Flexi La Flem
"A slightly out of shape aerobics troupe, trapped in a time of 80s power ballads, spandex and spray tan. Flexi will roam your event feeling the burn, boom box and mixed tape at hand. An unusual side to this act is that it is all mostly performed in slow motion, which provides a montage like quality of hilariously grotesque imagery."
