Whether it's Glamour magazine's blogger, Yahoo SHINE or WPIX 11 in NYC, news services are falling in love with fitness this summer. We recently worked alongside of the video series, 10 Minute Solution and it's been such a whirlwind for us, in addition to being a positive experience. Check out the latest press here.

These testimonials just came in from South Tampa Pilates and Avenue Pilates who have recently begun to license our program. Sharing these thoughts with you is an honor and it is with pride that we congratulate the students that partake in Xtend at each of their studios. Cheers to your new bodies...

Hi Andrea,

Everything is going so well-Thank you! This has really put a boost into our "summertime" morale.We are very happy to have Xtend as part of our studio. The Xtend workout is amazing! Bringing Xtend to Avenue Pilates is one of the best decisions I have ever made. The clients love the workout and they are getting fantastic results." Avenue Pilates

Xtend is the most organized, most well thought out program out there for Pilates studio owners. Her video support is amazing! She's so on it, so easy to work with. I knew the system was high quality, but how easy she's made everything is beyond words. Her training manual is so much nicer, being able to go online and log in and throw out questions to other teachers is a bonus. She's going to blow everyone away in the market! South Tampa Pilates.

When you're cool enough to be on Yahoo, you're definitely cool enough

Xtend reserves the bragging rights to a new post today on Yahoo! SHINE; the online destination for women looking the latest information and advice from experts and the community on parenting, health, fashion and so much more. This ultimate online hotspot obviously got the lead that Xtend's Glamour blog post was just too good to be true, they had to blog about their blog. So, in a sense, blogging has it's 100% factoid of being a success story because you never know who's reading it. In that case, what celebs are reading our blog right now??? Do tell. Comment below and don't forget to check us out on Yahoo! SHINE.

Have a fabulous 4th of July-especially to all the Xtend devotees who are rockin' bikinis this weekend.

Hoboken welcomes Xtend with open arms

Andrea Rogers made an impact yet again on the sold-out Xtend crowd at Renaissance Pilates. These devotees are a loyal crowd of women that give their time and devotion to Danielle's haven for enthusiasts. The students learned 'soon to come' new moves and applauded the Xtend founder as she ended the class.

This 'core' group has nothing but amazing things to say about Xtend and it was a beautiful thing to come and see the new bodies that have been sculpted by the program.

Congratulations Renaissance for keeping the pace for Xtend in the NYC area!

A new-age workout for young aspiring dancers

Andrea Rogers gave an all-out stellar Xtend Master Class to several members of Broadway Dance Center tonight from 4:30 to 6pm. The class ranged from teen boys to a young 14 year old aspiring dancer who recently moved to NYC from Florida to pursue a career in dance to many women in their 20's who gave it their best with our new Xtend moves. This was our first opportunity to introduce the class to the open door of dance aficionados that hover the halls and dance their hearts out in this mega capital of stars-and it proved to be a success. Comments made after class include:

“Wow, you need to come here more often to teach,” and

“When are you coming again?”

“How can we get this class at BDC all the time,” and the classic,

“OMG! That was hard. Amazing, but hard.”

If you were in the class or were one of the dancers watching from the window, thank you for your interest and support and keep the good buzz going around BDC- we’d love to come back many times!

Press, press and MORE press

New Orleans Studio, Nola Pilates, heats up the beginning of summer with a hot press story on Xtend. Teachers, if you’re reading this, get excited about the benefits that Xtend can bring to your facility. Women are shaping up and feeling better than they did-even when they were back in college years. How? Xtend is an intense workout; hands down. Women get the ability to have a little bit of cardio mixed in with their Pilates routine, with a touch of dance. The news anchors in New Orleans certainly enjoyed this story. Medical Experts had this to say:

"... Body fat is on the surface and it also is within the muscle. But if you lose muscle fat then you have leaner muscle," said Dr. Kim Edward LeBlanc, the head of Family Medicine at LSU Health Sciences Center. And while there is no science about physically making a muscle longer, Xtend is doing something good for the muscle and entire body.

Wow! If you’re currently an Xtender, are you so excited to go to class today after reading this? And if you’re ready for a possible licensee program, or if you’re currently holding a license, get ready for a hot summer, take advantage of your sample press release from our website and work your magic!

A Mother's Day story that "fits" the mold

It's Mother's day and we've got a spectacular story to share. Laura Hollander, active Xtender and proud mother of an 11 year old and an 8 year old was so cool on this day (May 10, 2009) she was written up her local online news hub. Her recent addictions include Pilates, Xtend and the upcoming launch of a fitness drink. Look out momprenuer's everywhere-Laura's coming to town and she's on top of her game. In her article, she praised Andrea Rogers and her ability to create the Xtend program which is perfect for active women who can take just a few classes a week, stay fabulously fit in shape, launch a business and be a mom of two. She also added the importance of strengthening the mind/body connection-which Xtend certainly delivers.

Happy Mother's Day to mom Xtenders across the U.S. and cheers to Laura on her upcoming energy drink and mom-bility to do it all. For the full story, click here:http://www.sun-sentinel.com/community/news/bocaraton/forum/sfl-flbrfhollander0506brfmay06,0,1451210.story
