Best Answer

The splits improve your flexibility, allowing you to deliver short-ranged high kicks. It also helps you kick two enemies simultaneously.

However, the most important aspect of gaining flexibility through stretching in the splits is not to kick high, but to extend your reach horizontally at the body level, or to the groin and knee. Also, being able execute head level kicks in practice, makes body level kicks in combat flow with ease, and less restriction on the muscles, therefore allowing them to be faster, and more powerful.

Being able to do the splits means you are very flexible. This is important to avoid injuring yourself when executing even low level kicks. Self-defense means taking care of yourself, not causing yourself injury when trying to defend yourself.
