Roxanne Salas is the creator of Stretch Wellness programs. Her mission is to further educate others on her stretch protocol techniques. Originally from Curacao, in the beautiful Dutch Antilles, Roxanne is a woman with a mission.
​
As a wellness professional for more than 25-years, she has worked as an educator, trainer and wellness practitioner with many top companies and individuals.
​
These include executives from some of the world’s leading corporations such as Motorola, Citrix, Levi Strauss, Wayne Huizenga Holdings, Orange Theory, Dr George C of the Miami Dolphins, patrons of some of South Florida's most prestigious spas such as Trump’s Mar-A-Lago, Williams Island Spa, Doral Saturnia Spa, Ritz Carlton Spa plus cruise lines. She has presented Stretch Wellness workshops for universities, hospitals, civic groups and communities.
Her outreach work has allowed her to give freely her passion to the most deserving in the community by volunteering her healing knowledge to many causes.
​
These include the New York Jet Blue Care team, Hospice Fort Lauderdale Caregivers and The Christine E. Lynn College School of Nursing in Boca Raton Florida. Her Stretch Wellness workshops have proven to be an invaluable asset to therapists, students and caregivers.
She has been featured in Entrepreneur Magazine, South Florida Business Journal, Dock Walk (For Super Yacht captains) plus the Sun Sentinel. She has made appearances on TV and radio programs in several international markets, primarily due to her fluency in Spanish, Dutch and English.
Her journey has not always been an easy one, as at one time she herself was faced with a life-threatening condition. She survived and this further inspired her to pass on her knowledge and experience as a teacher, to help others overcome their physical challenges through her stretching techniques.
Roxanne is Certified by the College of Sports Medicine as a fitness instructor: in 1998 she then became a Yoga Therapist, specializing in techniques for those with special needs, when this was just a glimmer on the wellness horizon.
​
As an accomplished personal trainer for more than 25-years, she envisioned the need for Stretching through Yoga movements by adapting and merging Eastern methodologies with Western science. She foresaw the need for assisted stretching sessions for those that have conditions that needed to be addressed outside the classroom.
​
Roxanne Salas educates Yoga Teachers in anatomy and physiology to enable them to become Yoga therapists and therefore allow them to work with those with special needs through the faculty of Yoga for Youth Inc., a Florida State Corporation that certifies Yoga teachers. She is registered with Yoga Alliance, completing their training at a registered Yoga school.
Stretch Wellness has evolved over the last seven years as an assisted, active, stretch protocol, using basic assisted stretch positions.
​
She is available for personalized sessions bringing her own Stretch Wellness Studio to you, in Fort Lauderdale, Florida.
​
Roxanne loves working with clients from all walks of life, all of whom share the common goal of improving their range of motion and flexibility.
