Yoga For Flexibility | Stretch Yoga To Achieve The Splits & Release Tight Hips

[@alienshakti]

oh my, just wanted to share my personal story with everybody and encourage those with thight hips. I have been super inflexible and never thought I would be able to do a split. I am working on this now since 3 months constantly like 3-5 times a week and I made a huge step forward. i am 10cm closer to the ground than in the beginning and there are a couple of cm left. The progress came veeeery slow in the beginning, so stick to it, I am making fast progress now in the 3rd month, my muscles remember to relax in the split and it feels more comfortable staying in the stretch. to everyone: you can do it too!

[@dianeballard7288]

At 67 I have dabbled in yoga for 35 years but never consistently until now during lockdown when I discovered your site. I regret not being consistent through the years as parts of my body are so inflexible now. I can almost do the splits as my hamstrings a flexible, but I can’t cross my legs! So to all you younger people, don’t ever give up on yoga. You’ll regret it like me. X

[@yatrawithSatyam]

You are inspiration for many🙏

[@fabigudi]

so kind of you

[@Wladeneczkka]

Thank you Diane

[@ecotallgirl367]

it's never too late, I'm 45 and could have regrets too but hey we choose to do other things. Life is a learning journey. Enjoy and continue your practice. You can inspire many people with your dedication.

[@catherinenoble6214]

Stay with it. I firmly believe the flexibility will come. I have really seen improvement doing this practice. Positive thoughts your way!

[@davidgodoy4685]

Most intense split stretch class I’ve taken ! Progress seen after only 1 class. Amazing. So painful but her voice soothes u and helps u hold the poses for longer

[@angeldegrato2566]

omygosh! I am 19 and I did my first full split today because of this practice, thank you it was such an achievement!

[@laurawashere]

I’ve done this practise 3 times already and I can’t believe how much progress I’ve made. Thank you so much!!!!

[@selyemperzsa1]

I will try to come back to this as well.

[@chaitaya4789]

I am so excited to try this tomorrow morning even though I have already achieved my side splits by your old video. Love you Juliana.

[@YogaWithBird]

Splits goals! This class was incredible! Thank you ❤️🙏🏼

[@bohobeautiful]

awe! That's so wonderful to hear🙏🏼

[@ShiraUrmath]

One of my favorites for splits hands down. This is pure magic. So much love ang gratitude. Honestly I can't go a day without your videos, streches, workouts or meditations. Amazed by all the uploads recently. Thank you, love and light always.

[@annafitpeach]

Completely agree!

[@Malibu310]

The key is to stay with it ... Juliana, your ways of guiding are so soothing that I have started to incorporate this session as an additional to others everyday, and in doing so, I'm able to push ''gently'' into other asanas with ease. Flexibility takes time but make the effort daily. Focus on within to create a healthier you.

[@nandanakrishnadas3912]

I got both my side splits.....!! So happy..!

[@gearardlefore]

This is the best sequence I have done in all my years to open my hamstrings and hips. God bless!

[@bohobeautiful]

that is so wonderful to hear it served you that way🙏🏼

[@annalise1992]

I’ve been doing this practice everyday, Monday (maybe Sunday can’t remember) through Friday (today) and omgggg I’m almost there for my right split!!! I’m able to bring my knee to my forehead for both legs, nd I was not expecting this progress in just 5 days🫶🏼🫶🏼🫶🏼

[@annalise1992]

Update: I couldn’t do yoga for a week cuz of a big essay project at school that took all my time after school😔 I ended up getting sick and life’s been tough but I’m starting back up again to what it feels like stage 0

[@VishakhaChaudhary-u6f]

​@@annalise1992As long as you don't give up its okay to start again . Its all about starting again and again. You got this.

[@lakeystewart]

I almost had my full splits with this routine after months of frustration and not feeling any improvement. For some reason this sequence really works for me. Thank you so much! :)

[@ClaireEmilia]

Same! I am trying to get my splits for month. It simply doesn't work

[@lakeystewart]

@@ClaireEmilia be patient and you will get there with determination :) I have noticed doing certain stretches in different sequences works great, scene as we all have different muscle fibres and such, keep on it and see what works for you. Good luck! :)

[@melanieturquoise1111]

Hiya, don't know if you need this but remember to contract and activate your muscles in stretches to make sure their not relaxed. x

[@ClaireEmilia]

