Hey guys! It's me, Skylar. I'm going to teach you. Yes you! How to get your middle splits. So, grab your water, get your mat and let's get started. And put your feet in a butterfly position. You're going to stretch your arms forward. And remember, stretching here is just as effective as stretching all the way down. You're going to hold this for 30 seconds. The next thing you're going to do is you're going to put your right leg out on the diagonal. And you're going to bend your left knee and bring it all the way in towards you. Then you're going to stretch your left arm and stretch it all the way over. The goal is for you to try and touch your right toe. Hold this stretch for 15 seconds. Okay, now it's time to switch your legs. This time we're going to have you left leg out of the diagonal. Bend it right in and all the way in towards you. Lift it right arm and put it all the way over. And try and touch your left toe. Now we're going to do the same thing. Bring your left leg in towards you and you're right leg out of the diagonal. And we're going to reach towards your left. So you're going to put your arms out front of you just like this. Hold this for 15 seconds. Now you're going to switch your legs. Left leg out of the diagonal and bring your right leg in towards you. This is a straddle and what you're going to do is the pancake stretch. Your goal is to reach all the way down here. But remember, each time you do it, you're going to get better and better. So don't think that you have to go all the way down on the first try. It takes progress. You're going to hold this for 30 seconds. You're almost there and you're doing a great job. The next thing you're going to do is you're going to put your feet in a wrong position just like this. Your goal is to try to get all the way down and go on your elbows. And as you keep holding the stretch, you're going to get lower and lower. This is what I do post-short one like. And if you're really advanced, you can try to put your feet together like this and try to lower your toes all the way to the floor. Hold this for 15 seconds. I know. It is a very intense stretch and hold it wherever you need to. Now you're on the last step. So what you're going to do is you're going to go on your hand just like this. And you're going to put your feet wide and hip with the car and you're going to stretch your feet down towards the floor. Hold each car in place for about five seconds. So let's say I started right here. So what I'm going to do is I'm going to hold it for five seconds. Five, four, three, two, one. Then I'm going to stretch my feet out a little bit wider. Five, four, three, two, one. You're almost there because you're close to ground. Put your elbows on the floor. Stretch your feet out a little bit wider and hold for five, four, three, two, one. You're almost to the ground. Keep going. And if it hurts too much, please come out of the coach. And you're going to go lower and lower and lower until finally you're in your middle splits. Remember, your feet should not be back here. This is not a middle split. Make sure your legs are in line with your head. Put your arms out in the tee and you have your middle splits. And if you made it to this part of the video, congratulations. If this video gets to 100 likes, I will do a ball dance tutorial. Thank you guys so much for watching this video. I really hope you enjoyed it. Remember that you can do this and any of these stretches are too hard for you. Come out of the pose whenever you need to. Feel free to hold the poses longer than I suggested. Work at your own level and don't compare yourself to anyone. Be the best you can be. And thank you guys so much for 4,300 subscribers. Bye guys. I'll see you in my next video. Have a wonderful day.
