You are so amazing. I'm from Brazil and today I've done a few things that I learned in your chanel with my dance partner and he loved it!!! Thanks a lot for all, keep doing this job cause you inspire people to be better. P.S: I love the way you speak.
Ana Lautert
Ana Lautert Yes I agree also
You can use a tennis ball or lacrosse ball but it will take long to roll muscles out because it is smaller! 😁
@@YourMom-ut2tf true thanks 😁
I literally used a water bottle
Don't give up, that is the key. I am 30 years old and I trained for more or less 3 YEARS to be able to do the splits. Now I got it. At a certain moment I thought I wouldn't be able to do the splits because I'm an adult (and old to do that haha), but I didn't give up. Trust yourself and practice a lot. You can!
YES that’s right Don’t Give Up!!!
👏👏
So I need 3 years? :'( How often did you pratice? I think the same, but now I want to believe and I'm training to get there. Congrats
Im 16 so would i have to wait for 3 years or would it be alot less considering my age?
exactly this guy's 55 years of age kzhead.info/sun/lLSMhKufq5Z8fp8/bejne.html
I am an 18 year old male that just started ballet (I know, very late) but I absolutely love it and flexibility is something I struggle with so this is very helpful!!
Same, starting at 18 as well and...female😂😭Good luck to you, though!!
Me too! But I’m also a female😊 But I really believe that if you apply yourself and you are serious about improving you’ll see the results and yes it’s a process but no doubt you’ll be flexible !
Yea! I'm 19 and I'm really happy to see that I'm not alone to try being more flexible!!
Sarah Bérubé omg....I'm also 19 and just started dance 2 months ago
I'm a 14 year old male and I was worried that I started to late. The biggest thing is to stretch 5 days a week AT LEAST. Also, remember not to sit on your feet or lay/sit around for more than an hour at a time. It's a constant battle my friend
Foam Roller Water (yes, drink it) Strength and resistance training/running (yes I do those) Grande *rotators/turn out Patience, repetition, dedication
The look my fiance just gave me at "drink water" 😂😂😂 he's always yelling at me to drink more bah hahaha. You got me in trouble!!!
Lol 😂
Lol 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂🤣😅😆😎😀😂🤣
lmfao. saaaaame! xDD

うえたみるか Me: *”my mind”*
Better than vodka
I'm actually almost to the floor, I am SO close! Way closer than I was a few weeks ago. However, stretching does not help me😅Stretches actually makes it worse for me, but I still do it to prevent injuries
Stretches mKe it worse?
@Brigit Cattuin they are probably a dancer. doing dance movements also builds flexibility.
Then how did you make a progress if you didn't do the stretches?
Do you mean static stretching? Because not stretching at all would leave you at zero progress.
Hi armyy
I want to add something very important that led me to an injury, because i didnt know it. When stretching, dont let your knee-joint to be pressured - you can stretch knee tendon, and legament, that fixes your knee, and it leds to a lot of problems in future and is very painful. To prevent this, slightly bend your knees when doing excercises, to stretch muscles and legament that you need to. You will be safe!
Ah shit, I was wondering why my knees hurt! :( Good that I know why now, thanks♡
thnx dear♥️
Ohhh, that's why my tendons were clicking weird, good to know! I didn't know how to fix it, so I just stopped doing that stretch
Just wanted to say thank you. I am an x broadway dancer of 30 yrs with a double hip replacement but still teaching and always looking for new, healthy ways to keep dancing and pass it on to the next generation of performers. Your positive, informative and fun. As well as a brilliant dancer! It’s lovely to see. Thanks again
I'd love to see a flexibility workout routine!
Gosh, now I get everything! You'll see: for a while I quit strength training for (i thought) gaining flexibility, so, after a time I was able to do the oversplits but weeks later, I got injured! And I was like WTF?! I warmed up! But now I know... I had weak muscles... hahaha. Now I'm returning to my stretches and at the same time, i have my strength training 😘. I see progress!!! Thank you for explaining! Xxx
I danced professionally from 1984 - 1993. I WISH I had seen this tip back then!. I began to have difficulty in my splits, and looking back, the director of the ballet company NEVER mentioned muscle tightness in certain groups as a probable reason. Arrggghhh, I tortured myself to get deep into my splits the last 3 years I danced. Your tip would have alleviated my suffering. LOVE your videos!!!.
Great encouraging advice! Love your channel and this video of course. ❤️ •Patience •Dedication •Repetition
I have one question. Is it smart to roll out your muscles with a foam roller after it before your stretching routine?
Ur way of speaking is very good to hear .. enthusiastic girl
Super helpful, thank you so much! I was 8 inches away from my middle splits a while back. But after watching this video and your other ones I’m now down to 2 inches! Thankyou so much!😘💕
Is there anything i can use instead of a foam roller because my parents wont let me buy one😮
tennis ball or something xx
Hard plastic bottle? Why won't they let you?
