Flexibility is not "absolutely" required, it is a result of the practice of Yoga. Very often a naturally flexible person will find themselves with long-term joint or ligament problems. She will favor her dexterity at the expense of her muscles. This is why attention will focus on muscle engagement and the position of the joints.
A person who is more rigid or not very flexible (at the moment) will be safer because they will work with an awareness of their limits. Without forcing, but thanks to their breathing and sensations, they will manage to let go and open up. They will be less likely to damage joints in the long term but will have to be patient without comparing to others.
