  Haley

  Lead Flexologist

  Growing up as a dancer, stretching has been an important part of my life and I am excited to share it with others. I trained competitively in ballet, contemporary, and jazz for 10+ years, where I gained personal experience attending to injury prevention and rehabilitation. As a dance performer and choreographer, I see movement as an art form as well as an accessible therapeutic practice. In my spare time, I love to snowboard, wakeboard, and play bass guitar. With a BA in Psychology, and Concentration in Dance from Lewis & Clark College, I approach healing with an understanding of the interconnected relationship between mind and body. My studies in India, Sri Lanka, and Tibet further integrated mindfulness and breathwork into my meditative and stretch practices. My experience as a healthcare provider developed my patient-centered approach towards care. I look forward to working together to help you feel your best.

  Flexologist

  I believe that our bodies are meant to move. Growing up as a competitive gymnast, I loved exploring all the ways I could teach my body to push, stretch, and fly. Now as an adult, I've learned how important it is to incorporate movement in my daily routine, not just in exercise, but also as a means to ground myself into my body. From cycling, hiking, dancing, and flipping, I find some of the greatest feelings of peace (and exhilaration) through movement. I have several years of experience coaching competitive gymnastics and recreational pole dance, where mobility and flexibility are an essential part of my teaching. As a Flexologist, I am excited to learn how my clients move and help them build the proprioceptive mind-body connection through stretching. Let's work together on your holistic movement and mobility journey.

  Logan

  Flexologist

  I grew up in Texas, where I first found my interest in fitness and health with Powerlifting and Olympic Weightlifting. In 2019 I graduated from the University of Texas at Austin with a Bachelor's degree in Kinesiology, focusing primarily on Strength and Conditioning coaching. Through all this, the primary missing link for many people's performance goals is in their flexibility. Before making the move to Portland, I spent my first two years out of college with personal training, where I guided my clients to target the whole system of the body with flexibility and core stability training on top of more traditional strength and conditioning practices. I find the journey of guiding my clients towards their goals to be immensely satisfying, and I can't wait to start stretching with you soon!

  Andrew

  Flexologist

  I continue to encounter an insatiable curiosity and appreciation for the role of movement, breath, attention, and play in learning, healing, integration and development. As a student of martial arts, massage, dance, meditation, music, yoga, plant medicine, and community gatherings I'm inspired by watching energy transport and transform within and between beings and physiologies. In a past life, I did community development nonprofit work, OD business consulting, catastrophe insurance claims stuff, and ayurvedic clinician alchemy. These days, I find myself attending StretchLab and massage school —moving, playing, learning and healing with people while going deeper into the study and practice of therapeutic relationships and touch. I'm humbled and enthused to meet you on the stretch bench. Come as you are! Namaste

  Jordan

  Flexologist

  Northern California is where I first started my journey of understanding the body through dance. I continued that journey in college where I received a B.F.A. in dance and later in New York where I danced professionally, performing in opera houses and museums around the world. In addition to dance, I currently have a strong yoga practice, so the transition to StretchLab feels natural. I’m interested in using my dance experiences and movement background to assist people in a greater understanding of their bodies and how beneficial a stretch practice can be. Looking forward to stretching together!
