Madalyn's classes are best described as creative Vinyasa flow with a strong Iyengar influence. Madalyn is interested in approaching movement from a place of internal awareness and intimacy with one's own being. She hopes to foster a greater sense of interconnectedness through dynamic sequences and intentional in-depth explorations. Madalyn believes that within the asana lies a pathway to self-love and liberation. Madalyn also has a deep love for Italy and is Southern Italian on both sides.

Madalyn and Alyd hosted the most amazing retreat! First, the villa was extremely peaceful - the indoor/outdoor living, the lemon garden where we did yoga daily, the gardens on the property, the gorgeous pool, and star gazing at night made the whole experience so relaxing. The food was AMAZING. Madalyn and Alyd curated the most amazing restaurants, private chefs, and at home meals. I think about the organic farm-to-table wines, olive oil, cheeses, and cured meats still. The daily excursions were also a highlight, between boating, swimming, hot springs, a volcanic lake, shopping, and a night out, it was incredible to have seen SO much of Pantelleria on this trip. Of course, the yoga was incredible - Madalyn is such a professional and you can tell yoga is her life's purpose. All of us improved in our practice on this trip and it really invigorated me to continue working on my practice after the retreat. Lastly, the group was fantastic on this trip. We laughed constantly and had deep conversations about how we want to incorporate the zen from this retreat into our daily lives. I would sign up for another retreat hosted by Madalyn and Alyd in a heartbeat - just tell me when and where!

Madalyn is an absolutely amazing host / trip planner. We had the best time on this retreat. Everything went super smoothly and she made sure we were comfortable the whole time. We had great mixes of excursions and downtime, with everything optional. The food was super great and she knew the best spots to take us. Getting around was made super easy with the help of her friend who drove us in an XL van around windy italian roads. She is the ultimate host !
