I’m happy for every tip I can get on good yoga poses for flexibility. I don’t care so much for the strength, more in need of getting more flexible.
Or if someone knows of a good yoga routine for full body flexibility?

To become flexible and keep it you need muscles to do so, otherwise its like a rubberband stretch it and then it goes back. Also you need strenght to keep your body aligned avoiding stiffness and unalignment.
I agree with fakeyogis… You need strength for flexibility. Where are you inflexible? one area specifically or would you like to work on general flexibilty? Because almost all asanas will work to improve flexibilty in at least one area of the body- and mind too!
We all aware of the fact that yoga poses helps in stretching of muscle and if you are looking for the yoga poses that helps in flexibility then you should definitely try this poses Ashtanga Yoga, Bikram Yoga,Yin Yoga and kundalini yoga.

If you're looking for a way to increase your range of motion, start by trying different yoga poses. Try the mountain pose and see how long you can hold that pose. You might also try sitting in lotus position or attempting the splits. Can you get your legs even farther apart than they already are?
