KINTORTION
By Anya Shevelyuk
TRAINING METHOD
Kintortion is an educational training method developed by Anya Shevelyuk (aka Bendy Anya) that combines the science of kinesiology with the discipline of contortion, and elements of ballet, pilates, gymnastics, yoga, resistance training and pre-hab exercises.
The specific techniques of Kintortion use isolated exercises to build strength and control for a large range of motion that can potentially create dramatic movements. These exercises were developed through trial and error testing methods to prevent injury and extend training longevity.
Kintortion teaches the basics of anatomy and physiology to help individuals understand the science behind the movements to improve endurance, strengthen muscles and stabilize joints in order to increase range of motion by way of isolated active-flexibility exercises with potential towards developing contortion level skills.
This unique training method also heavily focuses on recognizing and monitoring early signs of abnormal nerve and muscular sensations that could potentially cause pain, loss of function, or increase your risk of injury.
TRAINING ONLINE
Schedule a private session at a time convenient to you. There are no prerequisites to start training. Begin by making a list of goals you want to work toward. These may be general such as increasing range of motion, improving strength, endurance and control to more specific goals such as poses and transitions for sequencing. Be prepared to feel stronger and move better while gaining a deeper understanding of kinesiology.

HOMEWORK PROGRAM
This program is designed for students with a strict schedule or budget. You should expect to learn a variety of sequential exercises through visual instructional videos to build upon your personal skill set, and expand your knowledge of anatomy and physiology for flexibility training.
At the beginning of each program cycle you will receive a personalized flexibility training routine with 8-10 exercises. Each program is structured around your current abilities with your goals in mind. All submissions must be sent via email with links to your homework videos for feedback.
Long-term training (several consecutive programs) are available and encouraged for steady improvement geared toward life-long fitness goals.
