The Extensa™ method
Help your participants get flexible by reducing stiffness and pain, improving sports performance or just getting in better shape.
There are other flexibility instructor certifications out there, but most fall short of providing lasting results because their programs are too difficult for the intended audience.
We pride ourselves on offering simple and easy to achieve stretching programs. Stretching should be easy and feel good!

Why choose the Extensa™ method
Stretching instructors all over the world are using our flexibility techniques and routines
Our Extensa certified instructors are a mix of group fitness instructors, dance teachers, personal trainers, yoga and pilates instructors and sports coaches. They all certify with us for the same reason: to learn simple stretching routines that provide lasting results for their clients and for themselves!
Don't think your flexible enough?
Our Extensa programs are specially designed to improve and maintain flexibility for an active lifestyle and not to achieve the splits or extreme flexibility.
Most of our certified instructors do not have extreme flexibility. Nor is it required to certify.
Naturally your flexibility will improve while studying our instructor course. You can always continue to improve and attempt to achieve extreme flexibility or you can maintain your new level of flexibility.

What our Extensa instructors are saying
Not only do our instructors love the feedback they receive from their participants but they also love the personal benefits they experience too!
Extensa Fitness is a program that over time has given me more flexibility but also better posture and balance. It has allowed me to better connect with my body and have more control over my movements. The dynamic exercises allow me to work in depth, which makes it an even more effective workout compared to the traditional stretching class I attended before I became an Extensa instructor. Teaching it is also a unique experience and participants are very satisfied with the benefits they feel after the class.
Cynthia Legris
Extensa Certified Instructor
As an instructor, YES, this is the COURSE I NEEDED to add not only for my clients, but for MY OWN WELL-BEING:) It is SO much more than a simple stretching session. After class, participants often comment on how amazing it is that they got a “workout” at the same time feeling a great sense of well-being. A bit like after a massage:) I am used to intense classes, but I chose to do my Extensa training because I needed a class that would allow me to take care of my body... THANK YOU!!!! EXTENSA
