A Revolutionary Flexibility Training (2 DVD Set)

I started Tangoflex when I saw the feet stretches in Instagram (VictoriaTangoflex) and in theTangoflex page in Facebook. I have flat feet and could never find stretches that I really like, thatwould help release the tension in my feet and lower leg, and that made my feet feel happy.Those stretches felt amazing on my feet and my toes. I decided to buy the DVD to get deeperinto the Tangoflex Method. As a former swimmer (that was a long time ago..), and a mom of twoI have learned a great deal from Tangoflex. I have gone through the entire program (there are 2DVD’s inside the box). And what I love about it and my recommendations are:- Watch the Introduction that is in the DVD#1. The introduction taught me how to perform thestretches, the technique applied to the stretches and the science of the method. Theintroduction is very clear. The instructor is excellent and her verbal cues are precise and welltimed. Her voice is calm and relaxed and, unlike some stretching/yoga dvds, you can tell sheis speaking from long experience--this is not something she studied a little bit and thendecided to make into a production. As a former Computer Animation teacher I like to payattention first to explanation and perform them after.- The 10 minute Balance routine felt amazing!! It taught me how to evenly distribute the weightof my body to my feet, so I can release muscular tension I accumulate during the day. Itreally taught me how to relax my feet and lower leg muscles to compensate for the lack offoot arch.- The 15 minute Core routine feels amazing and really relaxes my lower back better than anychiropractor. It feels like an amazing massage on my back. I love this routine!- The 50 minute routine (dvd#1) is challenging, however it has a pop-up screen with an easierexercise variation, so it is perfect for beginners as well as more advanced flexible people. Atfirst it seemed hard to me, but it gets easier and easier every time I follow this routine.- Body Alignment: After the 5 minute and 10 minute Balance routine I feel ‘aligned', my backfeels healthier and elongated!- I really like the music. It is calm and makes me forget (for at least a few moments) aboutstressful situations and focus deeply into my body.After doing any of the routines this DVD offers I felt muscles I did not even know I had! At thesame time, it feels like my body needs the stretches now. It needs the stretches andcombinations as they are performed and taught in this method because the stretches are allconnected. In Tangoflex everything has an order and a “flow” from one stretch to the next. Ifeel my posture has improved, my range of motion has increased and I don't spend money indoctors anymore. Now I know what I need to do to feel amazing. This in a way feels like amassage from the inside out! After I finish the routines I feel I am lighter, taller, I feel I am glidinginstead of walking. I highly recommend Tangoflex to anyone who wants to increase theirflexibility, work on their posture, body alignment, balance, releasing back pain, all throughrelaxation and breathing.Tangoflex made me look at my body and learn from my body in a way I did not know I could.

I turned to this program primarily to help loosen up my back. I had been working on body-weight based exercises for a while, and I found one day that I could not turn my head without twisting my entire torso because of how tight my back had become. I decided to add more stretching into my weekly routines, and after reading the reviews for Tangoflex, I thought I'd give it a try.As a little background, I am a 27 year old male teacher with a background in martial arts, though I have been out of practice for a while. I prefer exercising on my own rather than at a gym, so I like it when I come across routines that are explained clearly enough to allow for that. I found that this particular routine is VERY clearly explained, very easy to work with, and very effective! After doing the stretches for just a couple of days, my back had loosened up considerably, and it continues to feel much better to this day. I also found out just how much I had tightened up since I stopped taking martial arts classes several years ago, but that, too, is being worked out through this program.My background does not include any kind of gymnastics or dance training, so I cannot speak to how effective this program would be for someone from those areas. However, as a relative beginner in the world of stretching and as someone who approaches working out more for fun than for competitions or for serious muscle building, I can say that this program has been working incredibly well for me so far. For several of the stretches, I need to use the easier variations that are suggested, but that simply means that I have plenty of room to improve. As with everything else, it will take time to get the results that I want, but the videos are very relaxing and easy to follow, so I don't mind going through them again and again! I would definitely recommend this program to anyone who is looking to increase their flexibility or who would like to augment their existing workout routine with stretching exercises.
