25 Years of Experience

Sam’s dad taught her to meditate when she was 4 years old. However, her teacher training may have started even earlier when she sat with her dad Kelvin while he taught meditation classes in their living room. Since then she’s turned to meditation for stress management, mind-body balance, and self-discovery – anywhere from the comfort of her living room in Boston to the busy public transportation of San Francisco to the break rooms of her jobs now in Los Angeles.

Dancer Turned Meditation Teacher

Sam’s initial immersion into kinesiology and dance at San Francisco State University clarified her passion for helping others understand and heal their bodies. She graduated with a Bachelor of Arts in Dance in 2016 from SFSU.

Her dance background later led to Sam's signing with the sports and fitness division of Wilhelmina Models in 2019.

Both Kelvin and Sam Chin teach “Turning Within” Meditation under the nonprofit that Kelvin founded.
