Maeli Goren-Wilson (she/her, RYT 500) first found yoga as a gangly Midwestern theater kid who longed to feel at home in her body. She offered at-home “classes” to her parents and grandparents (read: rolled around on the floor and laughed to the point of tears) before finally undergoing her 200-hour yoga teacher training at Yogaview in Chicago in 2022. She completed her 300 hour training through Seeking OM studio under the leadership of Willa DeVoti Worsfold. In her own asana exploration as well in her teaching, Maeli strives for harmony. Her focus is on body awareness, creative expression through movement, and play. She loves serving humans of all ages, abilities, and experience levels. Off the mat, Maeli is an artist and educator specializing in effective collaboration strategies. She will happily consult with you about making your organization flow more effectively and joyfully. Or perhaps even flow through some vinyasa! Reach out at maeligoren.com.
