Core Studio & Stretch Therapy

Expérience fantastique: Problems with a knee that, at times, left me limping and with limited mobility, led me down a path of physio and laser therapies that, disappointingly, made almost no lasting difference. Fortunately, I gave Fascial Stretch Therapy a try and discovered a treatment that has left me with lasting comfort and mobility. As other parts of my body compensated to support my knee, FST has also helped my alignment, taking pressure off other joints, too. As I head out for daily hikes, I feel like I have my life back again. I am so grateful to Daris and her amazing skill as a Fascial Stretch Therapist.

Expérience fantastique: When enrolling at Core you discuss your needs with Daris and complete a questionnaire that helps her to understand which class is right for YOU. She remembers what each person can and cannot do and customizes movements accordingly. At the end of 2019, after a knee replacement, I joined the Cranky Hip/Knee class. Once I improved my mobility, I moved to the Building Strength class, which is currently a good fit for me. Even though I have been attending Core for more than four years, each class is different, with a large variation of stretches, exercises, and support gym equipment to add fun to the movements, such as mats, weights, balancing balls, straps, rollers, beams, chairs, etc. Attendees only need to show up with their own water bottles – as you do get thirsty. During classes, Daris is attentive to everyone in attendance and either assist each attendee to do the exercise correctly or demonstrates an alternative exercise that fits individual body shortcomings, needs, and strengths. She is an amazing teacher/trainer with a friendly personality who makes the hard workouts fun and helps us to understand the benefits of what we are doing. Core is a small boutique gym, where I feel welcome and wear clothes I can move in, without any need to impress with trendy outfits. ☺

Expérience fantastique: I’ve been going to Core Studio for a little over a year now and I am so grateful to my friend who referred me. Because of Daris’s knowledge, expertise and under her watchful eye, I no longer have issues with my lower back and I am so much stronger overall. There are always several variations for each exercise geared to each person’s individual issues and fitness level. Classes are never boring as Daris will change it up with different exercises to keep it interesting. And best of all, classes are fun!!

Expérience fantastique: Daris is a wonderful instructor who has had training in the ways to encourage great results in her clients. I totally recommend her courses.
