and new habits that integrate, strengthen, and stabilize the core (pelvis, chest, and head working together) with our breath. Skills to practice on your own between sessions, reinforcing:
• proper alignment
• the balance of effort and release,
• movements for whole body efficiency and economy of effort
Designing and practicing conscious alignment with subtle control and better coordination increases your body’s capacity to perform all of your activities safely and powerfully. You will also develop the five keys to functional fitness: flexibility, agility, mobility, strength, and stability.
“It is such a treat to find a way to embrace and honor my feminine nature thanks to your Nia class. I love watching how much fun you have with it. And the music…! It makes all the difference. I look forward to the next time I get to frolic with you and the gals.” – Christina F
“…my experience after only a few months of participation provides evidence that NIA is a (lifestyle) program that can make a difference in a person’s life. It may be small and subtle at first but because I have stayed with it, I have found that I started to think differently about my exercise ability, flexibility, and sense of accomplishment. I CAN get more fit, feel more confident about my ability to exercise in a variety of ways, and I actually enjoyed myself in the process. I look forward to my time spent experiencing the music, moving my whole body, and laughing at myself when I just cannot seem to get the pattern right on a particular day. ” – Maureen H
