Move, Feel, Heal

All of our classes at Life-force emphasize safety, comfort, and learning to move the way the body is designed to move. You learn body awareness and acceptance. This body awareness translates into more care and fascination with your body and its potential. Treat your body well and your mind and emotions will catch up.

Our Classes

  • Classic Nia

    This one-hour class conditions your whole body and being with pleasure, comfort, and joy. We move the way the body is designed to move and learn to personalize movement that feels good for us. Moving with the sensations of comfort and pleasure and from the idea that we deserve to care for ourselves teaches us to treat our bodies well. We no longer fight or force.

  • Nia Floorplay

    This one-hour class is designed to guide you in conditioning your whole body while playing with gravity, space, and time. The floor or earth gives us feedback to track sensations such as strength, flexibility, and stability as we move away from and to the floor, contract and release, and move into and away from. Regular attendance will increase strength, muscle tone, and flexibility.

  • Nia Moving to Heal

    Moving to Heal classes focuses on “less is more” and developing a collaborative relationship with your body. This “tai chi,” or gentle approach to movement, increases body awareness and circulation. We cultivate gratitude for our bodies and what they can do as we become conscious self-healers.

  • New to Nia : Learn the Technique

    This one-hour class is offered periodically to help you become familiar with the 52 moves of Nia. You will become confident to move your body in new ways.

  • Hatha Yoga

    Gentle yoga classes focus on body awareness and dynamic postural alignment.

  • Fit Fusion

    This 45 min class is a blend of Qi Gong, Yoga, and pilates. Prepare to become more aware, calm, and centered.

  • What is the definition of a safe place that creates joy in your heart, fluidity in your body, and gratitude in your soul? Life Force Sanctuary and Elaine Wolf is the answer! A year ago I fell and broke my hip in 4 places and my femur. I was told that 90% of the people that have this type of severe injury must use a cane for the rest of their lives. I vowed that I would be in the 10 % and Elaine helped me to realize my goal. After months of hospitalization, rehabilitation centers, and PT , I couldn’t really move all that well. My spirit, however, wanted to dance! I called Elaine and she said , “Come”. My first Nia class after the injury resulted in halted movement and big, heaving sobs. Elaine helped me to realize that the dance was helping me to release the trauma of the fall. She and the incredibly powerful LFS community transformed me from a fear ridden, broken bag of bones and metal to a blithe, peaceful, smiling “ dancer” who leaves her fears in the parking lot . Elaine Wolf, LFS, is a healing spiritual magician.

  • One of the beautiful things about Nia is that it addresses not only our physical being, but also our spiritual and emotional selves. I have done Nia with a number of different instructors, but none has included all aspects of the practice as expertly as Elaine. She is a radiant being, who lovingly creates a community that embraces not only the students in the studio, but those of us on Zoom as well. A precious gift and not to be missed.
