Meet Christina
My mission is to awaken the wisdom, healing, and insight that lives within you through mindfulness, medicine, and movement.
Christina Hong, M.A., E-RYT 200, is a Yoga Teacher and Ceremonialist based in the suburbs of Washington, DC. She focuses on offering a practice that is embodiment-focused, accessible and equitable; Christina works towards creating a world in which everyone feels safe, seen, and supported throughout their journey. Influenced by her teachers, Christina focuses on how you approach your practice rather than how much you do.
After 14 years of studying Classical Chinese dance and ballet, Christina unrolled the mat for the first time and fell in love with yoga. She has found clarity and solace in her life with the fusion of plant medicines, mindfulness, and movement practices. Christina is a lifelong student and is committed to her ongoing growth, questioning, and relearning on the healing path. In every class she teaches, Christina aims to inspire community members to feel empowered in their bodies, honor their boundaries, and enjoy the beauty of the peaks and valleys along the way.
When she's not on her yoga mat, she enjoys hiking, foraging for mushrooms, tending to her many plant babies, and playing with Peanut, her 4 year old pitbull.
"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."
