Diane KALI

Diane KALI is a student of YOGA and the healing arts. For the past 30 years, she has dedicated her life to the mastery of the practice on every level.
Her Yoga journey began in NEW YORK CITY in the 90’s.
The very first yoga class was a lifting of a veil, a loosening of a deep knot and a glimpse at her true nature. The memory of her mother practicing yoga and a feeling of true happiness came to rest in her body mind and soul.
She knew instantly that YOGA was her path. Years passed with yoga being part of her daily ritual. The love for the yogic life lead her to take teacher trainings with many Masters of Yoga. Their guidance lead her to make pilgrimages to Mysore India to study at KPJAYI (Krishna Pattabi Jois Yoga Institute). Saraswati Jois, her teacher was the first woman to teach yoga in India.
She made her home in Upstate New York and was introduced to Khadija Radin of the Mevlevi order of America and Koshin David Radin osho of the Ithaca Zen Center. They were her Primary teachers of Sufism and Zen Buddhism for 20 years.
The Healing Arts have also been part of her studies. She has studied with healers and for the past 10 years she has sat in ceremony with the healing medicine of Peru and South America.
With a family and many life lessons weaved into her years of practice, she has always returned to YOGA. She believes YOGA has the power to transform and heal lives.
She presently spends her time teaching yoga and working as a massage therapist at her studio, Red Lotus in Odessa NY.

It is her intension to share all she has learned as her service to humanity.
