Doctors are now saying that flexibility can be as important as other risk factors in determining longevity.

I am DETERMINED not to let myself become inflexible as I get older, and accordingly I have just signed up for one-on-one classes with a young woman - a ballerina actually - that can assist me in this journey.

She is actually on youtube.

Unfortunately, the classes take place in a TINY room, only about 6 feet square, but I am managing. somehow.




The classes are expensive, what with 7 a day, so I am remortgaging my house - obviously I have already run down my RRSP and TFSAs

But heck. health comes first, right?

Not to be confused with the extreme importance of flatulence.
By the way, did you know that Bjorn Borg never stretched before a game?

I practice yoga, mostly vigorous vinyasa either hot or not, three or four days a week.Yes, I'm pretty flexible (I can easily do most of what the woman does in the OP's first video above). But the real revelation of yoga is how much strength and balance it requires and builds. Wanna strong butt, then sit in chair pose for a minute.. Want singing quads, try a high lunge. Namaste.

I have been doing flexibility and mobility classes lately and advice for beginners ? I just recently bought some yoga blocks so I can try some new poses.
