30 Minute Straddle Flexibility Training
Whether your goals are deepening your straddle or to get a perfect straight leg inversion, it is important to practice your straddle flexibility exercises regularly.
You can do the excercises in THIS VIDEO regularly to improve your straddle. If something doesn’t feel good in your body, feel free to modify to work for you! Every body is built differently, and no exercise is a one size fits all. Take what you love and incorporate it into your daily practice.
If you have the time, repeat this sequence going deeper into your body awareness and each movment and stretch! Remember to roll out your hips as well! Make it a daily activity!

Wrapping it up
Remember to be consistent in your practice to really see some serious progress in your straddles. Make the hard parts of circus fun by playing some music and putting your favorite essential oil into the diffuser. Learning to love the warm up
The best way to build up the strength and endurance for a straight leg inversion is to PRACTICE PRACTICE PRACTICE!!! DO THESE EXERCISES REGULARLY with a clear focus. The drills I have given you are focused on gaining more active flexibility, not just passive flexibility, so we do not hurt ourselves in the air. And active flexibility training is very hard work. You might even sweat. lol. Set yourself up for success. Start where you are and progress your drills as you get more flexible and strong. Do your exercises consistently 2-5 times per week, and you will start to see a difference after a few weeks/months. If you don’t see a difference, try working in person with a coach. Come train with me at one of my upcoming programs at Casa Chango Mexico!
I hope to see you soon at one of my Sweet Retreats live aerial intensives at Casa Chango Mexico.
Enjoy the process!
