Reiki Classes for the City of Four Lakes

Madison is Wisconsin's capital. It sits on a narrow isthmus between Lakes Mendota and Monona, where the State Capitol dome and the University of Wisconsin campus face each other across the water. People in Mad City can join ASHA's live Zoom class or work through our self-study courses from home, from a campus apartment, or from a desk near the Capitol Square.

The Ho-Chunk people knew the four lakes region as Taychopera long before the city was named for President James Madison. A place shaped this much by water suits a practice that asks you to slow down and notice your breath. A Reiki session online fits easily around a busy Madison week.

Learning Live on Zoom in a College Town

Madison became the state capital in 1848, the same year the University of Wisconsin was founded, and the city still has a curious, learn-something-new streak. Students on Bascom Hill, researchers, and state workers near the Capitol can all join the live Zoom class with a laptop and a quiet corner.

Each live Zoom class is taught in real time by Donna Lakes, who has been teaching since 1999, so you can ask questions and practice hand positions as you go. If a Badgers game at Camp Randall Stadium fills your weekend, the self-study courses let you keep learning at your own pace.

Quiet Practice Alongside Madison's Saturdays

Saturdays on the Capitol Square bring the Dane County Farmers' Market, the largest producer-only farmers' market in the United States, with 130-plus vendors each week. After a morning among the stalls and the cheese curds, a self-study Reiki lesson at home is a calm way to settle into the afternoon.

Plenty of people in Madison already know the value of sitting still by the water, whether in the sunburst chairs of the Memorial Union Terrace on Lake Mendota or along the lakefront at Monona Terrace. Reiki practice builds on that same simple habit of pausing and paying attention.

A Low-Rise City and a Grounded Practice

Governor Lee Dreyfus once joked that Madison was 77 square miles surrounded by reality, and the city has kept its sense of humor, from The Onion's founding here in 1988 to the papier-mache Statue of Liberty that appeared to poke out of frozen Lake Mendota in 1979. Reiki with ASHA is meant to feel just as down to earth: practical, warm, and free of fuss.

Height limits keep downtown Madison low-rise so the Capitol dome stays in view, a fitting picture of what a steady daily practice can offer. Whether you live off State Street or near Lake Wingra, you can start with the live Zoom class or a self-study course and see what fits your life.
