The mission of Stretch-n-Grow of Winston-Salem (and the Triad) is the same as that of Stretch-n-Grow International:
- To teach as many children as possible the basics of proper exercise, nutrition, and related health issues.
- To establish patterns and positive attitude at an early age that will be the foundation for a lifetime of healthy habits.
- 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, nutrition, and other related issues in an effort to encourage each family to participate in a fitness program.
- To build a strong, profitable company that operates with integrity and dedication to our mission, our employees, and the families we serve.
Our extensive curriculum was developed under the supervision of an advisory board made up of pediatricians, nutritionists, and educators. All of our exercises comply 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 today.

Each week, I am able to share with the children and staff new ways to get healthy and to grow. SNG is an excellent program and I am so glad to be able to be part of it.
