there are a few basic stretches involved to be gain the ability to do the splits. i can only do the front splits and at the moment im working on side splits. here is one everyday stretch for you to do at least twice a day. First, find a ledge that is up to about your waist(a window-sill is what i used!) and hold onto it with your left hand. Then, raise your right foot. Hold on to the arch of your foot coming from the inside leg. Make sure you have a tight hold of your foot! Then pull your leg upward keeping both legs straight. Do this with your left leg and continue to do this until your knee is touching your ear. This might take anywhere between 1-4mths depending on your age and how flexible you are when you first start off. Remember: only do this stretch when warmed up because if you do it when you're cold, you could pull ligaments or tendons in your legs. Do this stretch after a fast walk or if its raining, jog on the spot! Why spend money on stretching machines when you can easily use your muscles! I hope this information will help you to be able to do the splits! Im always happy to help!

How do you get right splits down in a few days I am almost there but I need them down for the lead dance role.?

I got my right splits by resting my heel on a chair or something elevated and doing my splits on that (like over splits)... but if you want to get them quicker... I also lay down on my back and pulled my right leg towards my body. Or you can do it the old fashioned way and just hold your splits there for a few minutes ;)
