I booked a session at Stretch Theory after a bad experience at a chiropractor. I went in to stretch out sore and stiff muscles in my hip, shoulder, and neck. This was my first time getting myofascial work done on my muscles. The experience was life changing for me. I am a former high school and college athlete, and Nakia worked deep on muscles that haven't been reached in over 20 years. My first session was uncomfortable because of the lactid acid built up over time, but I knew this is what my body needed. After my session, my body felt lighter and I moved easier. I immediately booked a package because I knew that I needed more sessions to continue working out the stiffness deep in my muscles. Nakia is extremely talented in this type of body work. His studio is calming and pleasant. I only wished that I did this type of therapy earlier during the years I was running track and playing tennis. I could have saved myself from enduring so...
Ā Ā Ā Read moreI LOVE STRETCH THEORY! Brande and Nikia have done so much to support my household's health journey. I've been practicing Pilates with Brande for almost 2 years and have never felt this strong and balanced. I lost 20lbs and regained my body after pregnancy.

Every move builds a powerful sweat while keeping you connected to your body. Her class is the perfect blend of stretch and strength, leaving you feeling both lengthened and strong.
Now, Nakia may own the studio and call himself a Pilates instructor, but it shows that he is neither prepared nor qualified to teach at a professional level. His knowledge of Pilates is surface-level at best, and his lack of true practice undermines the credibility of the classes. Add to that an environment clouded by unprofessionalism, arrogance and questionable business practices? It became clear this is not a studio built on integrity. I would caution anyone expecting...
