Mary Beth Ray

Mary Beth Ray has been exploring yoga as a physical practice and philosophy since the early 1990s. She studies primarily with teachers within the lineages originating with Krishnamacharya. Her practice has drawn her deeply into the moving meditation and self-discovery of the Ashtanga Vinyasa Mysore system and more recently into the subtle, breath-centered inquiry of Viniyoga.

She has been teaching since 2009 and is registered through Yoga Alliance E-RYT 500 and as a YACEP. MB has been part of the teacher training faculty at both Barefoot Movement and Square One Yoga in the SF Bay Area. She is certified in Accessible Yoga by Jivana Heyman, has studied adaptive yoga with Matthew Sanford of Mind Body Solutions, Yin Yoga with Devi Daly, Subtle Yoga with Kristine Weber, and Principles of Yoga Anatomy with Leslie Kaminoff to name a few of the teachers who have shared their insights into the teachings with her over the years. In spring 2025, she completes her Yoga Therapist training in the Viniyoga tradition through the Yoga Well Institute under the guidance of Chase Bossart, Amanda Green, and Jeannie Turner. Her personal practice is inspired and informed by all these teachers and especially Timothy Lynch.

Practicing with MB you will hone a healthy balance between effort and ease and discover a more graceful engagement with your everyday life. Learn more at https://3greencircles.com/
