Welcome to Stretchlab Winrock

Jared was a student-athlete at Dakota Wesleyan University where he earned a Bachelors of Science in Sports, Exercise, and Wellness while playing soccer for the University. Jared chose his major due to injuries he had to overcome, during his soccer career. Jared rehabbed and recovered from ACL reconstruction on both knees. During his second rehab, he learned the importance of stretching and all the benefits that come from it. StretchLab has given Jared the opportunity to share the benefits of stretch with the community of Albuquerque.

Felicia joins the StretchLab team with a decade of experience working in the medical field, an Anusara yoga teaching certification, and she is currently finishing up a yoga therapy/herbalism certification. She teaches a few weekly yoga classes here in Albuquerque. “I believe that movement is a deeply unique and personal journey for everyone. No two bodies are exactly alike so we shouldn’t treat them as such. I like to empower clients and students to become comfortable exploring their bodies capabilities and to deepen their relationship to movement and breath in a holistic, creative, healthy, and safe way.” Felicia is currently the Lead Flexologist at StretchLab Winrock. Felicia conducts and creates educational seminars to make sure our team stays current and to ensure our guests are getting a stellar stretch every time. Felicia's intention as a Flexologist is to assist clients in decreasing pain, increasing mobility, and to teach them small habits they can use in their daily lives to move in a more natural, intuitive way.