Maybe a roller lol the one that you roll your flour dough with and have someone roll your legs That’s the only downfall. You need someone to do it for you lol i have my sister do it since I didn’t wanna waste money lol and it’s like a good massage too! Lol
basketball or another hard bigger ball works as well
wet and freeze a roll of paper towel, then work fast
What a blessing you are. Thank you. This helps, so much. I have my splits but not middle yet. Working towards it
You're absolutely warm and welcoming to listen to. Thank you for the tips and information!! ✨
I really like the way you explained everything .
I just found your channel and omg... tysm! I can finally relate to someone and understand what they're saying when it comes to dance, I really appreciate you! Definitely gonna tell everyone I know about your channel, you just gained a new sub!
Thank you soooooooooooooo much auti you have helped me to feel happy and detonation to what I do. I only started ballet about to months ago and getting pre Pointe shoes I've been working 5 hours a day and you have been a great inspiration to me thank you soooooooo much your the best!!!:)
Omg it worked so well the stretching thank you so much!
Wow😍this is such a wonderfully made video, you have the most adorable personality and I found everything you said to be helpful in where I'm at😊 and some of your pearls of wisdom apply even in my other endeavors, thank you! You're an inspiration!😙
I have been working on getting my splits down for over a year now. I made a goal to stretch daily, but the past few months has been very difficult. I’ve lacked the motivation to keep trying, but at the same time I really want to get my splits down. I am so close, but am not making any progress. I am not a dancer, but I would like to start classes because I find it very fun. I found this video very helpful, and I’ll continue to watch your channel because I really like what I’ve seen so far :)
I was doing only stretches n stopped seeing results so recently i started resistance training n I was amazed to see how fast i got more flexible i did not knw that its cuz of resistance training until this video thnxxx i have subscribed❤u
My daughters dance at a local studio and they’re wanting to try out for the competition team. I’ve been playing your videos at home and practicing with them and I really love how you go about everything step by stop. I can’t wait to see how much better they get. Thank you for sharing your talent via KZhead!
Miss Auti, I had a dream last night that I had my middle and front splits, and I felt so happy and peaceful, I just sat there in a wide straddle, lying forward between my legs. Now I'm more determined to get my splits. Thank you for these videos. They're going to be my ticket to becoming a semi-self-taught dancer
And plus your voice is so calming and encouraging
Thank you for your awesome instruction. Your personality is a joy.
You gave us tips that no one else has ever given us. Love you and your style of filming and just your whole aura ❤️
Just found out about your channel just yesterday...and im already a fan...i love your tutorials
You really made an honest vedio. Loved that. Keep going cutie pie❤
Omg I love you! I love the noodle analogy.... don’t ever feel like you say it too much! Sometimes saying things consistently helps people understand! Just tuned into your channel and I think your amazing, can’t wait to see your upcoming videos! ~ DeeDeeDeVyne ~
I'm 18, i know it's never too late. Thank you for the encouragement. ❤ love from the Philippines.
I just got my front splits on both sides at age 41. Yup it's never too late.
i am a fan of you i love the way you teach explain every thing
Thank you! Excited to get started :)
Started a couple months ago and this is really helpful. Going to buy a foam roller and try this. Love your personality.
Hi Auti...!! Your doing extremely amazing Job... keep sharing the tips because it’s very important for people who is suffering with small injuries before becoming worse... Thank you Auti..!!!!
I luv your channel it inspires me to not give up and just carry on
"Drink more water!" Water and milk are all I drink lol Edit: Just want to mention I was actually chugging water when you did that slurping thing and I nearly died laughing.
I LOVE your channel! TYSM FOR THE ❤️. Edit: sorry I was acting so crazy I never got a ❤️from someone 😂
Hey Auti. I'm a strength guy. Into Alan Thrall, Athlean X, Jeff Nippard, etc. But I want to get my splits. I like your tutorials. You have a fun personality too. It's refreshing. Appreciated the theory you go into here. Nice use of analogies, play dough, pasta. Clever. Subscribed to your channel. Keep up the great work. Keep putting out the good energy.
Really loving your videos! Great explanation!
you are good at explaining !!!!!!!!!!!!
That B flat at 0:33 was very accurate. Lol
Great tips! I am hyper mobile (connective tissue disorder) and my physio is always talking about strengthening and lengthening my muscles! I have super tight hamstrings even though I’m hyper mobile in my joints
You are so inspirational! ❤️ Can't wait to take your tips of flexibility and dancing and apply them to my dance competitions. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge with all of us ❤️🦊
I just subscribed! I love your channel 💖 I’m watching all of your old videos! 😀
Hi, im a 15 year old, and I FINALLY got my right split down. Flexibility is something that I’ve been struggling to get, because I have played football from the age of 6 to the age of 14. Lately I’ve been focusing on getting my last split down and your videos has helped me loads! Keep posting videos because you are truly amazing❤️
Wow thank you can't wait to try this today!
Super helpful video! Thank you for explaining everything very clearly.
