Contortion Workshop with Alice

Learn how to safely and control your body into deep movements on October 3. In this workshop, you’ll get a strength-based approach to contortion that builds mobility through active muscle control.

Contortion and flexibility are not just a matter of mobility; they are above all about strength work. Together with Alice, you will learn how to prepare your body specifically for demanding positions and which muscles work together in the process. Instead of letting joints and gravity do the work, you will develop active control over your range of motion.

It’s not about starting as a child or being naturally flexible. It’s about understanding your body. Train smart, and flexibility becomes a skill."

Workshop – Contortion & Conditioning

The workshop is aimed at anyone who wants to learn about and develop contortion or mobility training safely and sustainably. We start together at the hips and work our way through splits and shoulder mobility to various backbending positions.

You will learn how to use your muscles in a targeted way and prepare your body for demanding movements. From Cobra and Bridge to Elbow Bridge and Chinstand, we build various basic positions and connect them with one another.

  • Introduction & Questions: Short introduction, plus we discuss individual goals and any existing issues.
  • General Warm-up: Full-body warm-up in preparation for the following movements.
  • Legs & Splits: Build splits properly and prepare the hips specifically for backbending.
  • Upper Body & Shoulders: Targeted preparation of the upper body and shoulders.
  • Basic Contortion Shapes: Learn and technically build Cobra, Bridge, Elbow Bridge and Chinstand.
  • Conditioning:Connect the positions learned and prepare the back specifically for strain.
  • Exploration & Q&A: Depending on level and interest, we will try more advanced variations, for example handstand contortion, deeper chinstands, and various bridge and elbow bridge variations
