This other short video is the same TV show of a little italian contortion girl beeing stretching by two funny clowns. Very funny and interesting act, but the video quelity is not too good.
The backbend is very useful to most of gymnastic moves and exercices. Here is a little flexibility girl doing a simple warm up using a little weight in her hands. This helps forcing the backs and stretchs the abdominal muscles.
The best way to get exerciting your flexibility is with a partner help. This video is a good sample this. Two girls are warming up before a gymnastic train. One girl is forcing bouth the legs of her partner while she is relaxing.
The video is a TV one, taken in 1994 at the "Euro Festival Junger Artisten" in Wiesbaden (Germany). The blond girl is Violetta (12 years old), and the vietnamese girl is Thuy Linh (10 years old). Gerd Rasquin is a gymnastic and contortion trainer and his beautiful little girls are taking lots of success around the world. Take a look at this fragment video.
One of first cool elements we lern into gymnastic is the flick-flack (or hand spring). The girls mainly must to learn this back bending to get more safely in the beem modality.
