Contortion Improvement

[numberonehorsegirl]

hate the music



[Celx]

@numberonehorsegirl Me too, sorry for ruining the video for you.

[IFoundMyWings]

Hey, I'm a member of a local circus right now and I would LOVE to improve my flexibility. Right now, I can get my foot to my head but not both feet at the same time. And I really want to get that so I can move onto chest stands. Any stretching suggestions? It would be GREATLY appreciated! (And yes, I'm willing to devote a lot of time to stretching but I don't want to hurt myself so I want to do the right stretches)

~Meg

[LOVEBIRDABLE678]

how long you been at that ?

[JustBelieve110]

wow?



[alessandra4826]

thats pretty cool! it's obvious you've been stretching a lot. i'm also working on contortion. my back is very naturally flexible, but it needs to get just a little farther... hmph. it's really hard to stretch your back without hurting it!

[hehika]

u r really good :D nice video :P

[CrazyDancerGirl]

Hi you've got good back flexibility! if you got the time can you give me any tips? maybe check out some of my videos?

Thanks!

[elizaaajane]

This video was great with giving me stretching ideas, thank you!

One question, roughly, how long do you spend on contortion a day?

xx

[nvks]

so what now with your amzazing skills? )

[flex8ibility]

u are really good..

[kid4orange]

i like it more when it was really Mad World playing along with the video, but perhaps you've changes it...

[Celx]

@kid4orange I know. But youtube didn't allow me to keep it because I was infringing some copyright rules. So I had to pick a song from youtube's default music. :(

[kid4orange]

@Celx oh, I see. But Gary Jule's song fitted awesome your video :) Why don't you upload the same video with Mad world's song and may be youtube won't make you a problem? :)

[Celx]

@kid4orange I could do it, but I'm just way too lazy. Besides everyone has already commented here and it would be annoying to have two versions of this. Sorry!

[kid4orange]

@Celx okay :) by the way can I message you, to ask you something about contortioning?

[Celx]

@kid4orange yeah no problem.

[dozezroks]

dam no boyfriend? :o

[tomken8dy]

You are very flexible and strong! :)

[LEUAScheer]

please please pleaseeeeee do a video on how u got so flexible!!!!

[dozezroks]

dam your boyfriend must love you!

[Celx]

@dozezroks

Why would he?

[dozezroks]

Well idk but if i had a girl that can do that it'll be awsome. Your AWSOME by the way! :]

[intelligenceisnot]

Sweet contortion video!

Thank you!

Could you turn up the lights a little more next time, shine the light on the front of the performer, so we can see her clearly?

Thank you!

[Celx]

lol alright, I don't have a boyfriend anyway!

[princessiero2]

You are amazing =]

[zestylollipop]

yea, its normal to be in pain, sadly

i realized at some point that by stretching almost everyday, you can minimize the long term pain greatly and improve your flexibility

all you need to do is be careful of your limitations and pace yourself. if you consistently practice, you'll get better. check my channel soon for stretching and contortion videos

[LAZYTARD]

Thankyou. :]

Hey, how do you stop yourself from flipping over when you're trying to do that chest stand thing? The pose at 1:51.

I've been working on it (with pillows below me) and I keep flipping over. D: How do you stop your self from doing so? Cause if it wasn't for pillows, I would of crushed my nose. LOL

[sexxiiravegirl]

is it normal if ur back hurst after streching?? cause ive been streching but it hurts!! can someone help me?

[psdkid17]

umm, hi, what kind of things are you doing? becuase my back would hurt also. befor you go to bed try to bend it in diffrent ways and then agen when you wake up. also whenever you reetch forword press your lower back down.

[sexxiiravegirl]

well ive been trying to do the bridge aswell but then the next day i was in pain but now that i try it doesn't hurt that much so idk

[kaelinjohns]

yes it normal my muscles tend to do that sometimes but if it hurts alot then wait abit

try doing lots of back warm ups before you get into the pose. it takes time your body is not maybey not use of the stretch.

[sexxiiravegirl]

wow i rally admire ur flexibility

how long did it take for you to be this flexible??

and you should really do that tutorial you were talking about!! it would really help all of us who whant to be really flexible!!!

