In todays podcast, I sat down with Mary Kay Diehl of Simplicity Yoga Studio in Kings Park, NY. Mary Kay shared her story with us and her reasons why she cares to share her knowledge and love of yoga, meditation & breath work. Taking time to take care of yourself, should be a priority in our everyday.
Mary Kay Diehl, E-RYT500, licensed NYS Physical Therapist Assistant, has been practicing yoga since the late 90s and began her teaching career 15 years ago training with Alan Finger, the founder of ISHTA yoga (Integrative Science of Hatha Tantra and Ayurveda) and the NYC Yoga Works studios.
She considers yoga an inward conversation of self exploration, the physical practice of asana poetry in motion; each opportunity you unroll your mat is a new chance to discover more about yourself, your unbound potential, an opportunity to return home.
Through her teaching career, she has taken part in multiple anatomy trainings, functional movement certifications specifically targeting skilled movement through yoga asana. After years of dedicated study she officially became a licensed NYS Physical Therapist Assistant working in an outpatient orthopedic setting. In the summer of 2020, Mary Kay began to delve into understanding the energy body with the certification course Energy Medicine with Donna Eden. She is also Seraphim Blueprint Level 5 certified.
Mary Kay uses her extensive knowledge of the human body as her foundational element to build her classes. With a keen eye and succinct instruction she builds a safe, stable base for her students to grow.
I hope you enjoy our session!
