About FLX PRO

Helping people move better. Helping you build a business that makes a difference.

FLX PRO exists to help you turn assisted stretching into a valuable skill, a professional service and a new revenue stream.

We combine practical assisted stretch training with the business guidance you need to get started. Whether you want to add stretching to your existing services or build a dedicated assisted stretching business, our aim is to help you move from learning techniques to confidently working with clients.

Built on experience. Designed for real clients.

FLX was founded by Ben Bate, who brings over 20 years of experience in the health and fitness industry and running a successful personal training business.

After seeing the potential of one-to-one assisted stretching, Ben attended several training courses, explored different approaches and began using the techniques with his own clients. He brought together the most valuable elements of that training and his coaching experience to create the FLX system.

Seeing clients move more freely, feel more comfortable and gain confidence in their bodies inspired the next step: teaching other practitioners how to deliver the same care and attention.

The FLX approach

Our system combines static assisted stretching and post-isometric relaxation (PIR) with an emphasis on comfort, relaxation and clear client communication.

Students learn more than where to place their hands. They learn how to position and support clients, control stretch intensity, recognise contraindications and adapt their approach to individual needs.

We believe confident practice comes from understanding both how to perform a technique and why you are using it.

Individual stretches. Complete client experiences.

Our flagship FLX Practitioner PRO Course brings together stretching theory, anatomy and physiology, practical demonstrations, assessment and business development.

You’ll learn individual techniques and how to bring them together into five complete 60-minute stretch experiences:

• Hip & Leg Reset — focused on lower-body flexibility and mobility.

• Spine & Shoulder Reset — focused on the upper body, spine and shoulders.

• Deep Recovery — a relaxation-focused experience for clients looking to unwind.

• Golf Swing Optimiser — focused on the mobility and rotation used in the golf swing.

• Performance Enhancer — designed for active clients looking to support their movement and training.

These sequences give you a clear structure for delivering sessions and explaining your services to clients.

Choose your way to learn

FLX Essentials introduces the 10 essential assisted stretches. It provides a focused starting point for learning individual techniques, without the complete stretch sequences.

FLX Practitioner PRO is our most comprehensive online option. It includes the full training, all five stretch experiences, theory, practical demonstrations, assessments and business resources. It’s our main course for students who want the complete FLX system.

FLX Face-to-Face includes everything in PRO, with the practical training delivered in person for students who prefer hands-on learning and direct feedback.

Learn the skill. Build the business.

Knowing how to stretch someone is only part of becoming a successful practitioner.

Our PRO course also includes business guidance to help you package your services, set your prices, attract enquiries and turn those enquiries into bookings. Alongside the training, you’ll find resources covering marketing, client communication, launch planning and the client journey.

The goal is to give you a clear route from completing your course to offering a professional service people understand and value.
