She loves helping practitioners of various physical disciplines reach their strength and stretch goals. Maya has practiced Iyengar Yoga since 2006 and has traveled to the Ramamani Iyengar Memorial Institute in Pune, India in 2013 to train for an extended period with the Iyengar family. She is a graduate of the Iyengar Yoga Institute of New York teacher training program of 2015 and is a certified teacher (CIYT-1) with over 7+ years of teaching experience.

Ilze has over 20+ years as a personal trainer working with a wide variety of people, including athletes and adults and enjoys helping people achieve their goals. She has been very active throughout her life, especially her love for the outdoors. Her athleticism includes weight training, golfing, running, biking, skiing, surfing and hiking to just name a few. Being an active person, she understands and relates to overcoming physical challenges and imbalances. She finds that stretching has so many benefits in just getting the body moving properly. Ilze decided to join STRETCHLAB because she sees the value it can bring in helping anyone on a daily basis in creating a healthy, balanced lifestyle.

My Health and Fitness career has taken a lot of different turns which has allowed me to develop a strong understanding for mobility and flexibility. I received my Peresonal Training certification from NASM and completed my Corrective Exercise Specialisation through NASM as well. I developed this experience while working for a chiropractor as a functional movement specialist. I watched how people walked, sat, stood up, and even slept to determine how healthily they were performing these movements. If a movement is done by a part of the body not designed for that movement this can result in what's called a movement compensation. Over time, these movement compensations can create imbalances in the body that will turn a regular bump or sprain into something more severe. By understanding how the body moves and what needs to be done to correct imbalances, I've been able to help thousands of people attain a more ergonomic lifestyle. The most beneficial part about working at StretchLab comes from our focus on educating the flexologist, which in turn, educates you, the member. Not everybody wants to play in the NBA or run a marathon, but tightness and repetetive injuries shouldn't stop you from being able to enjoy the things that you love!

Hi my name is Isabella! I've been dancing for 15 years. I've decided to keep pursuing my passion through Stretchlab! My favorite thing to do is travel and surf around the world.
