MEET CHAITALI MARDE

Chaitali Marde, MS

Certified Yoga Teacher, Mindfulness Instructor , Nutrition Counselor and Certified Personal Trainer

Hi, my name is Chaitali Marde, I have completed my master’s in Nutrition Education and Yoga teacher training. I started out as a nutrition educator for the school district. Yoga was a forgotten tool which came up again in my life after a health scare of a personal nature. For the past 8 years I have been teaching adults and children’s yoga and doing nutrition consultations. Understanding the need for strength training I completed my National Association of Sports Medicine certification. In the year 2022 and 2023 I got an opportunity to complete a Mindfulness Teacher Training program from the Mindfulness Training Institute in San Francisco. Meditation has helped me stay grounded and present ; now after completing the training I have the tools to teach this profound practice.

I believe everybody’s body is different and no two individuals can do an exercise, eat food or practice mindfulness in the same way. You do not have to give up a certain food or curb your craving for sweets. And you definitely do not have to spend hours in a gym to take care of your health. Similarly, meditation practice does not always include sitting on the floor. I believe your responsibilities and needs make your health needs unique for you. And there is a way to enjoy this supremely agreeable condition called life while taking care of that!

 

MY ACCREDITATIONS:

  • <autoplay speed=15></autoplay>My daughter (age 18) and I have been a part of Chaitali’s yoga classes since May 2021. It has helped my overall health but most importantly it has been a great stress reliever after a long day of work. My daughter has been attending from another state as she is in college. She enjoys the workout and the flexibility that Chaitali offers; she is really willing to work with everyone. Even though it’s an online class Chaitali provides individual attention to everyone attending. She is a very fun and energetic instructor and makes the classes enjoyable.

  • I have been attending Chaitali’s yoga class for over a year now. I am extremely satisfied with her way of teaching . I am noticing a lot of improvement in my overall flexibility . I used to get lower back pain earlier. But after starting her class, it’s almost fully gone. My doctor complimented me on my improved blood pressure too! Joining her class was one of the best decisions I have taken!

    Bindu Prakash, Mom & Homemaker

  • I've been guided by several teachers over the decade, but Chaitali's classes have been the best so far! Chaitali takes the time to start slow and get me warmed up before ramping up to a challenge tailored to my capabilities. This has been particularly helpful considering I have a sensitive lower back. She offers nuanced corrections every step of the way. I appreciate how well-rounded her classes are -- they focus on strength, alignment, posture, flexibility, breathing, and balance. I highly recommend her classes to anyone at any stage in their yoga journey.

  • After trying various other classes, I have been learning from Chaitali for over 5 years. She comes to each class with a plan that addresses a new area for improvement. Her strive to make us better versions of ourselves is so strong that there have never been two classes with the same routine! Over the years, she has helped me immensely to overcome health issues through counseling on diet, lifestyle and workout-all out of her concern for my well being. I cannot imagine a better coach for a healthy and holistic lifestyle.

  • Chaitali is a gentle professional. I feel a strong sense of calm when practicing yoga with her. Her yoga practice is a great mix of strength, flow, deep breathing and relaxation.The calming breath work and soothing postures uplift you when you feel stress or anxiety. I feel energized, centered and in-tune with my mind and body. I have learnt something new in every class. Her attention to breath, movement, the body and spirit is what makes me motivated to go on. You have to experience it yourself. I highly recommend her classes!

    Jennifer Dhuri, RD Dietitian

  • As an overweight and overwhelmed first-time mom, Chaitali's ability to navigate me through the world of food and nutrition was very timely and calming. She helped me create sustainable food habits which allowed me to be human! Her tweaks to my eating patterns helped me slowly and steadily gain control of my own health and body. She is a very good listener and an extremely meticulous documenter. I still refer to her handwritten notes when I need a mental refresher! I highly recommend her to anyone who has 'tried it all' and yet is lost and confused.

    Lakshmi Subramanian, Principal Architect and Mom

  • Chaitali has been my primary source of guidance over the last 8 years for all things health and wellness. I am a year-round competitive swimmer and Chaitali's yoga classes have not only helped me increase my mobility which directly impacts my performance in the pool, but have also given me a valuable tool to improve my mental health. Over the pandemic she has provided several nutrition plans that aim to help me meet my caloric and protein intake goals and I regularly rely on her as my source of information for my nutritional planning. Chaitali has decades of experience and training and is an extremely versatile and knowledgeable addition to anyone's fitness and health journey.
