In this episode of the ROCC Pod, we connect with Lindsay Madison, founder of Visions Incorporated, a yoga studio with a unique focus on accessibility and community inclusivity. Lindsay shares her inspiring journey, starting with her early career in retail management in Chicago, where she rose to a high-powered role at Bloomingdale’s by age 21. However, her career path shifted unexpectedly when she experienced a sudden and rare loss of hearing due to a sinus infection. This challenging health event ultimately led her to yoga, which became both a personal refuge and, later, her profession.

After years of practicing and teaching yoga, Lindsay returned to Michigan, where her journey took on new meaning when her mother was diagnosed with lung cancer. Lindsay guided her mother through gentle exercises and breathing techniques post-surgery, which reinforced her mission to make yoga accessible to people of all backgrounds and health conditions. Today, her mother, a cancer survivor with one lung, regularly participates in Lindsay’s classes, embodying resilience and inspiring others in the process.

Visions Incorporated, Lindsay’s studio, offers both in-person and virtual classes that cater to a wide array of needs and levels. Classes range from brief, targeted sessions to longer, full-length practices, available through Zoom, on-demand, and free videos on YouTube. Lindsay provides options for all, including those who may face financial challenges, and she offers a variety of packages and a “pay later” option for live classes. Her approach is deeply personal; she emphasizes the physical and mental benefits of yoga, helping participants build strength, calm their minds, and practice breathwork to manage daily stress.

Lindsay also teaches chair yoga at senior communities, aiming to expand this offering through a 2025 goal of training other instructors in her inclusive teaching style. For those new to yoga, Lindsay reassures that flexibility and experience aren’t prerequisites; her classes are about self-connection and adapting yoga to individual needs, creating an inviting space for anyone interested in starting their practice.

Lindsay credits the Royal Oak Chamber of Commerce for helping her make valuable connections within the community and expresses excitement about growing her impact through these networks. For those interested in learning more, she can be reached via her website, visionsincorporated.com, and on social media, where she responds personally to inquiries.

In summary, Lindsay’s story is one of resilience, adaptability, and community spirit, and her dedication to accessible yoga has fostered an inclusive environment where everyone—from cancer survivors to yoga novices—can find their place on the mat.
