Hi, I'm Renee
No matter where you are, I’ve got the map to lead you from Pain to Performance.
What I've Been Up To
I am passionate about community wellness and I love getting out and sharing my techniques with others. I've been able to educate and heal through workshops and seminars. It has been a pleasure to meet and interact with so many people, so please take a glimpse into my recent happenings.
Showing women in a homeless shelter stretching and exercises
Keeping men in shelters moving and flexible
Taking time to have fun with my Meetup Group
Everything starts at the ankle and feet.
Stop by to give the women's basketball team some stretching pointers.
