About Stretch-n-Grow of Indianapolis South

Hey friends! My name is Ali Massaro, and I am happy to say I am bringing the EXERcitement of children’s fitness to Indianapolis! Exercise has always been a big part of my life growing up. From my grandparents Bob and Jill founding Stretch-n-Grow in 1992 to my ten years of playing competitive softball in my youth and current participation in a competitive adult league, physical fitness has always been a constant. Add that to my lifelong dream of being a part of the family business, and you’ve got Stretch-n-Grow of Indianapolis South!

I have always had a bubbly and outgoing personality and absolutely love teaching and helping children grow to their full potential, which is what Stretch-n-Grow is all about! Our classes are about 30-40 minutes long and continuously keep the children engaged – all while they’re learning healthy exercise habits and conditioning the muscles of their entire body. Stickers and stamps are given to the children for working hard, listening well, and just having fun!

About Stretch-n-Grow International

Stretch-n-Grow was conceived in January of 1992 by Jill and Bob Manly, with a plan to conduct classes on a local level only in their home town of Galveston, Texas. The simple concept of providing a comprehensive fitness program at an early, impressionable age grew quickly into an impressive world-wide network of dedicated, talented people with the common goal of building a successful organization that has a positive impact on the health and fitness of young children.

Stretch-n-Grow is a family and faith based company. Jill’s daughter Amanda Hollowell joined the company shortly after the birth of Jill and Bob’s daughter Megan in July 1992, and currently serves as Chief Operating Officer. Megan joined the team after graduating from the University of South Florida in 2016 and serves as Vice President while also managing her own Stretch-n-Grow in St. Petersburg, FL.

And here is the “happy ending” to this story: there are now millions of Stretch-n-Grow “Stars” around the world learning to enjoy a healthy lifestyle while building a foundation of fitness and well-being!
