Your tutor

Linda Madani is an inspired spiritual healer and yoga teacher. She has been living and practicing yoga on Bali since 1995, studying Pranala with respected Balinese healer Tjokorda Rai. Linda is a highly experienced teacher with students from throughout the world. She is registered yoga teacher with the International Yoga Alliance (E-R.Y.T. 500), a certified yoga therapist in both India and the USA and a member of the International Yoga Therapist Association. Linda teaches throughout Asia and regularly leads yoga retreats on Bali . She is the owner and director of Intuitive Flow, Sanctuary for Yoga and Healing in Penestanan, Ubud, Bali where welcomes people with an open heart and shares the teachings and blessings she has received with much joy

The Yoga Style

Yoga Pranala is a combination of Vinyasa Flow (inspired by several yoga schools including the Sri T. Krishnamacharya lineage, Bihar School of Yoga and Hatha Yoga) and Mudra Pranala (Healing art based on energy movement transmitted by Balinese shaman Tjokorda Rai). Yoga Pranala effectively increases inner and outer strength, enhances mental clarity, relaxation, total presence and harmony. Linda Madani's passion is to pass on her deep understanding of this powerful combination of self-healing techniques. She can help you learn how to focus on breath and re-connect with the energy of the earth and the universe. Through Yoga Pranala you activate life force by connecting the two major energy poles inside the body, which manifest as ‘Prana'. In ancient Balinese, Pra means first, Prana power, Nala inner fire and Pranala circulation or energy flow. Prana and energy movement is the essence of healing mind, body and spirit.

this was the first time I ever went so deep…

" This was the first time I ever went so deep to be able to actually feel release of sadness and pain from resentments, past traumas, bad memories and all that was holding me back from happiness. I forgave all those who hurt me and asked for forgiveness from those I have hurt. I could feel smile coming from the inside. I experienced myself healing through the yoga mudras, yoga nidra and asana. I experienced the healing power of yoga. It is real from me now. Thank you for the bottom of my heart "

"The "Healing Power of Yoga" retreat with Linda Madani was very powerful and provided us with tools that we can bring home and use for our own personal healing. Meeting with Linda's teacher and the final ceremonies were undoubtedly the highlight of this retreat. All the activities (yoga classes, spa treatments, rituals) created the perfect atmosphere for healing. I enjoyed the balance between free time and organized activities. If I were to use one word to describe this retreat, I would use "empowering" I will definitely recommend this type of retreat."
