Packed Up In A Box- Zlata, Queen Of Flexibility
Zlata, the rubber Russian girl, was originally an Rhythmic Gymnastics performer, after persistent efforts, and ultimately become a world-renowned contortionist, known as “the world’s most flexible people.” For many people it can be a struggle just to touch their toes but for this Russian contortionist squeezing and bending her body into a mind-boggling array of shapes just comes naturally. Contortion is an unusual form of physical display which involves the dramatic bending and flexing of the human body. Contortion is often part of acrobatics and circus acts. In general, contortionists have unusual natural flexibility, which is then enhanced through gymnastic training. Zlata said: ‘Doing these poses just feels very natural to me. Sometimes it can get a bit uncomfortable if I have to hold a pose for a long time in photo shoots but I think that’s like anyone who sits down for a long time – their muscles get stiff. ‘I don’t really diet but I have to train very hard to keep my muscles in shape and to be as flexible as possible.’
