Christine Davison

Hello, my name is Christine, and I am the Yoga Director at element and a passionate yoga instructor. I am a 500 RYT teacher with additional Restorative, Yin, and Meditation certifications.My yoga journey spans over 20 years, and I began teaching in 2022. Throughout my training, I have had the privilege of learning from esteemed teachers such as Cyndi Weis, Carly Weis, Judith Lasater (Relax and Renew – Level 1), Lizzie Lasater (Deep Rest), Kate Lombardo, Luca Richards, Ann Marie Kramer, Tiffany Cruikshank, and Mary Richards, among others. My favorite teaching styles include Hatha, Yin, Restorative, Meditation, and Yoga Nidra.My intention is for my students to leave class feeling relaxed, calm, centered, and refreshed, with a clear mind and a strong body. I emphasize breath awareness, strength, and flexibility as we move through each pose, always honoring where our bodies are in the present moment. Through clear guidance and mindful instruction, I invite students to turn inward, fostering self-inquiry and personal growth. Yoga is my guiding light—it lifts me up when I am down, energizes me when I feel depleted, and calms me when I am overwhelmed. It has taught me invaluable lessons both on and off the mat. Outside of yoga, I enjoy golf, gardening, reading, indoor cycling, walking, andspending quality time with my husband, family, and friends.Favorite yoga song: “Keep Breathing” by Ingrid MichaelsonFavorite quote: by Judith Hanson Lasater: "We work very hard in our lives, and while we may sleep, we rarely take time to relax. Restorative yoga poses help us learn to rest deeply and completely."I look forward to sharing my love of yoga with you!
