MEET YOUR FACILITATOR
Christina Sommer Yoga Teacher Training Lead Teacher, Founder of 8th State Hot Yoga + Fitness.
“I have been practicing hot yoga since 2018. What started as a way to destress after challenging workdays at my corporate job in Human Resources Management turned into a passion for sharing the positive mind, body and soul benefits of movement with others. I earned my 200 hour Yoga Teacher Certification in Peru in 2020 and began teaching online to friends and family in April. On January 1, 2021 we opened 8th State Hot Yoga in Oconomowoc and I taught my first in person yoga class that day.
Since then, my passion for learning has led me to earn my 300 hour Yoga Teacher certificate and additional certifications in Yoga Sculpt, Children’s Yoga, Yin Yoga, Pranayama and Sound Healing. My favorite styles of yoga to teach are Yoga Sculpt, Vinyasa Flow and 26+2 Bikram. I can’t wait to help you deepen your practice and share the incredible experience of teaching yoga with you!”
