The international
women-centered stretching studio brand

TOPSTRETCHING is an international women-centered brand of stretching and mobility studios. Since 2014 we have grown from a single studio into an international brand — with a defined method and a school of the splits.

TOPSTRETCHING is where women build flexibility, strength and posture, step by step. Our studios teach stretching, split school, aerial stretching (AEROSTRETCHING), strength formats for body and glutes, facebuilding and 20+ more directions, led by trainers with real sports backgrounds.

You will find TOPSTRETCHING studios in Bali and Zurich, with Phuket under construction, and an online school that lets you train from anywhere. Whether you start from zero or already touch your toes, the method meets you where you are.

More than a split

The TOPSTRETCHING method is a step-by-step path from your first stretch toward the full split, built on real sports expertise — working on flexibility, strength, posture and state.

01

Practice

Body, posture and state — a practice, not a one-off trick.

02

Expertise through sport

Trainers with real sports backgrounds, taught and assessed in our method.

03

Visible progress

A measurable path: range of motion in numbers, not promises. Measurement is being restored as a network standard.

04

One standard

A defined method and trainer education, being standardised across the network.

FAQ

Stretching &
TOPSTRETCHING — FAQ

What is TOPSTRETCHING?

TOPSTRETCHING is an international women-centered brand of stretching and mobility studios, founded in 2014 — a defined method, a split school, AEROSTRETCHING and 20+ training directions, with studios in Bali and Zurich, Phuket under construction, and an online school.

How long does it take to do the splits?

It depends on your body, your starting point and how often you train — we don't put a deadline on a body, and progress is individual. Range-of-motion measurement is being restored across the network, so progress becomes something you can see rather than guess.

Is stretching safe for beginners?

The method is designed for beginners: classes begin with progressive preparation and build step by step from where your body is today — guided by a trainer, not by copying random videos. One of our founding rules: we never trade a body for a fast result.

Do I need to be flexible to start?

No. Most of our clients start from zero. Flexibility is the result of training, not a requirement for it — the method meets you where you are.

What does stretching give you beyond flexibility?

Regular practice is designed to work on posture, joint range of motion, body control and recovery — and on how at home you feel in your own body. That is why we call it more than a split.

How do I open a TOPSTRETCHING studio?

Through a local partnership with TOPSTRETCHING. We are opening a new chapter of the brand and are selective about the partners we build with — see Partner with us and start a conversation.
