Flexible Legwork

Lisa Lottie is a busker based out of Britain and Australia, and a link to her Facebook page can be found here. She specializes in tricks with hula hoops and body contortion, and watching her at work bantering with the crowd was a lot of fun.

  6. Body contortion is something. Hubby and I like to watch America's Got Talent along with Judges. Howard, Howie and of course Nick as the Ambassador introducing the contestants.

    They had this year about two Contortions. Those bodies can twist like a pretzel. ,