[MeetMyMonster]

Wow Lovely Back, Be Carefull Though How You Get in and Out of The Poses Wuld hate To See You Hurt Yourself. but Wow Great x

[bil876]

wow

i have already commented, but this is my favorite video at the moment, I have started doing this as part of my stretching routine

thanks!

xxx

[joycemarrem]

can you send me a message please give me some tips

[Parkourforlife01]

You're really good, and cute aswell ;):)

[ThatSx0Her]

whats the best strech to get your back to bend more freely??

i've been streching alot but i practice alone and i dont have someone to really p[ush lol

so yeah any suggestions??

[canhapi]

How do you do the chest stand at 2:30? I feel like I should be able to do it but it's not coming naturally!

[morikahjo]

How old are you? How long have you been practicing? Do you plan to do this as your career? Does it still hurt when you do these things?

[Celx]

Let's see..

I'm 16, I've been practicing for a year and a half, I've quit stretching for now so I'm not thinking on this as my career maybe something related to it, and well, I'm not stretching so probably if I try to do all that a stuff, it will probably hurt a little bit.

[morikahjo]

beautiful video!!!

[caoutchoudegr]

that's a really beautiful video !! When is your next ? Kiss

[LG848]

Is it harder for males? If not wot is the best way to bend your back?

[Celx]

It depends on the natural flexibility the person has, I mean there are a lot male contortionists as well as girls who are wonderful. But women tend to have more natural flexibility than man do, so it CAN be (doesn't mean that it is!).

[LG848]

Thanx

[bil876]

I agree with

micevigdad, you have really nice form

I love the song!

:)

[micevigdad]

hei great execution,you have a very beautiful style,congratulation

[captonfantastic]

Hi

great job!!

[ilovecincinnati]

your really good.

i wish i could do that.

[ElikaPeka23]

Very good :-)

How long have you been doing contortion?

[lakings9745]

hey for the first move you did, doesnt that hurt the right side of your back? everytime i do that, my right side of my back has more pressure than my left. i try to keep my hips even but do you have any tips or do you feel it too? thanks!

[love22dancefunsize]

i cant get to a chest stand myself because i have short legs. if i had long super skinny legs i could have no problem!

[Celx]

There's no need to be skinny to do contortion. I am not tall anyways and i have no problem.

I think you should work more on your back flexibility so that you can reach the floor.

[GossipGirlHottie91]

You've got a great talent. Ive got a naturally flexible back so I am recently trying to teach myself contortion, the only problem is my arms arnt strong enough to take my weight so when im in back bend I cant shift my weight from my feet to my arms to lift my feet off the ground. How were you able to shift your weight from your feet to your hands or strengthen your arms?

[StandingBackTuck]

i would like to be able to do that! but i'm a guy sooo i think i'd be made fun of xD

[Celx]

You really shouldn't care about what other people say, just do what you like and have fun!

[freedomybpfvjd]

я парень но без растяжки я чувствую себя инвалидом.поэтому регулярно делаю.делай и ты.

[caoutchoudegr]

i love this kind of videos ! keep on doing it girl !!

[adigurney]

how long did it take you to get to that point

[hector6419]

hermoso video sos muy buena

[greensquareferret]

i think im inlove with you?

[kaylamckaylah]

i tried to do some of those moves and i can.awsome i wanna be a contorionist now!

[CourtneyyReneeX3]

wait did u teach yourself?!

[AerialAure]

How often are you training? And for how long?

[YuhBoiAD]

holy shit... i can barley stretch in the morning none the less do this lol

[PwnToob]

hey do you have to be born a contortionist (with the weird ligaments and muscle bending stuff) or can you learn how to do it and become better and better? mail me pleaseeee

---------

no, you learn how. by the way, as long as you stretch, and dont go too far past limits, (practicing and getting better and better)its not bad from your back or anything at all

[daniqwa]

this song is boring

[Oliisblonde]

i hope you'll soon do a video tutorial, it would be really helpful !

[iwilshooti]

HOW DO U DO THE BACK BEND W/OUT HURTING UR WRISTS AND UR SPINE :p IVE BEN TYRING TO LEARN HOW TO BACK HANDSPRNG AND I NEED TO KNOW UR SECRECTS :3!!

