I cannot recommend Madizenyoga enough. For me, my ono-on-ones with Maddie have been life changing. In a short 6 weeks, I have seen crazy changes in my body strength. Those poses I hated to do because they sucked and hurt are now some of my favourite. In my own practice, I find myself practicing them with her little voice in the back of my head telling me to “find comfort in the discomfort.” I came to her with two goals and my current lessons have been focused on building up the strength for me to accomplish them. No matter what you want to work on, Maddie is your girl. Maddie is real and inviting; she creates an environment that is accepting, open and comforting.Not once have I felt out of place in her lessons or felt like my body can’t do that. She also shares poems and motivational sayings throughout– I’m not saying she’s psychic, but not once have her poems been off base. It’s almost like she knows exactly what to say and when to say it. You come out of her classes with a new take on your day. If my budget allowed for it, I would have private lessons with her every day just to have “that zen” in my life daily. The more classes you do with her the better! I committed to ten sessions out of the gate and after four, I signed up for ten more. I’d ask you to trust me, but I’d honestly rather you find out for yourself. You won’t regret it!
