Finding Your Way Home w/ Noah Mazé
We all go through seasons of ups and downs. Change is perhaps the only reliable constant in the universe. Even the most dedicated yogi is interrupted and pulled away from their practice. How can we find our way back to our mat with love for practice and community? This program is specifically designed to help you remember why you love yoga. Our weekend consists of four accessible and gradually progressive practices. This steady approach will help you build more confidence and strength around your practice. Together we will get back into the seats of own empowerment to find places in our minds and bodies that feel like home. You’ll leave this program with tools for continued investment, investigation and progress.
Cost: $55/session by Feb 15th, $65/session Feb 16th onward or $200/full weekend by Feb 15th, $240/full weekend Feb 16th onward
Friday night with Noah with Noah Mazé at yogaview Chicago
FriDate: 2/28/2025From: 6:00 pm – 8:00 pm
Maintaining balanced strength and mobility is a lifelong practice every yogi can benefit from. This weekend, together, we dive into intention and begin our journey home. This workshop focuses on six specific body regions. We learn together about the basic anatomy of body parts including hamstrings, hip flexors, core, upper back, and shoulders and how different practices and poses will help to open and unlock those body parts. Then we’ll practice a sequence that integrates these regions so that you experience the balance of your whole body. This class will conclude with 15 minutes of seated pranayama and meditation.

Enjoy the feeling of reigniting your fire in a space with Noah’s thorough cues and attention to detail.

This session focuses on postures that extend the hips and spine, opening the front chain of the body, expanding and contracting the back. Through an in-depth exploration of the balance of strength and mobility required in each body region, we will work intelligently and move safely. Expect step-by-step instructions, progressive sequencing, with focus on mobilizing and stabilizing your legs, hips and pelvis, while we strengthen our bodies and open up to the introspective power of these yoga poses. This class will conclude with 10 minutes of seated pranayama and meditation.
Sunday morning w/ Noah with Noah Mazé at yogaview Chicago
SunDate: 3/2/2025From: 10:00 am – 12:30 pm
This fun and lively sequence has a little extra kick- and is all about having fun with a few challenges while leaning into what feels good in the moment. You might outside your comfort zones (and remember that you’ve still got it). Flow confidently through sun salutations and warrior sequences, then get playful. After warming up your body, flow through a some more interesting vinyasa sequences. We’ll explore handstand hops, and grow the heat as moving through longer holds, more interesting sequences and working on some new variations. All the old favorites, just as you remember them, with plenty of time to open up your hamstrings, chest, shoulders and hips.
Our student body will be a diverse, virtual, global community of yogis with a wide range of experience. Participants will range from newer yoga practitioners to experienced teachers. Students with stiffness, challenges with yoga or meditation, injuries, and health issues are all welcome. If you are interested in a deeper understanding of yourself and your body, and if you want to develop tools that nourish your body, mind, and personal gifts, this training is for you and we encourage you to attend.
This training follows the Mazé Method of yoga education, a step-by-step approach to becoming a skillful, confident teacher. The curriculum combines detailed alignment knowledge and intelligent sequencing with vinyasa theory to provide you with sound skills for teaching safe and effective yoga classes. Your teachers have spent over 50 years collectively investigating nearly every style of yoga, its practices, and associated philosophies. Their knowledge, combined with their approach to experiential education, creates a learning environment that is rich and multi-faceted.
Students will learn to apply healthy critical thinking through an inquisitive approach to yoga studies. They’ll practice innovative teaching drills, gain clarity about how scientific principles substantiate training techniques, explore the deeper dimensions of yoga practice, and leave with a cutting-edge understanding of human movement and physiology. In all, students can expect to complete this training with new perspectives on yoga study, a greater understanding of biomechanical alignment principles, and expanded general knowledge.
We will study and deconstruct asana (yoga poses), pranayama(breathwork), meditation, yoga theory, yoga practice, yoga history and philosophy, basic Sanskrit, and ethics. Each day will be a treasure trove of learning about anatomy, kinesiology, applied biomechanics, and how to use this knowledge to optimize your yoga and movement practice and teaching.
In addition to the pre-recorded lessons and classes, Nichol and Noah will offer regular live sessions to facilitate community and collaboration, conduct teaching practicum, answer emerging collective questions, and further clarify lessons and topics as needed. Upon completion and graduation, students may choose to register with Yoga Alliance at the 200-hour RYT level.
