I appreciate how you present to people like me who are very FAR from getting there (not just the last couple of inches)

[letsmadi]

I can't thank you enough for this video. I've struggled with hip flexibility all my life and this lizard circles opened them like MAGIC! I'll do them before every class now, thank you thank you thank you! 💕

I was just 1 inch far from my split and I had been trying to do a full split from almost a month without bending my knees and it helped a lot I finally did a perfect split thank you!

[chrissime]

You are a real real good teacher!
I'm doing gymnastics with 7-9 y.o. girls for 10 years by now.. I can say you inspired my training preparation and I'm in process also progress for presenting mobilization terms to them. Thank you very much.

[brookegallegos]

These are amazing stretches that really opened up my hips. Could you do a video that shows how to improve a middle split leap, tilt jump, grand jete, and calypso? Thanks!

She is a great dance teacher + she teaches us for free

[ariunichinka]

Thank you very much! I've been trying to get my splits, and stretching about a six months now.
Didn't know why it was taking long time, but those exercises immediately showed a result! Helpful! 🙂👍

Your voice assures me that everything's going to be okay in life 👍

Saving this to watch with my daughter she’s trying so hard to get her splits.

Artist here. Had Lyme disease 20+ years, reversing hip atrophy. These stretches are like cheat codes. Took my breath away and got light headed but already feeling amazing just from doing this one time. I was trying Jujimufu's (look him up, he's a 240+lb acrobat) chair split routine, and have been looking for ways to make my hips looser. This was exactly what I was looking for. Tight hips are my worst enemy

[MiadeHaan]

These are awesome thank you!! I feel so much more flexible in my stretching positions after this❤️❤️ would love to see some more of these

[ultraviolet]

Thank you so much! I feel more flexible and also I’m not a very flexible person and never was. I’m able to go a bit more down to my splits but not quite there. I’ll continue to do this every day I hope I’ll get my splits soon!

I'm a dancer with scoliosis (wich means my spine is curved) I new it made things more difficult but I never thought about it affecting my spilt.

[ejgreen]

This is a great video. The advice to relax my muscles has given me SIGNIFICANT improvements. Thanks!

[jackspradlin]

Awesome video !!! I am a fanatical tennis player, probably have hip impingement not severe yet, but I definitely have one hip less flexible. I saw your video as I googled the splits, knowing if I could do the splits my internal hip rotation has to be good as well as low back and other core muscles. Great exercises to help me get there !

[tharushaslayy]

I feel a lot flexible after doing this
Thank you so much!

[lenoraoffical]

Omg! her voice😊 is so beautiful🥰 and I love her acent❣❣...I wanna archive my splits 🥺 really bad to become that ballet dancer I wanna be🙂

[ladiversiondenicolemarie]

This is a lot of patience. I was a gymnast when I was 6 years old and I lost my flexibility. So I’m going to try this

[giulianademedici]

[reneeren-patterson]
