Skyler brings a strong background in movement, mobility, flexibility, and wellness to her work as a stretchologist. With experience as a professional dancer, she developed a deep understanding of body mechanics, recovery, flexibility, and the importance of proper movement — knowledge she now uses to help clients feel and move better in everyday life.

Skyler also studied Kinesiology, the science of human movement, which focuses on how the body functions through exercise, mobility, muscle performance, and overall physical health. This educational background allows her to create more effective, personalized stretching sessions based on each client’s needs, goals, and movement patterns.

In addition to her dance and kinesiology background, Skyler served as a Lead Flexologist at StretchLab, where she gained hands-on experience working one-on-one with clients to improve flexibility, mobility, recovery, and overall range of motion.

As a stretchologist, Skyler customizes each session to the individual. Whether a client is looking to reduce stiffness, recover from workouts, improve athletic performance, prevent injury, or simply move more comfortably throughout the day, her approach is focused on helping the body move with greater ease and confidence.

Skyler is passionate about helping clients feel stronger, looser, and more connected to their bodies through consistent mobility and recovery work. Currently serving clients in the Tampa Bay area, she is committed to helping people of all fitness levels improve how they move, recover, and feel every day.
