    Hey everyone, in today's video I'm going to share with you the best yoga poses to get you into the splits. This is the stretching routine I've been doing once to three times a week to achieve my front splits. It only takes about 15 minutes and has given me great results in about 5 weeks.
    This front splits yoga tutorial will go over poses that deeply stretch the hamstrings, hip flexors, calves and quads so that you can ease your way into the splits gradually over time. I use a lot of props for this so I recommend that you have at least two blocks. I'm also using the wall and some stairs as well as a 9 inch exercise ball.

    If you're looking to increase your lower body flexibility and get your front splits, give this stretching routine a try and let me know how it goes!

In January, I was about 1.5ft from the ground. Now I'm down to only the last like 4 inches. Been stuck tho! Swear she read our minds! Lol. Good Luck friend!

    I love your videos Kassandra! I love doing your 30 day challenges and u helped me get into yoga! I started around November last year and am pleased w my journey thanks to u! I was trying to increase my flexibility for awhile coming from a cheerleading background. For anyone interested in splits I highly recommend working on back flexibility as well! I like these stretches and am incorporating some of them in my routine. Yoga has been so great to help me hit different areas I wasn’t getting before from regular stretches I already knew. I love yoga thanks to you :-) also the meditations. So grateful ❤️

    Thank you for sharing this routine, I always thought I'd never do a split because of my body, so I'm really excited to see if I can achieve it.
    On the first day, it feels hard on the knees to do all in one leg and then the other. I think I prefer to alternate legs on each exercise (if that makes sense).
    Also, I would prefer a video of the routine in real time, as on your usual brilliant yoga videos.
    Thank you again! ❤

    At 68, I have no hope of adding splits to my yoga practice 🤣 but as a 2+ year YT & app subscriber, I'm a devoted follower and I would love to see more of these 'practice sessions' in the mix of your videos. I know I would benefit from learning steps to master a certain level of yoga expertise, not just practice poses repeatedly. Either way, loved this video and I'm a grateful fan!

    Thank you so much for this, Kassandra! I had a goal of getting my splits this year but fell off of it after taking myself a little too far too fast.
    One question I have is about hip squaring. Do we need to keep our hips pretty square for proper split form or does that not really matter?

    • @yogawithkassandra
      @yogawithkassandra  Місяць тому

      That comes with time! As flexibility develops it will be easier and easier to square the hips forward.
