Samantha Gitlin

Samantha Gitlin is certified as an E-RYT200, also trained in Yoga Sculpt, and Yin Yoga. Sam teaches vinyasa based yoga, linking breath to movement. She loves to sequence fun, alignment based classes, focusing on a theme or peak pose. She finds her passion in exploring the practice of yoga and creating community within it. Most importantly, just like life, Sam believes that this lifelong practice is never about perfection, but about exploring the journey and having fun along the way. 

Sam's passion for fitness has continued to grow and extended beyond the mat. In 2022, Sam received her NASM certified personal trainers certificate to spread her enjoyment of fitness to coaching all group exercise classes. She loves some fast sprints and to lift heavy things! Most important, she loves making fitness fun and inclusive for everyone. 

You can currently find Sam at Chicago Athletic Clubs, INA, Yodega Yoga Studio and Midtown Chicago- and her most imporant new venture as founder of We The People Fitness Studio. 

We The People is a shared studio space for fitness instructors to reserve to hold their own classes, workshops and events. Check out SMGYOGAs events at our new beautiful space and support your fitness instructors!
