Welcome to Stretchlab East Greenwich

My professional passion is to help people move better and feel better. In addition to being a certified Flexologist with Stretchlab, I am a Licensed Clinical Massage Therapist, Certified Lymphedema Therapist, Health Coach, a US instructor for Amino Neurofrequency Therapy and a principal instructor at the Bancroft School of Massage Therapy. I love the outdoors and I am a avid hiker. When not working, I can be found outdoors with my family and two dogs. I have black belt in Kenpo Karate and was previously a personal trainer.

I have been involved in the Health & Fitness industry for over a decade. After graduating from the American Academy of Personal Training in 2012, I began my profession as a Certified Personal Trainer at a few local gyms in the Providence area. I helped others to reach their goals, such as weight loss, muscle gain, and improving athletic performance. After completing an internship at “The Genius of Flexibility” in Boston, MA, I found my niche and passion in the area of assisted stretching. I continued my education in this modality by completing all levels of training in The Ki-Hara Method. I have melded all these experiences together in hopes of helping members at StretchLab to move and feel better. Outside of the studio, I coach and enjoy playing soccer. My other favorite activities can be found outdoors from walking my black lab, Maggie, to snowboarding and kayaking.

I am an experienced certified occupational therapy assistant with a wide range of skills helping people to improve their quality of life based on their individualized plan of care. I have a passion in health and wellness and looking at each person as an individual with specific goals. When strength training became part of my daily routine, it wasn’t long after that I realized stretching was necessary in order to decrease pain, reduce risk of injury and improve performance to reach my goals. Utilizing stretching in my daily life enabled me to explore a career in Flexology at StretchLab and I look forward to providing a unique stretching experience to help people achieve their health and fitness goals.

My journey to the fitness profession began as a personal passion. I obtained my NCFS personal training certification after I was able to transform my own life through fitness. I take great pride in helping people live and obtain a healthier lifestyle. Through stretching, I enjoy assisting people improve their quality of life and overall wellness. When I'm not at StretchLab you can find me enjoying time on my Harley Davidson motorcycle or walking with my wife and dog on nature trails.

My name is Jeffery Hodson. I grew up playing football, baseball, basketball, and track. I am a yoga teacher, and stretching and fitness are a major part of my life. I spend most of my free time going on hikes all through New England, and I'm a sucker for a good book. My passion for stretching has brought me here because everything StretchLab does has been tested and proven to generate positive results. My goal as a flexologist is to help each client reach the goals they have in mind, and feel better each time you leave

With over 30 years in the fitness industry as a personal trainer, I understand the importance of stretching. It is something I have stressed with clients over the years. I always include a significant of amount stretching during my clients sessions. Working at StretchLab was a easy decision for me and an extension of what I have already been doing. When I am not working, I can be found outside on land or in the water. I love mountain hiking & biking and I am avid surfer. I have surfed all over the world.

I have always helped people experience wellness and relaxation through movement of the body. My background is in personal training and group fitness. I have taught all formats of fitness including gentle yoga. My path took a turn when I helped my mother through her illness. Eventually saying goodbye to her. This catapulted my focus on everything health and wellness. I started studying mind & body fitness and began seeing the importance of prevention. I became very proactive with my own fitness and inner wellbeing. Movement, meditation and breath work have been the most powerful healing tools for me and now I want to serve people in the same way I have been helped. I have realized that “If you don’t have freedom in your body you don’t have freedom in your life: freedom of time, abundance, deep personal connections and purpose.” So, let’s get moving. Let’s stretch!

Hi, I'm Suzie Doyle. My journey with body work started in 2009 when I attended my first Reiki class. I loved it so much I became certified as a Reiki Master/Teacher in Usui Reiki, Karuna Reiki (Sound Healing), and Holy Fire II Reiki. I continued my education in several different modalities, including Licensed Massage Therapist, Thai Massage, Scarwork, Acupressure, Cross Cultural Core Shamanic Practitioner (Healing the Inner Child & Fragmented Soul) and I will soon to be completing my 200hr YTT yoga teacher program. I am always looking for ways to improve and provide the best care for my clients, so it made sense to pursue becoming a Flexologist. I have a passion for helping others achieve their personal goals for their overall betterment. I have a natural ability to connect with people & make them feel comfortable, my positive energy is contagious! My clients leave feeling rejuvenated & grateful for the experience. In my spare time I enjoy singing karaoke with friends, reading, days at the beach, and spending time with my 5 children and 3 grandchildren. I enjoy life & live every day to the fullest.

My name is Rhiannon Smith. I've been doing yoga and resistance training since I was 14. I am now a yoga teacher, and health and fitness are major priorities in my life. I spend my free time meditating, doing yoga and hiking with my dogs. I believe very much in strengthening AND lengthening the body, and that's why I love working at StretchLab. I can help people to remain mobile. As a Flexologist I want to work towards each client's individual stretching goals, and as a perk I hope they feel a little lighter after a great stretch.

My journey with stretching and flexibility came at an early age in a gymnastics gym. I grew up in the gym and it is where I truly found my passion for movement and healing through movement. Now I coach gymnastics and help others find their joy for stretching. I currently hold my Associate degree in Exercise Science and am continuing on to earn my Bachelors of Exercise Science. From there, I plan on pursuing my goal of a doctorate of physical therapy. When I’m not working, I enjoy hiking, surfing, and trying out new restaurants and cafes! StretchLab gives me the opportunity to help people achieve their goals and share my love for movement.

Hi! I’m Ryane. My desire to create change in the world through physical and mental wellness was inspired by the many rigorous hours I spent training as a dancer since age two. Dance gave me the opportunity from a young age to see the benefits and importance of physical movement, as well as the positive effects it had on my mental and emotional health. I received my Bachelors in Dance at Dean College with a minor in Psychology. I pursued performing in Los Angeles/NYC/Boston, and took on the role of teaching/managing at various dance academy’s in Boston where I quickly developed a love for teaching. This led me towards the fitness industry and discovering my true purpose: to create change and awareness through teaching others the ability to master their mind, body, and soul. My professional training/education includes dance cardio, group fitness, and yoga. I have taught for 305 fitness, Orangetheory, and currently run group fitness classes through my own brand “SHIFT”. The ultimate catalyst in remaining persistent with my mission has been my sobriety and the recovery of a knee replacement I had in 2021. I am beyond grateful to be in a place today where taking care of my mind and body is “non-negotiable”, and to teach others how this lifestyle can improve their health and quality of life.

I am in the people business, always having a way to impact others. I’ve obtained my bachelors degree in exercise science in 2018 and from there I began working with a variety of clients as a personal trainer. I’ve also had experience working with many strength and conditioning athletes which is where I was first introduced to PNF stretching. I know use all of the tools I have built over my career and incorporate them into StretchLab to get you the best result I can.

Hello! My name is Katie Clifford. I grew up near Portland, Oregon. In my early years, I played Volleyball, Basketball, and track and field. At 19 years old, I joined the United States Coast Guard and got stationed in the California Bay Area, conducting law enforcement and search and rescue missions. One of my responsibilities was running the physical fitness test for my crew members. Multiple members came to me asking for guidance to get them in shape to pass these tests. Helping these members reach their health and fitness goals led to my true passion for the fitness world. I knew that after I separated from the service, I would go straight into the fitness industry. I am a fitness coach at a functional training studio. I am certified in personal training, nutrition, and yoga instructor, and currently going to school for sports and health sciences. Stretching is such a key component of your health and fitness goals and a way to relax the body and mind. I am excited to meet new clients and assist them in their quest for greater flexibility, mobility, and overall wellness.
