Welcome to StretchLab Morningside

I am a Mississippi native, born and raised in the small, beautiful city of Sharon. I graduated from the University of Southern Mississippi where I received a Bachelor’s and Master’s degree in Kinesiology with an emphasis in Exercise Science. I was a student athlete at the division 1 level for 5 years playing Center (Basketball). I have experience in the areas of physical and occupational therapy, cardiac rehab, group fitness, wellness coaching, and strength and conditioning coaching. I strive daily to diligently apply my knowledge of how the human body responds to exercise, therapy, and training. I will always work with individuals to determine the best training and rehabilitation plans based on their abilities and goals. I am passionate about improving fitness, increasing effective therapy and training to better lifelong health and wellness. I look forward to working with you!

Hello, My name is Ryan! I was born and raised in ATL. I've worked as a PT Tech for nearly two years and I am pursuing my degree in Health Science at Georgia State University.

Hello, I am from Stone Mountain, Ga. I earned a degree in Kinesiology & Exercise Science from Georgia State and am on track to become a Physical Therapist. I was an athlete in high school and played several sports, including team basketball. My passion for recovery grew from experiencing multiple injuries and going through my own rehabilitation. I had early exposure to observing and shadowing Occupational and Physical Therapists in my High School's sports medicine program. After college, I worked as a Physical Therapy Technician for 3 years, gaining clinical practice and hands-on experience. I understand how to keep my body in a healthy state and the rehabilitation process. I’m eager to share that knowledge with you! At StretchLab, I work with clients from every background and help them feel and perform their best and teach them how to care for their body. Whether you want to be able to continue to pick up basketball after being at a desk all day, are a retiree wanting to improve and keep your mobility, or a weekend warrior working on personal bests, I can help you improve how your body feels and performs.

I grew up in Decatur and Druid Hills and love the people within the community. I graduated from Clayton State University with a degree in Health Science and am pursuing a career in physical therapy. As a track and field athlete for 12 years, I learned first hand about the impact of recovery on performance, injury prevention, and rehabilitation. I have also been a Physical Therapy Aide and Wellness Coach. At StretchLab, I am excited to work hands-on with clients to teach them about their body and help them with preventative care. We often find ourselves in pain or injured because we aren’t stretching and doing the proper recovery for our active and static periods. We will create a clear plan on how to get your moving better and take care of yourself day to day. As the Team Lead, I am responsible for programming quality and ongoing education for the team.

Hi! I’m Karima. I was born and raised in Jonesboro, GA and earned my BS in Kinesiology with a concentration in Exercise Science from North Carolina A & T University with Magna Cum Laude distinction. I ran track in HS and at the collegiate level and learned a lot about how to care for my body and what happens when you don’t have recovery. I was also diagnosed with scoliosis at a young age and rehabilitation helped me live an active, normal life. My experience in rehabilitation is where my passion for exercise & helping people bloomed. I aspire to be a physical therapist and have completed over 300 intern hours in outpatient PT clinics, working with diverse populations, injuries & treatment modalities. It is simple to avoid injury and maintain your mobility. StretchLab is the perfect fit for me to keep learning and continue helping people move better and feel better every day. I can blend my love for movement with my purpose of helping people feel stronger and more in control of their bodies. I’m naturally patient, and I take pride in making sure my clients feel respected and comfortable every step of the way. I love sharing how the body works and seeing someone light up when they realize what their body can do. I want all my clients to leave feeling better than when they arrived.

Hi, I’m India! I am a native of ATL and proud grad of Grady HS. I earned my BS in Kinesiology from NC Central University. I have gained experience in Athletic Training, Chiropractic care, Physical Therapy Aide, and in Orthopedic clinics. As an Athletic Training Intern at the University where I traveled with sports teams to instruct on proper techniques for safe play and assisted with injuries. As a PT Aide at Duke Health Center and a Medical Asst at OrthoAtlanta, I assisted in injury treatment and PT exercises to help rehabilitate patients with disorders or injuries. This is where I developed my passion for patient advocacy, care and education. I saw a lot of patients receive treatments that masked symptoms versus address root cause and solve underlying problems. I began Life University’s Chiropractic program and am exploring my career path in preventive care. I am excited about our stretch sessions at StretchLab to help teach you about your body and how to care for it to feel your best every day! I have a deep appreciation for the fine arts and am a proud member of Alpha Kappa Alpha!

Tyler is from Marietta, Georgia. He earned his degree in Science in Exercise Science with a minor in Nutritional Science from Kennesaw State University and plans to pursue a career in physical therapy. He has two years of experience working in a neurobehavioral rehabilitation facility supporting individuals recovering from acquired brain injuries, along with two years as a physical therapy technician in a clinical setting. In that role, he worked with adolescents, older adults, and student athletes, helping guide them through recovery and movement progression. Tyler began his own fitness journey through calisthenics, where he developed a strong appreciation for body awareness, mobility, and strength working together. As a former high school fencer, he learned that training, nutrition, and recovery must stay balanced to support long-term performance and longevity. At StretchLab, Tyler is passionate about helping clients prioritize recovery so they can move confidently and live actively. He believes movement is medicine and brings patience, focus, and attentiveness to every session, tailoring each stretch to support his clients’ individual goals.

Coming from an athletic background in college, I have seen serious injuries that could have been prevented with proper recovery. I am driven to help people from all walks of life learn more about their body to prevent injuries and continue to pursue an increase in overall quality of life through healthy movement. StretchLab is a great place in the wellness industry for me to make that happen. I worked as an athletic training student aide for four years for a D1 collegiate football team while also pursuing and obtaining a bachelor's degree in exercise science from Georgia State University. I am also a Physical Therapy Tech and a certified exercise physiologist with expertise with conditions associated with lack of movement. I am a bubbly, energetic person who loves to communicate with clients whether that be educational or just fun topics! Our session will center around making progress along your program to your goal.
