Hi, I'm Brooklyn! I'm a Sports and Exercise Science major from Canada and am currently studying to become a chiropractor. I've been involved in sports like volleyball and basketball since I was 12 and have seen and felt the benefits of stretching on your own and with the help of others. I'm a big believer that physical activity can improve your quality of life and health and that being active for life can be great for preventative medicine. My focus is helping you understand your own body more; being able to recognise which areas of your body are having issues and being able to address those specific problems within the larger context of your health. In my own time, I like to go for walks and do more artistic hobbies to keep my interests open.
