MaryBeth Frosco

MaryBeth discovered yoga on her road to recovery from cancer, during which time she came to understand that she played a critical role in her own healing. She studied ashtanga and power yoga and eventually found Forrest Yoga®. She believes that through the practice of yoga, we can awaken the power within ourselves to heal the body, mind and spirit. This belief meshed with the philosophy of Forrest Yoga® and MaryBeth found her life's passion. She is a certified Forrest Yoga® teacher, has completed Forrest Yoga® Foundation Teacher Training and Forrest Yoga® Continuing Education Training with Ana Forrest and Jonathan Bowra, and has assisted Ana in national workshops.

MaryBeth's personal practice, approach to teaching and fascination with anatomy and the uniqueness of the human body is strongly influenced by Jill Miller. She's also found a passion for Yin Yoga and has trained with Josh Summers. MaryBeth has received Reiki L1 certification and offers Reiki as a complement to the healing practice of yoga. She continues to train with a diversity of incredible teachers and incorporates their gifts into her ever-evolving practice and teaching style. Her teaching combines asana with breath awareness to help individuals, especially those who have dealt with the trauma of cancer and cancer therapy, bring life and sensation into all areas of the body. She teaches with compassion to let individuals explore and unleash the power within themselves to heal. MaryBeth has a PhD in Microbiology and also works at Bristol-Myers Squibb, where her efforts are directed toward the development of new agents to treat cancer.
