Contortion Control: Stretching the Limits with Dr. Misty Rose Austin
Acrobatic flexibility may be aesthetically advantageous, but instability may put acrobats & pole dancers at risk for injury. In addition to flexibility, safe contortion requires the ability to control the spine & joints dynamically through movement.

Highly recommended for contortionists, aerialists, pole artists, and instructors.
