Like Danielle, I’m not as flexible as I used to be and not as flexible as I am in my mind. I was a professional dancer for a lot of years and it’s hard not to think of my body in those terms. Time to add a little more stretching to the routine.
If three of us do it does that make an official theme?

Oh lordy, I sure can't do that.
Also front porch > flexibility any day.

OK, so I must be doing this wrong because I was going to do this for an SP and I had no problem touching my hands to the ground...is there some other secret ingredient? Like is your back supposed to be perfectly straight at the same time or something?

Hmmmm. I've never tried dancing before, but I've been pretty flexible all my life - I think I've got my YIP idea for tomorrow!

I'll keep my front porch, thankyouverymuch.
It's easier for some people than others. Long torso/shorter legs helps, as does regular old natural flexibility.

@aswim -- well i'm short torso'd long legged so i'll have to cut myself some slack.

Some of us are still trying to convince ourselves that flexibility > front porch

Ha! Love the term "front porch." Sadly, I have neither the front porch, nor the flexibility, but I'm going to start trying those stretches Danielle suggested.

yeah this is definitely more than I can do. I am so not flexible. and teekers is a schmoo.

I couldn't even do this when I was ten!

hmm...this looks really flexible to me! and there definitely are moments when i wish for less of a front porch and more flexibility.