[koreflex]

looks like thats coming along nicely..

i wish i got into contortion when i was younger..looks fun

ps. thanks, i was searching for some motivation to have a stretch session, im motivated now, cheers.

[leopolis123]

so you train solely by yourself? no instructor at all?

[liorit]

how much time you are practice on this ?

[xofallenone13]

wow you are doing friggin awesome! woh... I wanna get there and I saw some things in here that I think will be helpful so thank you very much. <3

[lilgymnastbabi33]

hey do you have to be born a contortionist (with the weird ligaments and muscle bending stuff) or can you learn how to do it and become better and better? mail me pleaseeee

[dove1994]

you can learn, but hypermobile joints help.

[daniqwa]

which leg is more flexible

[greensquareferret]

this video came out really good, good music, talent, nice back ground, good outfit. very impresive thank you for making this video for us.

[peyrin]

Fantastic, continue !

[tavo2020]

Celx, eres simplemente ¡ADOOOOOORAAAABLE! =D Ese chest-stand final es simplemente P-E-R-F-E-C-T-O. Te felicito, eres una motivación. ¡Sigue trabajando duro! Un comentario: cuando hagas un chest-stand con los piés al lado de la cabeza, trata de llevar el peso un poco hacia atrás (el estómago), levantando tu cabeza del suelo, como uno o dos puños de distancia. Esos ólo es posible con un grado de flexibilidad de espalda como el que tú ya tienes, y es más estético.

[lacusclyne00999]

can you make another "improvment video " soon please !!!!!!? lol

[myturbanisderty]

can someone pinch me i think i found my soul mate. hey you never know till you try =)

[stretchdavid]

Very nice viedo! Makes me wish contortion class was already today...

[caglacaglacagla]

All of your videos are great and you are so talented ! Keep sendig videos, you're just..awesome !

[reynaldomonterrey]

kute,very nice.

[subalfie]

Song is called "Mad World". I like the Tears for Fears 80's version better.

[Scourgexsally]

wat is this song called

[Celx]

do me a favor and read the description.

[kittty95]

cool wie lernt man das? wer es weiss schreibt mir bitte danke eure kittichen

[Jessupie]

you can learn it by just practicing all kinds of splits, but also learn how to do bridges and try to get your feet closer to your hands.. try to search for contortion exercises, or contortion übungen( i think thats the word)and you'll be flexi in no time!

[airhoop18]

WOW, you have really improved !!! keep up the great work.

[tinkerbellcupcake]

you are vey talented

[juniper1996]

very good

[2xxaf9]

Wow very good when you make the tutorial just do anything

[xxxchechexx]

at 2:30

[xxxchechexx]

you are amazing i just want to be able to do what you did at the end when you lay down and have you legs over your head and flat on the ground any tips?

[GeorgieLove92]

Ive seen some of your videos before. I'm so impressed. I'm trying to learn how to do this too... You really are amazing =]

[desikimmet]

your so good!! can you help me i want to learn contortion!!! please just message me!

[dlybfttp]

Hahaha, repeat.

[Celx]

lol true, stupid youtube.

[daniqwa]

r u sure because you'd be suprised what anyones body can do. such as when i got my feet n the ground in a chest stand i knew that i will be able to do it again and im sure that you will get used to the breathing. ps what r u talking about you were sitting on your head

[Celx]

yes, i am sure.

What I meant was that it looked like i was, but i was actually not sitting on my head.

[jo3scale]

True, a few months ago when I triplefolded for the first time I could breathe perfectly, I entered it from a pyramid though.

[tinkerbellcupcake]

wat is a pyramid and a triple fold

[daniqwa]

y dont you think you can as long as your but touched to your head then im sure you could do it sooner or later

[daniqwa]

when your in that last position you should try to do a triple fold

[bellie28]

great job !!

you are very flexible =)

very nice 5 stars !!!!

[Icarusangel27]

Woo!! You've improved so much!! :D

[Celx]

thank you, rose! :D

[joyjam95]

Do you get lessons?

[Celx]

yes, 2 times a week.

