Did you ever watch the amazing contortionists from Cirque du Soleil? When I was a little girl I would watch them perform in awe, and I never thought I would ever be able to do anything like them. I thought they were born to be that way. Little did I know that with proper training anything is possible. I started to train in the art of Contortion when I turned 30.
are you trying to gain flexibility but feel stuck, or feel like you have hit a plateau? You can OVERCOME these feelings with proper instruction and technique. Stretching can be intimidating for some people because tightness can create a lot of pain.
The good news is over time as you gain flexibility, stretching starts to make your body feel really good. When I started to train in the art of Contortion I just turned 30 years old. I never expected to really be able to accomplish much because of my age. As many people think, I also thought it was going to be extremely painful and I would have back pain every day from stretching this way. The crazy part is, through my training I learned that if you train the right way it does not cause pain and stiffness.
I think there are many people who think it would be impossible to achieve contortion flexibility later in life, but I know it is possible and I am here to help you!
Love, Light & Aloha!
