When I'm in my yoga class, I spend more time in "child's pose" than any of the other, more complicated positions. Even a simple "downward facing dog" is too much of a, well, stretch. I try not to let the more athletic people in the room get me down, and thankfully, I've never come across anyone quite as bendy as the girls in the video below. I'm pretty sure they would put the instructor to shame, too!
Dressed in delicate pink leotards, these 10 gymnasts are able to move like their bodies are made of rubber rather than flesh and bone. I've seen some incredible routines before, like the little 3-year-old who stopped by Ellen's show with her stunning moves, but I can honestly say I've never seen anything like these little ladies.
As they go through a series of exercises called out by their coach, they lift their legs and contort their torsos into amazing synchronized maneuvers. I can only imagine that the talented girls have been practicing this style of gymnastics for most of their lives, considering how young they still are!
It's seriously mesmerizing to watch them move from one exercise to the next with perfect form and apparent ease. I'm sitting comfortably at my desk and I still feel like I'm gotten a super-stretchy workout by the end of the video! Or at the very least, I'm definitely inspired to try a few more poses during my next yoga class.
Take a look below and be sure to watch all the way to the end to see every impressive moment.
