How many types of contortion?

There are several types of contortion, but they can generally be categorized into three main styles: backbending, leg flexibility, and hand balancing. Backbending focuses on extreme arching of the spine, leg flexibility involves bending and twisting the legs in various positions, and hand balancing emphasizes the ability to support body weight on hands or arms. Each style showcases different skills and techniques, often requiring years of training and practice to master.