[joyjam95]

Since how many years/months?

[daniqwa]

that last thing made it look like it hurt you becareful

[Celx]

Don't worry, It didn't hurt at all, and I was very happy to be able to do it.

[dlybfttp]

You're amazing. You and rainb0w inspire me to start in contortion, i have some videos up if you'd like to watch them.

[Celx]

Thank you! :D It's so nice to know we inspire others, I'll go watch your videos now.

[silleee]

really good ..

[brittanybaby21]

that was really good!

[albatrozrj]

very good...

 congratulations backbend

[dlybfttp]

I was wondering if you could help me out. I can not figure out a way to make my upper back more flexible, and I'm DYING to improve my backbends. Any help is MUCHO APPRECIATED. Check out my vid, if you'd like.

[mauricio519]

Eu adorei esta garota linda e flexivel, como eu gostaria de ter voce pra mim, seria meu sonho poder ter uma mulher como você sempre ao meu lado, te amo, escrito por um brasileiro apaixonado por você, beijusssss

[rawberry]

wow!!! you are sooo good. congrats!! :)

[zuzma]

you have such a natural beauty about you, and a georgous body. love the song too, great choice!

[zuzma]

oooh damn, youre really young... oh well, i guess i cant pretend i didnt already think what i did just bc i later saw how old you are

[Celx]

so you ended up being a pedo huh? :O

hahah just kidding!, thanks for the comment, do i really look like 18 or something?

[zuzma]

i definitely thought you were older. you have good muscle tone, so i think thats was make me kind of decide to myself that you were older... too bad. give me a call in a few years :X... hahaha, jk

[amig90]

Kind of inspired me to starts the whole stretching...again. For 100th time.

[nopointinkillingdead]

How long have you been stretching?

[Celx]

since november 2006.

[nopointinkillingdead]

Wow. May I ask how long?

[Celx]

I don't know, maybe an hour, sometimes I try to last 2 hours but I'm already tired.

[flexiblecow2013]

do u train anywhere?

how many days do u do this like in a week? bc i have tried for a few months now to get my cheststand... and it hasnt been working.. if u hav any tips plz share ur excellence with me. thx

[Celx]

excellence? oh my i'm..uh flattered.

well I usually train in my room, it's calm and I don't get distracted by anything (unless my mom calls me for dinner).

I train every other day, so i guess i train 4 or 3 times a week.

what do you mean with 'it hasn't been working''? you are not improving or you are improving but still can't get into a chestand?

[flexiblecow2013]

like i improve in other ways and i stretch my back but when i try to do a cheststand, i cant go all the way down onto my chest...

[sturosey]

you r awsome girl you have come so far i love you moves keep bending backwards....

[Jessupie]

in your tutorial you could write down what you want to say instead of talking if you prefer? about what do you want to make your tutorial?

[Celx]

Good idea.

I was thinking of giving some tips, and speaking about the wrong ways of stretching. Something like that.

[Jessupie]

you definitely should do that because every time i watch some sort of contortion video and you read the comments, you often see that people really stretch wrong and force themselves! its a great idea!:)

[arni0202]

song puts me on the verge of tears every time.... Great flexibility btw

[cierrcakes]

i really need to get my back more flexible any tips or ideas?

[superbatmanfan]

wow...good job!

[Bizquick123]

Im falling so far behind, that was incredible!

[acroboyargentina]

[Celx]

Es mi hermana gemela perdida, la encontre hace unos dias y nos preparamos para hacer un duo juntas :D jaja

[zacvegeta]

WOW ur really flexible u put me to shame i gotta stretch more lol i suck at back arch's an all tht lol

[Flexibleboyy]

[samcontor]

[rainb0wg3mz]

You are so amazing!!! I love the way you got into the cheststand in the middle of the video. And YOU SAT ON YOUR HEAD AT THE END! WOOHOOOOO!!! It makes me sooo happy to see everyones improvement. Someday we can all form our own act haha!

[jo3scale]

Esta buenisimo, tus chestands estan excellentes!

besos

[r0xb0x]

[bugfinder]

Your backbending is excellent! Did you actually touch your head to your butt at the end?
