Welcome to Stretchlab Novato

My interest in health and wellness began in high school, when I became an avid gym-goer and started trying new foods and fitness classes. While studying Human Developmental Sciences at UC San Diego, I found a passion in helping people become happier and healthier! That lead to pursuing my NASM certification Personal Training and then to StretchLab. Stretching is for everybody and is SO good for you. As a Flexologist, I am able to further my knowledge and help those around me feel better in their day-to-day lives. I learn something from every person on my bench! When I’m not stretching, you can find me reading, hiking, rock climbing, baking, being with friends & family, or training in the gym. Looking forward to helping you feel better and live LONG!

I discovered martial arts and a love for health and wellness as a young adult. I have over 10 years of experience, a brown belt in Brazilian Jiu jitsu and expertise in kickboxing. I am also an ISSA certified personal trainer. My driving goal is to help others find their best in body, mind and spirit. I love seeing someone move and feel better by taking action to improve their life, and witnessing how StretchLab changes the way people function and experience their world is awesome. One of my favorite stretches is the lumbar rotation, as it opens up the spine, side body and chest. Aside from martial arts, I also enjoy hiking, lifting weights, cooking, and exploring new and little known restaurants and magical spots around our world.

I grew up playing sports – I was captain of my tennis, water polo and swim teams in high school – and have always had a love for health and fitness. My degree in Kinesiology, and my experience from a two year sports medicine internship prepared me well for my Flexologist role! Our members get so much from improved flexibility and I love helping them reach their goals. Since we work one on one, we get the chance to really get to know who's on our bench and that’s both helpful and rewarding. My favorite stretch would have to be any in the shoulder sequence that expand range in the upper body. A few things about me…I’m a Bay Area native and I love summer, paddle boarding and the LA Clippers!

I have a BS in Kinesiology and am pursuing a career in Occupational Therapy. Through fitness, I developed a deep passion for biomechanics in range of mobility, enhancing physical capabilities, and pushing past limitations. I am certified in Group Fitness, Spin, TRX and also love functional strength training and mobility work! I am excited about StretchLab and the tools we have to guide members on their wellness and longevity journeys. During free time, I am learning amateurishly how to play guitar and attempting to trek more miles in my hiking boots and on my bike. If those attempts fail, you can always find me with my fluff ball German Shepherd, Theo! Excited to meet you!

I am a Certified Personal Trainer and am pursuing my Master’s Degree in Kinesiology at SF State. My interest in fitness began with being involved in sports at a young age. When I started working out in the gym, my physical and mental health completely changed in a positive way. My hope is to help people reach their own fitness goals by offering guidance and encouragement throughout their journey. Our team at StretchLab is incredibly knowledgeable and passionate about helping others – our focus on flexibility is beneficial to all ages and levels of fitness! It’s often overlooked and has incredible results. When I’m not working or working out, I love playing and watching sports, going to concerts and trying new restaurants. My personal favorite stretch? Glutes and lower back. It always feels amazing.

Having to navigate my own health issues opened up a whole new world for me and I dove deep into this topic. My areas of interest are body movement, nutrition, and mental health. I have a degree in Kinesiology, a Holistic Nutrition Cert, and am currently pursuing my Masters in Nutrition. I love to find balance in all things, to constantly work on enjoying the present moment. StretchLab allows me to make personal connections, work with the community, pass on valuable information, and help others live more comfortably. What a privilege! Outside of work, I love to spend time with my husband and our animals. I also love cooking and baking, long walks in nature, going to the beach and learning about food! I’m excited to connect with you on the bench, create some goals and stretch together.

I have a BS in Kinesiology from San Diego State and am pursuing a degree in Occupational Therapy. I grew up playing sports, ran cross country in high school and was on the women’s rowing team in college. Having intentional time to go on a walk or hit the gym during my day is really important to me but so is making time to relax and recover! I love StretchLab because I get to share my knowledge about fitness and help others stay active and move better during their day. I love the one-on-one nature of my job and connecting with clients each session. My favorite stretch to give and receive is anything with the neck because it feels so good! Outside of work I like to lift at the gym, go on walks, hike, camp, and read by the pool. Hope to work with you and stretch together soon!

My work at a PT Clinic ignited my passion for rehabilitation and wellness. I’ve always been dedicated to fitness, and played several sports growing up. I hold a Bachelor's degree in Kinesiology with a concentration in Human Fitness and Performance. What drives me is the ability to help others improve their physical well-being, recover from injuries and level up their health overall. StretchLab aligns with my passion for rehabilitation, and I enjoy the hands-on approach and the personalized service we provide. Outside the studio, I love photography, travel and being in nature, staying active and exploring new fitness techniques. Can’t wait to stretch you out and get your body performing at its best!
