Location: Northern Ontario		My colt is pretty broke, but I find he is a bit stiff through his rib cage so I have been flexing him through the ribcage. He is pretty on point for everything else and moves his shoulders and hips beautifully. Any good drills or tips to help with flexing the ribcage besides corcles?

Figure 8s and squares are what I would work. When you turn the corners, ask for his ribs. On the straight, straighten him back out.
