A good way to stretch for a toe touch would be to sit in the straddle position, and then reach for your toes, the rest your head on your knee, hold it for 20 seconds, then switch your head to you other knee and do the same.

yeah, that's a good techinique, but also-- don't let your knee bend. and i stretch like while watching t.v. or if I'm just being really lazy or something. always stretch every night atleast a half hour, before competition or a game =)

Get all your splits, have a wide straddle, and use ankle weights. Practice whipping your legs up like you would in a toe touch and remember to keep your chest up. If you do this for about 2 weeks, you should have excellent toe touches.(:
When you are doing a toe touch think of two strings pulling your feet two opposite directions... Tips ~ Keep back up Dont snap your head down...Pick a spot in the room before you do your jump! Good Luck!
Of course the obvious answer would be to sit in your middle splits, but there are drills that can be done! try toe touches with weights on your ankles, you will find them much easier when you take the weights off after about 25. You also must make sure your hips are facing forward. Try kicks where your knees are facing up. DO BOTH LEGS! also practice on a trampoline, I HOPE THIS HELPS GOOD LUCK :D
