Meet Our Instructors

Jane is proud to have a very talented team of instructors working alongside her so your child has a fun filled experience of exercise.

Class Props & Equipment

We incorporate props and equipment into all of our classes and camps, a feature that is very popular with the children. Working with props helps to improve fine and gross motor skills, balance, coordination and movement whilst having the added benefit of making kids unknowingly harder!

We carry an extensive range of skill based equipment which is used for both our after school classes and our camps, through obstacle courses, relays, stepping stones, and tunnels to name but a few.

Classes & Camps

Classes & camps are held in creches and schools all year round, offering
convenience for busy parents and familiarity for children.

Movement Ability

We forget that movement has to be taught to young children, movement patterns are cemented into the brain, so the more movements that can be performed and repeated the better. We can certainly work on all of that in our Stretch n Grow classes.

Social Skills

Stretch n Grow is a very social class, children engage with their instructor and the group all throughout the class. Of course all children interact at different levels however what is so rewarding for us is that when we start a term with a shy child, who may not be ready to engage fully with it but after 3 or 4 weeks that same child has come out of their shell and is happy and comfortable and eagerly engaging with everyone. The class proves to be very good at building confidence and self esteem.

Healthy Eating

Children have to be taught how to make healthy choices, that’s why each week in class we bring in either a fruit or a vegetable, we educate the children as to the name of it, where it grows, how we cook it, or maybe, we can eat it raw, we tell them what vitamins it has and how its good for our body.

Within the class children are making the connection that I need to eat our healthy food to get a healthy body and doing our exercise will give me a strong body. They are never too young to learn this and start practicing what we preach!

Our Results Speak for themsleves!

We are proud to provide an outstanding programme and service that meets the needs of both the children and the facility providers. Our reputation speaks for itself as we are still teaching in creches and schools that we started in 16 years ago.

We have many families where multiple children have taken part in SnG classes and our camps fill up very quickly with repeat bookings, a testament to the high quality service we provide.
