Faith Hunter, E-RYT 500

faith hunter

Faith is a Yoga teacher and lifestylist, sprinkled with a dash of Louisiana charm. Faith began her life-long love affair with Yoga in the early 90s as a way to cope as her beloved brother Michael was dying from a complication related to AIDS. Through meditation and mindfulness, Faith was able to release her fears and experience an awakening from within. From that day forward, she committed herself to sharing these practices with the world. Always eager to learn, explore, and share, Faith is an inspiring and generous mentor to Yoga practitioners of all skill levels.

She is the creator of Spiritually Fly™, a philosophy that celebrates every moment of life, and uses Yoga’s tools of sound both chanting and music, breath, and movement in a fresh and modern way to encourage students to embrace their unique flow in life (on and off the mat). Her passionate and free-spirited teaching style is influenced by her study in Vinyasa, Ashtanga, and Kundalini. A next-generation Yoga teacher, Faith blends classic yogic principles and real-world personal experiences into an integrated flow that is totally grounded and spiritually fly. Faith owns Embrace Yoga DC, a training and Yoga studio located in Adams Morgan—a multicultural nest in Washington DC. Both 200- and 500-hour level Yoga certifications are offered.

A favorite choice for mass Yoga gatherings, Faith has taught at Yoga at the great lawn, the Cherry Blossom Festival in Washington DC, The White House Easter Egg Roll, and is an esteemed faculty for Yoga Nation on Tour as well as Kripalu. She tours internationally teaching Yoga workshops, teacher trainings, and public appearances.

Faith is also a media darling having graced the covers of Yoga Journal, Om Yoga & Lifestyle, Origin Magazine, and Sweat Equity. She has also appeared in Essence, Black Enterprise, Washington Post, several DC publications, and numerous blogs. Faith was also a National Spokesperson for Six:02, a sister store of Foot Locker, Inc., which is the premier destination for fitness, performance, and style.