@@lakeystewart I have been trying for half a year now and have barely made any progress :( I always stretch after my workout (strength or cardio) when my muscles are really warm. It's hard for me and really discouraging tbh

[@lakeystewart]

@@ClaireEmilia I understand. I've revisited this full split over the years because after trying every night for months I became so frustrated I wasn't getting any further release into it. It makes practice unenjoyable and very disheartening at times. It was on the off chance this video seemed to allow more release for my muscles, I know one day you will hit that point to and be glad you didn't give up. Have faith and know your body is still getting something out of your efforts. I'm not in my full split yet and my last effort was not as good as the time I left the message so let's keep trying.. your not alone :)

[@catiacastelluzzo6644]

Step by step I’ll do it, but it’s difficult! Grazie!!

[@sherules5005]

8/2/22 today's yoga was less intense than yesterday. In the half split, I can finally rest my head on my knee 😻yay. I'm a few inches over the ground and can rest my head over the knee still on splits. I feel accomplished. Will keep trying. Thanks Boho Beautiful Yoga ❤️🤳🏿💪🏿🙌🏿😀👍🏿

[@ieatmoreplants]

This hip release was the absolute best! Thank you!

[@Burning0Lilac]

If you're reading this before video, do a warm up first. Things will be easier and reduce chance of injury. I found I couldn't even get into the splits when I tried first, after a warm up it was significantly easier and I could go deeper into the postures.

[@Jjulianna]

Hi! I’ve been doing this practice since the beginning of Covid. I remember reading one of the comments saying how they’d been doing this practice for over 2 years and I thought to myself “wow I don’t know if I’ll stick to this for so long” but here we are, I did it! It’s such a great feeling. Don’t tell yourself off, I remember that at the beginning I couldn’t even do some of the positions and now, although I’m far from being as good as Juliana, I’ve made such a progress and it feels amazing :)

[@uwetrenkner9716]

Such beautiful sunlight on this spot. Congratulations for choosing this spot at that time.

ありがとう 題目が日本語になっていて、嬉しくなりました。 あなたの美しいヨガを日本人に見せてあげたい。 あなたのヨガは素晴らしいです。💖

[@ruvimbopasi6214]

So I started the splits journey on 7 December 2020🤗. Looking forward to come back here on the 7th of March 2021, for a 3 month progress check in💖. All the best to anyone who has started or is already on the splits journey.

[@bouchekinne]

Beautiful Juliana, I follow BB since about 3 years and I will never change channel, ever ! It brings so much beauty in my life 😇. I see that you did a couple videos to achieve the front split but I didn't see much for the middle split. Will you make a new video for the middle split ? I still have trouble with it 😓. thank you 🙏🙏

[@AndThenWeWander]

Sooo grateful for all these new videos! Thank you for always bringing the positivity and light into the world💛💛

[@artscythe]

I just want to say thank you. I've been doing your practices daily for the last six months and they've helped me so much physically and mentally. I can really feel the difference in my peace of mind when I practice with you. Lots of love.

[@BeautifullyChanged]

What a treat to come on this morning and find this video!!

[@juliawolson6122]

This felt so good on my hamstrings and IT bands, I’m gonna have to do it several times a week! Thank you! Namaste 🙏🏼

[@boonneeng3851]

Thanks Juliana.I improve a lot in my flexibility after following your yoga and Pilates practices.I am almost there to reach my full splits.🥰😘

[@ananyasingh0910]

Day 14 of 14-day split challenge. I am so close! Thank you Juliana!❤

[@yvonnemcleod2929]

I was in gymnastics in high school, could do full splits but only on one side. Skip ahead 35 years I've been practicing yoga for 3 years. I can now do a full split on both sides. I just completed this one. Who would have thought I'd be more flexible at 55 than I was at 20❤❤❤

[@selyemperzsa1]

Beautiful practice. I did the practice for the second time, but now all the way through. Thank you for showing how relaxing full splits can be even though I couldn't reach the floor.

[@parmidapa1976]

I have a long way for split .. But it was perfect practice 😇

[@pairameka3182]

I can finally touch the ground on my left front split 😍😍😍😍 thanks Juliana 🫶🏾

[@libreparaser7]

Gracias!! BOHO BEAUTIFUL

[@ajoydev3464]

Love ur channel it inspire me to do something unique rather than our responsibility

[@bohobeautiful]

means so much to us to read that the classes can inspire you that way 🤍

[@ameliemaas6369]

Great video! One of the few that is combining an actual yoga practice with stretching for the split and not just focusing on individual split stretches!

