In my effort to find the perfect exercise for new mothers, I’ve often read about NIA a combination of yoga, dance, and martial arts. Created by Debbie and Carlos Rosas in the 1980s, I started researching the technique because my friend, the poet Peach Friedman, found it instrumental in recovering from her eating disorder. And, if there is anyone who needs help coming to terms with the female body in all its femaleness, it is a new mother.
