Even Split-ier Splits: Oversplits Workshop

Who this workshop recording is for:

Learn to (safely!) push your limits in this front split focused workshop where we'll be exploring the fundamentals of *oversplits* to deepen our hip flexibility (and strength). Oversplits are a great next step for folks with flat splits, as well as students who are struggling to close the last couple of inches on their splits.

Suggested Prerequisites:

This workshop is recommended for students who already have a flat front split, or are getting close to a flat split (hips 2” or closer to the ground).

This 60-minute, follow-along workshop covers:

• A thorough warm up to prepare hips for deeper split work

• Active flexibility exercises to strengthen and stretch hip flexors and hamstrings to encourage deeper splits (especially those pesky hip flexors!)

• Proper knee alignment and engagement cues to protect knees and avoid hyperextension when working on oversplits

Suggested props:

• Yoga blocks (at least 2)

• A long strap - it can be stretchy like a Theraband or stiff like a yoga strap. A scarf or even pair of pants can be used as a “strap” if needed
