Assisted Stretching Studio To Open In New Canaan Feb. 8
The StretchLab location will be the company's first in Connecticut.

From StretchLab: StretchLab, the premier assisted stretching franchise, is opening its first Connecticut location in New Canaan. Located at 86 Main Street in New Canaan, the studio will introduce people of all ages, fitness levels, genders and sizes to the various health and wellness benefits of working with highly trained Flexologists™ in an open, modern, fun and approachable environment.
The New Canaan studio will celebrate its grand opening with four weeks of special membership pricing beginning February 8. During that time, the studio will give the New Canaan community an opportunity to become familiar with the StretchLab experience and various services, including one-on-one assisted stretching and small group stretching classes. Deep stretching is not only scientifically proven to effectively decrease pain, lower risk of injury and reduce stress, but it also provides the ability to perform better at work, in the gym and in everyday life.
StretchLab of New Canaan is owned and operated by Adam Kanzer. A lifelong athlete, Adam credits his lack of injuries over the past four decades to a longtime dedication to stretching. After a successful career in advertising, Adam was on the search for something more personally fulfilling. He discovered StretchLab, and after learning more about it, Adam knew it would be the perfect concept to introduce to New Canaan, a town where fitness and well-being is a priority. The New Canaan studio will be the first of six locations Adam will open in Fairfield and Westchester counties.

“Whatever it is you love to do in life, stretching can help you do more of it,” Adam said. Better flexibility, mobility, posture, and range of motion can help make you a better parent. A better employee. A better athlete. Stretching is something we all know is so beneficial for us. It prevents injury, reduces pain, and improves your overall performance and quality of life. We just need to carve out more time for it.”
StretchLab offers a variety of one-on-one personalized stretching services including a 25-minute stretch that concentrates on the client’s current stretching needs, as well as a 50-minute head-to-toe deep stretch that addresses all major muscle groups. In addition to one-on-one stretching services, two small-format group stretching classes are available in which a trained Flexologist™ leads clients through a warm-up and sequence of stretches to address major muscle groups. Monthly memberships are available for four or eight visits per month, as well as drop-in classes.