[@makelifesimple5110]

My left sit bone actually touched the ground today as left leg was in front in full split! It didn’t just happen, it happened as I eased in to the forward folding and arch back and repeat. ☺️my hips are very tight and I am inflexible even when I took dance. I am determined to become flexible. My current goals are: full splits, side split, lay belly flat on ground during side split and opening up hips like your “happy baby pose” with knee touching ground. I’ve been following you for a few week now and I really enjoy your yoga practices and work outs! 😊

[@birandcagla]

thank yu for this practice. have a nice day

[@verosoul_yoga]

I have been practicing with you for years and this is my absolute favourite hips stretching yoga! Thank you for your work and your inspiring personality. I closed my day with you and I’m a happier woman than half an hour ago! Thanks again! 🙏🙏🤍

[@selinabradshaw5503]

Well can't believe how stiff and inflexible I have become. Still thoroughly enjoyed the class. I will workout daily and give you an update in a month 🧘‍♀️

[@mina9484]

Oh thank you ! Could you make a video on middle split and backbend please ❤❤❤

[@NirvanaShiv-uf9ob]

Thankyou so much juliana and mark, I send all my love to u guys

[@franzifee5771]

very intense but very needed

[@purnimakumarisah112]

I got split 🤩🤩 thanks boho

[@anicharkviani6461]

I achieved my splits with your videos. Thanks🤩😍

[@davidwhittington4877]

Juliana, this is the single most effective routine to get the splits on both sides. I’ve been doing it most days since you posted and after about a month, I can finally do the splits on my bad side as well as on my good (which I could do before). Sincere thanks for such focus and dedication, you are one in a million.

[@princesse22lio]

I know i'm a little bit late but i really love your stretching routines i would love to see more splits relate video! Thank you again!

[@K_mclaurinv]

Loved it! I'll be practicing this often to finally get my front splits, I'm so close... Could you do a backbend class? That would be so amazing! Thank you for your great content:)

[@Wladeneczkka]

I would also appreciate backbend class :)

[@ashley14anderson]

Done this a few times now and UGHHH magical. If you get into your breath and push yourself, you can feel the progress your hips are making throughout the practice. So many feelings are stored in our hips 😅🥰

[@kuromi_meow8984]

Best I have ever watched. I really love the pace of the whole process and the self appreciation part.

[@karolinamarvanova6848]

This was really intense, loved it. I can feel the release in both my muscles and my emotions. Sending you all the love.

[@yatrawithSatyam]

Done this session. Thanks Boho🙏

[@v.estestve]

Love this class! Thank you

[@pallalakshmi8425]

[@dmtsmokingman]

This means so much to me. I love you.

[@mohammadnikkhou6307]

Hi. Simply thanks for your good program.☺

[@ianimal36]

I'm floating in hot springs after this practice, fully feeling a release in my lumber that I have needed for so long. I began with a 20 min yin yoga for upper body and ended with a short meditation. It has been a beautiful, calm, releasing morning. Thank you for facilitating this for me❤💜🙏💚 my back adjusted itself and I feel it in my brain, spinal compression on our center nervous system is no joke!

[@shreyavyas8978]

This class is about what i want...i'll try this tomorrow...thanks juliana and mark...

[@jaishreegarhyan7264]

This is a great yoga session

[@thomasblaney]

This is a fantastic stretch

[@sebastiaanboonstra7471]

Thank you. This is giving me so much benefit during a very hectic time under lockdown in Kabul, Afghanistan.

[@francescaroversi5999]

If i think back to when I was a gymnast I cannot believe that its taking me so much time to get a full split....but i wont give up :)

[@bohobeautiful]

I can totally relate! After not practicing for a while it feels so hard- but with patience, you'll get there!❤️

[@inma4357]

I'm in the same place! I used to do rithmic gymnastics 15 years ago and now I can barely touch mi big toe hahaha

[@makaila2646]

💚

[@hilalk-b]

I totaly know what you are dealing with, sister. I was doing karate 5 years ago and practiced rhytmic gymnastic for a while. My body was totaly open and elastic back then. It is a little bit disappointing not to be able to move like that times, but while you practice you will get even better.

[@shannonwatkin]

Former ballet dancer. Retired about 5 years ago. Hard to believe I can't do a full split before and I'd never even stretched my IT band before I found Boho Beautiful. Unbelievably tight there.

