I'm not flexible at all - is Gravity Stretching still for me?

Confidence: Method practice

'My body feels like wood' is, word for word, what a lot of our clients say - and this method was built exactly for you.

No flexibility required to start

The lianas carry your entire weight, so the muscles never have to 'stretch through force' - the body lengthens gently on its own, under its own weight.

Who notices the difference most

It's actually the stiffest bodies that feel the shift most clearly. You don't need to be flexible to start - you start in order to become freer in your body.

General wellness information. Listen to your body: if a pain is sharp or shooting, do not force it - tell your trainer in advance and start even softer.
