"200 hour YTT with Madia was transformational. She created an intimate environment that felt safe and nurturing allowing me to truly look inward and unite my mind, body, and spirit, the true meaning of yoga.

Madia holds space for me that is safe and comfortable, and she gently challenges me to seek and look at my true self with love and compassion. Our Coaching sessions help me deeply connect to my body and to my truest self. Connecting to myself with love and tenderness and compassion has lead me to the deep knowing of what is best for me as I navigate decisions in my life."
