Carmen Haywood

Unbinded Stretch was born from a simple truth: most people are living in bodies they've never fully unlocked.

Founded by former Division I athlete Carmen Haywood, known as BendiCarmen, Unbinded Stretch exists to close the gap on one of the most overlooked components of health: stretching and mobility. Despite its proven impact on performance, recovery, and pain management, stretching is consistently the last thing people prioritize and the first thing they skip.

BendiCarmen is here to change that.

Through expert-led stretch therapy and mobility training, she helps athletes recover faster, desk workers move without pain, and anyone carrying tension in their body find real, lasting relief. Every session is intentional, personalized, and built around one goal, helping you unlock your body's full potential.

At Unbinded Stretch, stretching isn't an afterthought. It's the foundation.

"From start to finish, I wholeheartedly loved this class! It was such a wonderful experience! The music, the view, the cold towel, and everything in between was amazing! I appreciated Carmen taking the time to personally greet us in the parking lot. I appreciate the care that Carmen took to gently guide us into a deeper stretch. Allowing our bodies to be challenged but also not overextending ourselves. As a beginner I'm so grateful, my body feels great. I look forward to the next class."
