NEVER do this ONE movement!
Now that you’re here, I’ll apologise. This isn’t really about that ONE movement which you should NEVER do. Quite the opposite, in fact, and the title is a cheap trick. It was done to prove a point, though, and now you’re here, please hang around a little longer.
Why are we drawn in by such clickbait titles? I see articles, links and posts saying things to this effect on social media all the time, and receive email advertisements of its ilk. I find myself sucked in to these kinds of articles and posts a fair bit, even though I should know better. I’d like to say that for me, it is the fascination of, “What is being demonised now?”.

One reason I’m so keen to take Noah’s classes is that his name jumps off the schedule at me as someone I’ve heard of, and therefore am especially curious about. I remember reading a Yoga Journal article of his, describing the path towards Hanumanasana. Plus, of course, he’s well-known as a former prominent Anusara teacher. Nowadays, he leads teacher trainings, classes, and workshops under the YogaMazé brand.
I’m interested in exploring the intersection between yoga and celebrity culture, and I’ve chosen to do it with a man who could legitimately be termed a yoga celebrity, and who lives and teaches in Los Angeles, the epicentre of celebrity culture. Hashtag irony.
Noah Mazé’s own teaching style is fairly old-school, and he eschews the trappings of flashiness that characterize some modern c
