Christina Marcia
YIY YTT Graduate
I am Christina Marcia! Yoga and meditation practitioner and teacher. A vinyasa preferred style practitioner with guided and silent meditation. I aim to provide and hold space for mindful breathing, meditation, and movement through asana based flow. Holding space for those seeking internal peace and a tranquil calm spirit. I have been certified and trained with Your Inner Yogi in Ashtangasana YTT 200 hour and registered with the Yoga Alliance. I am a new teacher with over 7 years of practice in yoga and guided meditation. Inspired and taught by Candace Saulsberry owner and Yoga teacher of The Yoga Kickback. Also inspired by Your Inner Yogi owner and teacher Libby Campo along with Caroline Collins, Bridget Sisney, Jackie O. and Kandace Stewart. I inspire to offer a space for peace, relaxation, self-care, positivity, love, and care for each student. Pushing the community to join together in an effort to create more safe spaces for individuals to freely be themselves with respect and love for who others are. A non judgement zone but honorable environment. Having experienced waves of life’s experiences as a black woman, a mother, a daughter, a sister, etc., I found yoga practice in the confinement of my home with just me and a Kemetic Yoga video on YouTube. My practice evolved of years into my first public class with The Yoga Kickback. This space offered so much of what was needed for me. In this space I experienced having a voice, a mat, a listening ear, support, relatability and love from other black women. For many years it was my safe haven for a 60 min class of Vinyasa flow, Ashtanga and Guided Meditation. This space, teacher, and practice inspired me on my journey to become a Yoga teacher and opened my heart to assist other women to have that peace within! I aim to offer a safe space for those in need to take up space and to just breathe!
