i know !!! i can't stand even stretching before working out, let alone fold myself like a burrito. Some of the poses I've seen seem unbelievable, like maybe a bone or your spine would slowly snap down, bone piece by piece. What I can't get is this... When im straining to stretch my body, the last thing on my mind is the focus of my breathe, which I know is the most important part  And in the books I see, the instructors face & neck is all red from holding a pose and I wonder what could be so enlightening..  Anyone have any answers ?! None the less, I'm still going to procede  Hang in there Floorfiller. The limberness of the body of a ballerina shall not pass us up

Give me your stories,praises,negative regards, etc. Do you think this is just another Health Fad ? I know each of these means of enlightenment have been around for centuries, but I just wonder If we'll ever hear of Yoga and Pilates 2 years from now...
