Ali MacGraw

Ali MacGraw received high praise for her breakout film Goodbye, Columbus in 1969. She was very successful and was honored with impressions of her footprints and autograph at Grauman’s Chinese Theater after starring in just three movies. Ali was highly sought after and had financial security, but she needed a different career after being an actress for decades. The stress was just too much….

Ali MacGraw became interested in yoga when she turned 50, and it changed everything for her. She didn’t want to be a star anymore and deal with the stress of being in the spotlight all the time. She decided it was time for a change and ultimately began teaching yoga classes. She’s much happier without the spotlight and enjoys teaching.