[@CmoniQa]

I have so much to work on to do a full split (I'm not even close) but I'm not giving up, maybe one day I'll do it! :)

[@martatrela6344]

Does anybody else have a feeling that Juliana simply has abnormally long arms and that's how she can reach so far?? My arms are definitely too short :P Btw, thank you so much, I truly love your workouts and have progressed so much over the last 3 months ♡♡♡

[@fitnesslover1958]

First time doing this video. I'm always excited when I see a video of yours that I have not done. This is such a good stretch to lower body. I know you won't read this anymore because it's an old video. Thank you, anyway!

[@sweetupbaaby1903]

This routine has helped soooo much with sciatica pain and for opening the hips to get into a fuller split. I feel absolutely ethereal afterward. Thank you so much!

[@divineabundance8888]

Love this flow , beautiful. Namaste sending love and light !

[@lielialo5352]

I like this practice so much, thanks 🌸🌸🌸

[@ElenaSuri]

This was an incredible body journey through the struggle and sensations. Love you guys. Namaste 🙏

[@annakaz9849]

Thank you , dear Juliana!❤️

[@petitevoyoute729]

I just finished the 14 days split challenge. Still no split but pretty proud of me! Hopefully I'll have my splits this year

[@shabnamrahimi4042]

Please make one like this for the middle splits

[@JNastasy]

Deep stretch :) thank you Juliana

[@dr.surenderkumar5157]

A tremendous demonstrable explaination....

[@TanveerShawn]

One makes the full split or not, this session perfectly brings relaxation to the lower body, with lot of benefits I suppose.. This is the wonderful yoga practice for those who are fasting in this month. Lots of Love 🙏❤️😇

[@HappyNHolistic]

Tanveer Shawn i was thinking this exact same thing...this is the perfect Yoga practice during short and long term fasts!!!

[@cogwun]

[@marieluftl2377]

I‘m a gymnast and i already have my splits, but this is just another level of stretching. Anyway, really enjoyed doing this (will definitely do it again) and it really helps me stay flexible during quarantine!! Thank u so much for posting! Love it! :)

[@TwilightDusk-1111Official]

very effective. lots of room to grow

[@Jana-io6oq]

I really love your new yoga videos, they have a nice touch of new spirit, playing around with yoga poses. I started following you and your lessons in january this year. when i first tried I wasn't able at all to even touch the floor with my fingertips, i was like half height of my lower leg. now I can touch the floor with nearly my whole hand without even warming up. I suffered from my backpains, thanks to scoliosis, they where chronical, I thought for the rest of my life. but they are gone. thank you so much for being love, inspiration and you.

[@makaila2646]

[@RachelReeveFitness]

This is one of my favorite videos that you do!

[@marazanker9091]

Thank you for your marvelous yoga sessions, your passion and your work . I practice every day with you.

[@bohobeautiful]

thank you so much for practicing with us every single day❤️

[@emmanuelmahumu5070]

Hi ye its so amaging n wounderfull just that my nerves are unflexible coz am so old if not i could have a try. 😞😞😞

[@anniek2409]

I often find that you will demonstrate more advanced variations but seldom show an easier option for those of us who are not even at the "standard" level - would be nice to see options to both level up and down

[@avatarandarmy485]

I have done this for 10 days consistently at night before bed and it works although I don't have the perfect split I was able to get my right leg down yesterday my left is more stiff than than my right but it is 1 inch off the ground and I'm working on my back leg to full extension. Its going to be different for everyone so don't compare yourself to me.💜

[@mvw10]

Juliana! Thank you so much! I've been following you since the very beginning of this channel and you've inspired me to become a teacher. Now that I've been teaching for 9 months, people tell me I'm their favourite teacher, or I've changed their life, etc. I just want to attribute my motivations to you and the way you make me feel. I aspire to be a teacher like you - compassionate, kind but also the most beautiful and flexible yogi I've ever seen. This is basically a love letter to you (and Mark!). Ps a new friend told me he has been doing your yin videos and that you reminded him of me... Biggest compliment ever for me

[@Biggbossgossip18]

First time I ever tried this workout. WOW! It was challenging, but I would have never been able to do this before. My flexibility has improved tremendously by following watching your videos. Thank you for this amazing content!

[@ikrammaamouri5913]

It's feels good to feel the deep stretch in different muscle groups through these exercises and it gets better when u feel the difference and the improvement with daily repetition. Thank u for this creative stretching routine. I hope u'd a routine like this to improve the middle split...
