Welcome to StretchLab Brighton

Hello! I’m Kayla Doan. I'm a Certified Personal Trainer and am very passionate about fitness! I currently compete in the NPC doing body building competitions. I have a BS degree in Dietetics from Michigan State University and a BS degree in Wellness Health Promotion and Injury prevention with a minor in Nutrition from Oakland University. I also have extensive experience with behavior therapy for children who have autism. While at Oakland University, I ran Division 1 cross country, indoor track, and outdoor track. I went on to run marathons after college as well as qualifying for the Boston marathon. I look forward to seeing you in the studio soon!

Hello, my name is Sam. I achieved my Bachelor's Degree in Clinical Exercise Science from Grand Valley and my Masters in Sports Science and Rehabilitation from Logan University. I am currently pursuing my Physical Therapy Assistant degree at Baker College. I have previous experience working as a physical therapy technician, personal trainer, and a rehab specialist. I’m excited to help individuals at StretchLab achieve their fitness goals, stretching and flexibility goals. In my spare time, I love the outdoors, whether that be going on walks or hikes with my husband and my two labs. I also enjoy traveling to new places in the summer with our camper or taking weekend trips. I’ve always had a passion for helping others and I’m looking forward to creating connections with members and helping them reach their goals. Can’t wait to see you in the studio!

Hi! I am Bella. I have a Bachelor's Degree in Exercise Science from GVSU and I am certified in CPR/AED and First Aid. I have extensive experience helping patients who have suffered traumatic brain injuries, spinal cord injuries, strokes, and amputations regain their ability to perform daily functions. I dedicated over 300 hours to the Special Olympics helping kids and young adults with special needs learn exercises and stretches needed for their sport. Sports and athletics have been important to me my entire life, playing soccer, track, and skiing. In my spare time, I enjoy skiing, kayaking, paddleboarding and hiking. I primarily work weekday evenings and Saturdays and look forward to seeing you in the studio!

Hello! I am Olivia! I have a bachelor’s degree from Eastern Michigan University in Sports Performance and Fitness Entrepreneurship.

I graduated from Baker College in Royal Oak with an Associate of Applied Science degree from the Physical Therapist Assistant program. I am BLS certified through the American Heart Association and am currently working toward obtaining my PTA license. Through my clinical experiences, I gained hands-on experience in neurological, inpatient cardiopulmonary, and orthopedic rehabilitation. These experiences helped strengthen my passion for movement, recovery, and helping others feel more confident in their bodies. As a competitive dancer for 13 years, I developed a deep appreciation for flexibility, mobility, and injury prevention. At StretchLab, I’m excited to use my background to help clients move better, reduce tension, and feel their best. Outside the studio, I enjoy painting, spending time with friends and family, and spoiling my cat, Leo, and my Lab, Macee.

As a 16-year veteran bodybuilder and certified specialist in Muscle Systems and Activation, I bring a deep understanding of strength, mobility, and recovery to every session. I view stretching as more than simply improving flexibility — I see it as an active part of building strength, improving performance, and helping the body move the way it was designed to move. My go-to approach incorporates isometrics, which use muscle tension to help create meaningful mobility gains. At StretchLab, I don’t just stretch you — I help educate you on how your body works so you can better understand your movement patterns, support your recovery, and feel more confident in your body. Whether your goal is to move better, recover faster, improve performance, or simply feel stronger in everyday life, I’m excited to help you get there.
