Mary Beck

I was introduced to yoga in 2002 while spending time in a Florida resort for the winter. The next year, I was asked to teach for the resort, so I delved deeper into the practice of yoga studying on my own. Later, due to a personal tragedy and needing a way to move forward, I spent a weekend at Kripalu Center for Yoga and Health, Stockbridge, MA. It was a transformational experience! From that point on I decided to use yoga to help others, training with local teachers as well as making regular visits to Kripalu for specialized training in Yoga Nidra, meditation and qigong. I have been teaching now for 20 years and sincerely believe there is a holistic practice for everyone. I like to provide a safe and nurturing environment for my students to find their practice and inner peace.
