if you have the flexablity and trust your self with out a trianer then go for it but just dont gey hurt

Hon...MOST actual contortionists have a genetic ...I don't want to say 'defect' because it isn't...it's more like a genetic predisposition (hyperelasticity)...that allows them to bend and fold like they do. It isn't just a matter of stretching the right way. It takes YEARS of hard training and practice, and without proper guidance you could really harm yourself, not to mention that there probably aren't many contortionist trainers out there for you mom to hook you up with, even if she wanted to.

When you have the answer you need and have developed your skills come see me I have a job for you if you're 18+

Don't do this alone. Look into acro or rhtyhmic classes in your area. Even classes like yoga or callanetics will help with the flexibility and lean muscle development
