ORA Center ORA Center is the home of Chattanooga Yoga School and Madia’s integrative private practice — a space for yoga, somatic work, and embodied care.

A movement in embodied presence. Yoga Teacher Training
Our curriculum is primarily designed to offer participants a Foundational education that will prepare them for the journey of a yoga student and teacher, private practitioner or mind/body professional. We encourage practicing yogis to attend this training to deepen their understanding of yoga from asana to pranayama to Samadhi. The Chattanooga Yoga School is led by dedicated and attentive full-time yoga professionals who will prepare you to enter a studio classroom with confidence. Our practicum is like no other. Upon graduation, you will have sequenced and taught multiple hour-long yoga classes. If your goal is simply to deepen your practice, we will offer an advanced curriculum without the pressure to instruct classes. Students will practice a spectrum of asana classes and learn the philosophical foundations of this amazing mind/body medium. Every participant will leave with a comprehensive plan for success, including extensive study of nutrition, lifestyle and business. Our goal is to offer an experience that exceeds our students’ expectations. We are proud to bring you an integrative curriculum that surpasses the standards for Yoga Alliance Registration.

A journey of arriving, tuning in, coming home to the body, and deepening our relationship with ourselves, one another, and the world around us.

Each retreat opens a new doorway, building on the last while offering its own complete experience.

✨ Retreat #1 stands beautifully on its own. You don’t need to have taken the first step before to begin here. Every threshold is an invitation to meet yourself exactly where you are.

Come as you are. Begin where you are. Let the journey unfold.

What part of you is ready to lead? ✨

The part that’s ready to grow. The part that’s ready to trust. The part that’s ready to step beyond what’s familiar and into what’s possible.

Yoga teacher training is more than learning how to teach yoga. It’s an invitation to deepen your practice, explore your potential, and discover what becomes possible when you choose to lead from within.

You don’t have to have it all figured out. You just have to be willing to begin.

Your next chapter might be calling. 🌿

What threshold are you standing at right now?

There are moments when something in us knows: it’s time.

Time to release what no longer fits.
Time to listen more deeply.
Time to step toward what’s asking to emerge.

On October 1, Crossing the Threshold: A Somatic Immersion invites you into a half-day experience of grounded movement, breathwork, somatic strength, nervous-system regulation, and inner listening.

This isn’t about forcing yourself across the threshold.

It’s about slowing down enough to feel where you are, listen to what’s true, and discover what becomes possible when you meet yourself fully.

Come as you are.
Leave with a deeper connection to your body, your inner knowing, and the threshold you’re ready to cross.

What threshold are you standing at right now?

What shifts when you move with others?
Something changes when movement becomes shared.

You listen differently.
You notice more.
You find rhythm, connection, and support.

Moving together creates connection.

Come move with us in a group class and experience what becomes possible when you’re not moving alone.

What kind of teacher do you want to be?

Not just what will you teach.
Not just how will you sequence a class.
Not just what will you say.
How do you want your students to feel in your presence?

Seen.
Safe.
Supported.
Challenged.
Inspired.
More at home in themselves.

Because becoming a yoga teacher is not simply about collecting knowledge.

It’s about cultivating the capacity to listen deeply, stay present, hold space, and teach from what you have lived.

It’s about finding your voice.

Trusting your intuition.

Learning to meet yourself with enough compassion that you can meet others there, too.

And perhaps most importantly...becoming the kind of teacher you once needed.

If you feel the call to go deeper, not only into the practice of yoga, but into yourself, we invite you to explore the journey of becoming a teacher with us at ORA.

What kind of teacher are you being called to become?
