Welcome to StretchLab Winter Park

I can imagine that life can be quite hectic and stressful for most. As someone who has dedicated over 10 years to the fitness industry as a certified personal trainer I understand how important it is to take care of your physical and mental health. I was certified through the American Council on Exercise (ACE) and have a B.S. in Sports and Health Science. Additionally, I'm an NASM certified Stretching and Flexibility Coach. I know firsthand how powerful exercise can be for your overall well-being. Stretching is often overlooked when it comes to fitness and health, but at StretchLab, we can create a specific program to address areas of tightness and restriction and improve overall mobility and flexibility. The long-term adaptations in flexibility and mobility our clients gain carry over into every aspect of their physical and psychological lives, which is truly rewarding. When I'm not at work, I enjoy watching movies, Netflix series, and getting out in the sun. Spending quality time with my wife and daughter is something I love to do. I hope that through my work, I can help others experience the positive physiological and psychological benefits of exercise and lead a happier, healthier life.

I have been a Personal Trainer for 3 years and a Nutrition Coach since July 2021. I have my Bachelor's in Biomedical Science. In my free time, I love doing just about anything outdoors. I enjoy surfing, kayaking, hiking, mountain biking...you name it, I love it. I also love anything creative, especially painting and DIY's. What I love most about StretchLab is that it has enabled me to help people in a way that is so often neglected. I know firsthand, the importance of stretching. It has helped me to reduce my own back pain and prevent injury. Now I can do the same and more for others.

I am a personal trainer that loves the gym. I really enjoy lifting weights and circuit style training. I have been training in the gym since I was 19 years old. Seeing results in the gym has taught me there is no substitute for hard work. During my free-time I enjoy exploring different trails and creating H.I.I.T training workouts. What I love about StretchLab is meeting different people and personalities. Being a Flexologist has really opened my eyes towards the importance of stretching. In addition, I like to help people reach their wellness goals!

I was a high school athlete and I am currently a semi-pro athlete in indoor skydiving, as well as a personal trainer and powerlifter. I enjoy the gym, indoor and outdoor skydiving, hiking and anything water related. I also love to paint and hang out with my animals. I love StretchLab because I love helping people. I love getting to know people and being a positive impact in someone’s life. StretchLab has also helped me a lot in how I feel and move, so I'm already sold on the product.

I am currently finishing up my undergraduate education at the University of Central Florida in Health Science. I have been a licensed personal trainer for over a year and also have a background in Physical Therapy. Sports have been a staple in my life and have shown me the importance of stretching and body wellness. It is my goal in life to help those to reach their goals physically; ranging from someone trying to complete activities of daily living to an athlete trying to return/enhance their sports performance. Activities I do for fun include weight lifting, basketball, football, and reading. I am blessed to work for an astounding place like StretchLab and provide a great service of helping people maximize their potential.

Since earning my degree in Exercise Science and Health Promotion from FAU in 2017, I've been dedicated to living a healthy and happy lifestyle. Upon graduation, I began working as an Exercise Physiologist and Yoga Therapist at an outpatient Physical Therapy clinic. I wanted to do more in healthcare, and seeing how much technology was changing things, I made a bold career shift into Software Engineering. My goal is to create a program where I can combine my knowledge and experience in Health Science with Computer Science. When I’m not studying, I enjoy doing Yoga, working out at the gym, biking, hiking, playing pickleball, traveling, and spending time with my husband and dog - basically I love being outdoors and enjoying nature. I am also a big foodie, so I do LOVE to cook. What I love most about StretchLab is its commitment to helping individuals understand their bodies while guiding them to achieve their fitness goals. I strongly believe that staying active, stretching, and living a healthy lifestyle are key to longevity and being happy.

Hi my name is Nate and I am a Flexologist at the StretchLab in Winter Park. I received my Physical Therapist Assistant degree at State College of Florida in Bradenton. I have over two decades of experience in the health and fitness lifestyle and have competed in amateur bodybuilding competitions. I love being outdoors kayaking or mountain biking and I am the proud uncle of my sisters two boys and one girl. I am excited to be a part of the StretchLab family!!

As someone who tore their ACL playing football in high school, I was inspired by physical therapy methods which led to my background in personal training and current study of kinesthetics inspired by my weight loss journey. During my downtime, I enjoy playing guitar, relaxing outdoors, and hiking, but when I train, I enjoy the A/C and work hard doing HIIT workouts and weight training. StretchLab is great because it's easy to be passionate about a place that is equally passionate about keeping you moving and loving the things you do on a daily basis.

I have worked in the fitness industry for 5 years providing personal training. I received my Doctor of physical therapy degree from FIU in 2022. Outside of work, I love going zip lining. I also enjoy weight lifting and pole fitness. I love that StretchLab gives me the chance to work hands on with people to improve their quality of life through improved movement.

I graduated with my Bachelor’s degree in Kinesiology in December of 2023. I am currently in the Seminole State Physical Therapist Assistant program earning my license. I have been working in the health and wellness industry for about 4 years. In my free time I enjoy going to the gym and keeping my body active. I like trying new things with my workouts. Whether that’s boxing, HIIT, CrossFit, etc. I love anything that keeps me moving and is fun! I also love to read in my free time. I try to read 6-7 books a month. I love StretchLab because I get to help people feel better in their daily life. Being able to work with people hands on and be a part of why they feel better and why they can now do things they used to not be able to do is so rewarding.
