What We Do

Stretch-n-Grow is a comprehensive fitness program for kids. We help educators and parents establish a foundation of exercise and proper nutrition beginning at an early age.

The program teaches children the fundamentals of a healthy lifestyle with weekly emphasis on exercise and good food choices.  Our extensive curriculum covers virtually every wellness issue; self-esteem, safety, hygiene, and environmental issues are just a few examples of our discussion topics.

Classes in San Diego are taught at preschools and child care centers, elementary schools, parks, and select venues in your community by Stretch-n-Grow coaches who make exercising, "EXERciting!!"

We customize our classes for each age group, beginning at 18 months and going up to 12th grade. 

Since 1992, hundreds of thousands of children across the United States, Canada, Australia, Ireland, New Zealand, Hong Kong, Guatemala, Portugal, Puerto Rico, Spain, the United Kingdom and Kenya have participated in the Stretch-n-Grow Fitness Program!!

All of our exercises are in compliance with the Youth Fitness Guidelines established by the American Fitness and Aerobics Association and American Council on Exercise; the two leading authorities in group fitness.

• To teach as many children as possible the basics of proper exercise, nutrition, and related health issues.

• To establish patterns and a positive attitude at an early age that will be the foundation for a continuing physical conditioning program and good health.

• To prepare children for participation in physical education and athletic programs.

• To provide parents, caregivers, and educators of young children with current information concerning proper exercise and nutrition, and other related issues, in an effort to encourage each family to participate together in a fitness program.
