Remember the wisdom that lives within you through mindfulness, medicine, and movement.
MEET CHRISTINA
Christina Hong, M.A., E-RYT 200 is a Yoga Teacher, Retreat Director, and Ceremonialist based outside Washington, DC. Her work centers around accessible, embodiment-based practices that honor each person’s lived experiences. Christina is devoted to creating spaces where people feel safe, seen, and supported - both on and off the mat.
With a background in Classical Chinese dance and ballet, Christina first came to yoga as a way to reconnect with her body. What began as a physical practice soon deepened into a path of healing, integrating movement, mindfulness, and plant medicine. Her teaching encourages presence, curiosity, and self-trust. She focuses on how we show up, not how much we do. Christina is a lifelong student committed to growth, unlearning, and walking the healing path with humility. In every class and gathering, she invites others to honor their boundaries, move at their own pace, and embrace the full spectrum of being human. When she isn’t teaching or holding space, you’ll find her hiking, foraging for mushrooms, tending to her many plant babies, or playing with Peanut, her beloved, goofy pit bull.
"Christina brings an energy to her teaching that fills the room. She takes the time to get to know her students which really makes me feel connected during class."
