Mary Kaye Chryssicas

After living the corporate fast track in Boston as an advertising director for magazines, Mary Kaye redirected her energy into a more family friendly career writing books and teaching children and teens yoga. Drawn to its peaceful, heart opening benefits, yoga was the only outlet that helped her slow down and focus on what's important in life. Author of I Love Yoga, Breathe, Yoga for Teens, and Being Authentic in a Selfie World, her books won the Young Adult Library Association Award for Reluctant Readers and the Parent's Choice Award and were translated into 9 different languages. Mary Kaye is also a motivational speaker, talk show guest, mother of three, and host of Mary Kaye's Positivity Podcast (ranked top 2.5% of all podcasts in the USA). She graduated from Vanderbilt University and studied ashtanga, kundalini, hatha, Iyengar and anusara yoga, completing several levels of teacher training through the Radiant Child Yoga Program. Mary Kaye specializes in helping young people retrain the brain to focus on the positive, transforming lives.