I love your personality. Thank you for this vid!
could you maybe make a (tips and tricks) tutorial for arabesque beginners? I have a problem with this. You're awesome! 😭😭💕
You don’t know how helpful this was!! Thanks so much!
This soooo helpful
I love your vibe and your examples ❤️
Omg I love your sweater
Omg I’ve been wanting vid about flexibility 💜love it💜
Great video Auti
MissAuti you are a blessing from the lord! You help me every day with so much! From dancing to flexibility! You are so kind and beautiful! Keep it up girl! (btw, you deserve so much more subs and views.)
I’m a stripper and also returned to ballet late in life and your channel has been so helpful thank you!!
Wait--ur a stripper? Or uhm a pole dancer? Or a literal STRIPPER?
Lol weird flex but OK not gonna judge u gotta do what u gotta do to survive ;)
John Dripper maybe she does it Cos she loves it not just because she HAS to do it to survive Just saying
The dumb ass comments on this ffs I didn’t even see it as anything to flinch at ..
@@johndripper actually its not a flex, its just a statement. its my job that requires dancing and skill and ballet helps me to be better at that.
So helpful! Thank you so much for this!!!
Thank you for this 💛
This is great and so helpful. I took massage therapy for a while....didn’t work out...but I learned which points of my body need the most love and you made a lot of it clearer. I’m going back to dance after taking a lot of time off...and I’m so out of shape. 😂 Hopefully your tips help!
This was really helpful thank you❤❤❤
Great videooo I loved it!!! thank you for sharing your secrets AND good mood! Have a wonderful dayyy !
Thank you for this info! Lots of good stuff here.
I love how fun you are😂❤
I used to do ballet in Cuba when I was younger. They are very strict. You can not do ballet overthere if you have extra pounds and don’t qualify. Trainings are very effective. The 3 main things we did to learn to split were, butterfly stretching, front to back leg swings( hand in the wall or post and do many repetitions on one side then switch and do the other side) and sitting in the floor opening legs as wide as possible and reaching the toes by holding the stretch. All that done every time repeatedly. 👌🏽
u helped me sooooo much thx
Hi Auti, Thanks for your video that I love out your videos at your channel !!
I've been into pole dance for 4 years now and it's so great to hear that strength is important for flexibility, thanks for the tips, really, I'm always trying to improve my flexibility and it was really frustrating, thank u 💜💜💜💜
Also, totes buying that foam roller right now. I've been working in an office for over a decade now and my god my legs are TIGHT
🙏😥😪🙏🙏💞🥰❤
This was on my recommended page, so are so many other flexibility vids. Something told me this video was different from all the other "get your splits in less than one month" videos... I was right. This video helped so much!! 😃
I love your Chanel so much this is the best thx ssssss much
Playdough is a good example, thank you :)
Thanks so much for the tips. I'm a cyclist working on super stiff muscles. Ballerina tips to the rescue!! 😅
Awesomeness...very helpful video
Oh yeeessssss I just learned about strength training being good for flexibility a few months ago and I think it’s good that you are telling people because I can do an Ofer split and pull my feet Ofer my head and all kinds of fun stuff but I kept Dislocating my hip so good on you for making sure no one els has to go through that!!!👍👍👍 PS ILOVE YOU SO MUTCH!!!💕💕💕
Thanks for info
Thanks for the advice actually I tapped your video by mistake but it has taught me a lot thanks
Good analogies with the play-dough and spaghetti noodle 😉
Love your explanation on hydration. Pasta baby ! Yes, strength training and resistance training are goin to help with your flexibility. Very informative video.

You are so adorable lol. I've been working on stretching for the past 6 weeks because I really want to be able to do the splits but I'm progressing really slowly. Hopefully these tips will help!

@@daisydunn5515 cool
Started in January and already got them down! But I want to get more flexible! ;)
You are so cute 😍 thank you so much for the help 😊
I like this video. You sold me on water. I hate it but, I've noticed myself I get sick more when I don't drink enough water. I still hate running but, strength training is definitely good. I do the foam roll with tennis balls b/c I have actual points that need the pressure. Can you talk a bit more about dancing/exercising EVERY DAY and when do you get stronger and when is it harmful? How do muscles recuperate when being used every day? Also, no one is perfect no matter how good they are. How do you deal with perfectionism?
It so amazing
That's absolutely amazing and very well explained Auti! I have just joined your channel as I am about to try out total beginner ballet session, I hope I can do it 😊
@@ti-and-me 😊
Thanks so much miss auti... I've been having tension in my hamstrings
Thanks
I love how you point out that running doesn't affect you being a dancer 😂😂 because I'm a runner and a dancer at the same time Haha
thanks love i workout 5 days a week and i have my left and right but center is challenging me
Hey Auti in this video you sid that a foam roller is good for the legs and that one you used was flat but round but can i use a roller that have a patterns instead (PS i love your videos you a amazing dancer ) Love Nathalie from Danmark
You are adorable! Great talk about flexibility! .
Absolutely loving your videos!! id love to collab in some way! xx
OMG ily hi!
