Alex - Human Performance Specialist
Hey folks, I'm Alex! I've worn many hats over the years – personal trainer, corrective exercise specialist, health educator – and I've spent over 20 years diving into the world of martial arts.
I'm a firm believer in the regenerative ability of the human body, which is why I teach people how to move better, stay active, and resolve their aches and pains independently.
What really drives me is streamlining the complexities of health, wellness, and fitness for everyone. I want to demystify concerns like joint pain, injuries, and stress, so you can address them right from your living room. In fact, my goal is to empower you to not need me at all!
Beyond my professional life, I'm deeply passionate about martial arts and music. Although I’m not a dancer, I've found a world of inspiration in both and how it has the power to transform lives.

My approach centers on strengthening both the body and the mind, helping you build resilience and confidence.

Claire - Human Performance Specialist
Hi, I'm Claire. As a Clinical Exercise Physiologist, I have helped a variety of clients, from chronic illness to elite athletic performance, successfully achieve their personal fitness goals. Having my mother who is a cancer survivor and my biggest role model, I ran across the country from San Francisco, CA to Baltimore, MD to raise money and awareness for the Ulman Foundation. I now manage programs with the Travis Manion Foundation, empowering veterans and families of fallen heroes to develop character in future generations. I primarily serve The Lab community in South Jersey and virtual/online programs.
-
Melissa - Yoga Specialist
Hey! I’m Melissa. Though hesitant at first, I began my yoga practice in 2014 and soon found it allowed me to connect with myself and be present while navigating the stress of grad school. As a (former) anthropologist, I offer a deep sense of curiosity. I am constantly observing and asking questions in order to be a better resource to those around me. I want to know what makes you you: why do you wake up in the morning and what brings you to your mat. As a yoga practitioner, I design my classes to balance effort and ease in yoga, and life. When I’m not on my mat, I’m baking, reading, consulting, leading the best cook(book) club in Philly, and (sometimes) running.
-
Gabbi - Yoga & Sound Healing Specialist
Namaste, I’m Gabbi! My practices are about personal liberation and embodiment. I have experienced free movement as a catalyst for my own healing, and now my purpose and passion is to share this powerful tool with others. Moving our bodies out of love and curiosity rather than judgment or expectation, invites us to dance with the flow of life. As a yoga teacher, pilates instructor, transformational coach, and sound healer, I create experience for curious self-healers to feel connected and supported when seeking their truth and striving towards their goals.
-
Dave - Yoga & Meditation Specialist
Hi, I’m Dave and I operate from the heart. My passion is to teach diverse methods of healing through thoughtful combinations of therapeutic, philosophical, and dynamic movements. I have navigated my own darkness through homelessness and addiction before finding my light in Yoga. My shoes are full of lessons. I believe in unifying scientific and spiritual studies in order to create unique programming that benefits our clients’ specific needs.
-
Marina - Human Performance Specialist
Hey! My name is Marina, but your kids might call me Mermaid Mina during class. I have been working with swimmers of all ages from infants to adults for the last 15 years. It has been my greatest gift imparting the joys of swimming to my clients. For me, the water has always been my safe space. It’s where I go to ground, rejuvenate, and reconnect with myself — which is what I hope to share with my clients.
Additionally, I have experienced incredible breakthroughs through consistent yoga practice and energy healing, which I began practicing while living abroad. Now back in Philly, it is a privilege to share mindfulness and embodiment practices with clients looking to find reprieve from the daily hustle and grind. I aim to slow things down enough to allow your system to recalibrate to harmony. Whether it’s in the pool or on the mat, I look forward to seeing you to your personal success.
-
Maximus - Aquatic Specialist
Hi, I’m Maximus. I am a swim instructor with The Lab and it has been an amazing journey so far. I’m currently studying Elementary Education at Temple University and hoping to get my doctorate to broaden my perspective on life and education. Since I was a child, I’ve been very drawn to the natural elements and water was a direct connection to who I felt I could be. As a competitive swimmer for 10+ years, I’ve learned so much about the magic that the pool can bring to your everyday life. My goal with The Lab is to share these experiences in a stress free environment and, hopefully, build a strong sense of partnership with my clients and the water.
-
Olivia - Aquatic Specialist
Hey y’all! I’m Olivia. I’ve worked with swimmers of all ages for more than 17 years. My parents told me that at 6 months old, I toddled over and jumped into a hotel pool which scared them but ignited my love of the water. I began my competitive swimming career at the age of eight (8) and swam all the way through high school, at Friends’ Central, and collegiately, at Ohio Wesleyan University. My passion is in making sure that everyone has access and the skills needed to feel at home in the water. I am an athlete, a traveler, and a multi hyphenated human overall. I look forward to working with you and The Lab soon!

Casie - Licensed Massage Therapist
Hi! My name is Casie, LMT for The Lab. My thirst for knowledge to understand the body and how it works quickly turned into a passion as I fell in love with fitness. Through that journey of pushing my body to new limits I recognized that massage was integral to my recovery. After years of receiving bodywork, manipulating muscles and structures to help increase the recovery and healing process, I knew that I wanted to do the same for others!

Matt - Strength & Conditioning Specialist
What’s going on Lab Nation! My name is Matt Walker, and I am a Strength and Conditioning Specialist for The Lab. I come to the Lab with 15 years of experience in fitness, wellness, performance and education. As a teacher turned strength coach, I found that just like any classroom, the weight room/gym is just another classroom for people to learn, grow, and excel at new things. I am always reminding people about this Arthur Ashe quote: “Success is a journey, not a destination. The doing is often more important than the outcome.” Keep showing up, put in that work and enjoy the ride!
