I will teach you techniques to increase your flexibility safely and effectively using contortion-based flexibility training, whether your goals are to get a decent bridge and chest stand or you want to learn specific contortion tricks. In general, there will be a focus on active flexibility and injury prevention over passive stretches. You will learn how to engage appropriate muscles in order to enter your full range of motion safely. We will also use blocks, chairs, straps/bands and walls in order to get you deeper into poses, so you will have homework that you can work on at home, as well. The benefit of this type of online format is that we can customize a training plan which you can work on by own without any spotting, and we can change goals and exercises based on your progress.

I will create a training plan for you based on specific goals you have in mind. In each training plan, you will be provided with about 10-12 (sometimes more) exercises with different progressions and modifications together with videos of these exercises and pictures when applicable. There will be two sections: conditioning and specific drills for you to reach the goal you have in mind, including suggestions for frequency and how to implement each plan.

As a contortion coach, I will use contortion-based techniques to train not just passive flexibility but active flexibility at end ranges. Children naturally have bodies with less resistance and baggage than adult bodies. They build flexibility easily and quickly. The earlier a child starts contortion, the easier it is for them to build the skills, flexibility and stability to become a professional contortionist if they choose to. My focus, as such, is to train stability and strength so students are able to hold their end ranges actively and with control, lessening the likelihood of injury and ensuing a long career in their chosen disciplines. The skills and strength learned in contortion are also applicable to other disciplines such as tumbling, cheer, ballet, gymnastics or aerial arts. Having good control over back and leg flexibility will not only help students create beautiful lines, but also control their movement in different disciplines.
