Rainbow Mars

Rainbow Mars is no less in demand in Hollywood than her colleague Mandy Ingber. Her list of regular clients includes almost all Hollywood celebrities and tycoons. Mars studied with famous yoga gurus Chuck Miller and Mati Ezrati.

So, she starred in such films as “The People vs. Larry Flynt” (1996), “If You Only Knew!” (2000), “100 girls and one in the elevator” (2000). But Mars decided not to continue her artistic career and focus on yoga.

Rainbow Mars frequently graces the covers of magazines such as Natural Solutions, Yoga Journal, Body + Soul, Elephant, Healing Lifestyles and Spas, New Living, and also writes books (Food for Beauty " and "Beauty from nature").
