This second edition of Stretching & Flexibility has new hamstring and hip flexor exercises, but otherwise is the same as the first edition. If you own the first edition, you can bring yourself up to speed by going to our Vimeo on Demand channel (search for Kit Laughlin) and get the Stretching & Flexibility DVD Update for a modest cost. Our Vimeo programs are DRM-free, for your convenience too.
Stretching & Flexibility is one of the best-known books addressing the subject of how to make yourself more flexible, more mobile, and how to move better. It is based around 16 lessons which begin with the simplest spinal movements. All parts and all functions of the body are covered.
Stretching & Flexibility presents over 100 exercises, with detailed instructions and Cues. Each exercise has a minimum of three photographs, and there are many anatomical illustrations, too. Beginner's, Intermediate, and Advanced versions of exercises are shown. There are groups of exercises organised by sport or activity.
If readers are interested in getting in touch with other stretchers, movers, and practitioners, google Stretch Therapy Forums; we have a vibrant community and membership is free.

About the Author
Author Kit Laughlin has been running Posture & Flexibility (now Stretch Therapy) and Strength & Flexibility (now Monkey Gym) courses at the Australian National University for 27 years. He has been ably assisted by all the other teachers too, and the classes have been his practical laboratory for stretch and movement research for all this time, too.
The classes have been taken by tens of thousands of people of all ages and levels of fitness with proven results. Many students have gone on to become teachers themselves.
Kit was awarded a Master of Letters degree by the Science Faculty of the ANU (1992) and was granted an Australian Postgraduate Research Award for PhD research, in which back pain was the main case study.
He is the author of the bestselling Overcome Neck & Back Pain (now in its fourth edition) and the presenter of the acclaimed national and international seminars of the same name.
