After working 7 years in mental health, Maria found her true inspiration through perspiration. Maria started her career in the fitness and wellness industry over 15 years ago and has never looked back. In 2009 she opened a boutique fitness studio, Bounce Aerobics, with our GM Christine, inside Marketplace Mall. The facility ran successfully for 10 years before they decided to close the doors and Maria shifted her focus from group fitness to personal training. Maria is both AFAA and ACE certified, a mindfulness coach with Alignment Essentials, holds a black belt in several fighting arts and has additional certifications in a multitude of specialties. Maria is an advocate for the importance of physical, mental, and emotional wellness and believes they are the cornerstones to living a joy-filled life. Maria is overjoyed with the opportunity to share her love and knowledge of this industry with members at StretchLab. When she is not at the studio, she is either sipping her brewmaster husband’s latest creation, watching her 2 step children compete at AQ’s mission bouts, listening to her oldest daughter rock out on the guitar or watching her youngest crush the ball at her softball game.

Gina comes to StretchLab with a bachelor's degree in nursing, working as a RN for 25 years. During the uncertainty of covid, she took time off working to stay home and navigate life for her family. Fitness became a great outlet and passion at that time, which led her to get NASM certified as a personal trainer. Stretchlab is the perfect way to combine helping people with some health or fitness issues to find improvement through gentle movement. In her free time, she works out at her favorite gym, watches her two kids play sports along with her husband,  and spends time with her family and friends enjoying the Finger Lakes.

Maggie has been dancing ever since she could walk. She learned to communicate through movement early on when she still had a sever stutter. Since then, Maggie has danced competitively, pre-professionally at Draper, and professionally with NYSB and RCB. The relationship between ballet and stretching is very intimate, and Maggie knows how important the role of flexibility is for the body’s overall well-being. Since 2018, Maggie has shared the years of knowledge and experience she’s gained with the next generation of dancers in the Rochester area. In 2020, Maggie completed NASM’s personal training course to provide both herself, and her students, proper training techniques to prevent injuries, build strength, and improve coordination. Maggie believes that flexibility is a key factor in strengthening the mind/body connection. At StretchLab, she hopes to help each unique client live their lives fully, without aches and pains to hold them back. When Maggie is not stretching or teaching, she is in school pursuing an Associate’s degree in applied business sciences or playing with her high energy rescue pup, Dash!

Elise earned her undergraduate degree in biology and chemistry and spent the next several years searching for the right career fit. It wasn't until rekindling her passion for movement that she found the right path by venturing in a new direction, fitness and health. Preventative health and living pain free, both physically and mentally, is what drives her forward and led her to becoming a 200-hr certified yoga instructor in 2020. From there, she went on to earn her group fitness instructor certification and coaching behavior certification through ACE and is always looking forward to expanding her knowledge of movement and mental health. When not in the studio, she is trying to do everything she can, from teaching vinyasa, working on her art business, playing video games or experimenting in the kitchen, walking in nature, or discovering music just to name a few of her hobbies.
