Welcome to Stretchlab Collegeville

I have experience as a yoga teacher and massage therapist. I have studied Yoga and energy work for over 15 years and enjoy sharing different techniques with others. As a yoga teacher, I focus on making sure the students have a strong foundation in each posture. I believe that having a strong and stable foundation is the key to making any movement easeful. I bring this philosophy to each stretch session, so whether you are an athlete or are just looking for a little more mobility in life, I will make sure that your body is in the best position to make an easeful stretch. I love to spend my free time out in nature going hiking, kayaking and gardening. I also enjoy sitting back with a cup of homemade herbal tea from my garden and knitting or crocheting. I enjoy working at StretchLab because I get to see the members gain not only flexibility and mobility, but also increase their self-esteem and sense of inner strength. Working one on one with people allows us to create a family like setting and really connect with the members as they go on this journey of self-improvement.

My favorite thing about working at StretchLab is being able to help people connect to and feel better in their bodies. I take genuine interest in learning about your needs and assisting your mobility journey by working to increase your range of motion. Moving the body in a variety of ways that support us in daily life helps us to feel energized and supple, making movement more fluid. I am a 500hr Yoga Instructor, and currently studying Yoga Therapy. I am a lifelong learner and enjoy doing puzzles, painting, hiking, dancing, attending live music and of course hanging with my family and friends!

I have a BA in Dance and Psychology from Muhlenberg College and have worked as a professional dance artist in the greater Philadelphia area for the past twenty years. I’ve spent the early part of my performance career in Musical Theatre then expanded to Modern and Contemporary dance, performing with various companies and independent artists throughout the tri-state area and as far West as Las Vegas. I’ve staged thirty musicals for Central Bucks East High School, taught at two dance studios, adjudicated dance competitions up and down the East Coast and continue to teach master classes throughout Philadelphia and the Lehigh Valley. My husband and I are parents to two karate-kicking and baseball-playing boys. I enjoy reading, weight lifting, going to concerts and traveling with my family, with a goal of visiting all fifty states. I’m excited to join the Stretch Lab team and to help people live a healthy lifestyle and to feel better and stronger both mentally and physically.
