Emily K
Flexologist
I am originally from Mooresville, NC, where I grew up spending most of my time playing soccer and maintaining a weekly gym routine. I have always had a strong passion for fitness and health, and my interest for the practice of yoga sparked in high school when I started utilizing it for stretching and flexibility purposes. After practicing a few times, I discovered that yoga was much more than a flexibility tool, and it soon became one of my greatest passions. The impact that yoga and a regular exercise regime had on my mental, physical, and emotional health led me to delve even deeper into educating myself on the "why" and the importance of maintaining a healthy lifestyle. I then relocated to Wilmington to pursue my Bachelors degree in Exercise Science as well as a minor in Yoga Studies. In Spring of 2022, I graduated with my Bachelors of Science and my 200-hour Registered Yoga Teacher certification. Since graduating, I have found myself interning in Strength and Conditioning settings, working in Physical Therapy clinics, and gaining exposure teaching within the yoga community. After discovering that Physical Therapy was not for me, I soon after found StretchLab. I knew right away that assisted stretching would be right up my alley. I am so excited to work with a variety of clients and assist them in overcoming the restricting barriers that have been limiting their quality of life. My free time is spent walking the loop, practicing yoga, cooking and baking, going to the beach, and tending to my houseplants!
