Welcome to StretchLab Stamford

I was born and raised in Connecticut. With 17 years of experience as a licensed massage therapist in the Stamford area, I've always been passionate about health, fitness, and nutrition since my teenage years. Alongside my belief in the body/mind/spirit connection, I've practiced and taught QiGong deep breathing meditation. As a flexologist at StretchLab, I understand the significance of routine stretching in your fitness regimen and its myriad benefits.

Having played football in high school and college, I understand the significance of stretching for performance, recovery, and rehabilitation. My passion for sports drove me to work with Division 1 athletes at Yale University and the University of Buffalo, aiding them in enhancing performance and recovering from injuries. I'm deeply passionate about assisted stretching and find joy in witnessing every individual I work with strive to achieve their goals and feel their best.

I'm Ali, originally from Northwestern, CT. I graduated from the University of Vermont with a B.S. in Exercise Science and Nutrition and Food Science. I'm also a certified personal trainer through NASM. My interests include climbing, hiking, cycling, skiing, and yoga. I'm passionate about helping others feel better through the transformative power of physical movement and promoting positivity. I strongly believe in the concept that "exercise (and movement) is medicine." Engaging in regular stretching and flexibility programs empowers people to move freely and purposefully throughout their lives.

As a licensed physical therapist, I've gained valuable experience in sub-acute and outpatient rehabilitation settings. My focus has been on working with the geriatric population, addressing a range of orthopedic, neuromuscular, and cardiorespiratory conditions. Additionally, I'm a certified Zumba instructor, having taught classes to adults as well as children in summer camps and after-school programs. Personally, I enjoy attending Crossfit classes and strongly advocate for the importance of strength and mobility in promoting overall well-being.

I'm Paula, born and raised in Los Angeles, and I've delved deeply into the world of yoga. As a certified Yoga Therapy teacher, I've spent years sharing my expertise in Stamford and Greenwich. Through my extensive practice and study, I've cultivated a profound comprehension of the mind-body connection. My belief? You're only as old as your spine.

As a graduate from Manhattanville College with a Bachelor of Fine Arts in dance, I've acquired a deep understanding of flexibility and mobility. My experience includes training dancers to reach new heights of performance by focusing on proper body mechanics.
