How To Do Gymnastics Splits

A Step-by-Step Guide to Mastering the Center Split for Gymnastics!

Here are step-by-step instructions on how to do a center split for your gymnastics routines. Start with the stretches, and don't get discouraged.

A split is one of those moves that is really easy for some people and much harder for others. But almost anyone can do a split! Even if you’re as tight as can be you’ll still be able to master it if you work hard at your stretching.

A great way to get (or improve) your split is to move through a series of different stretches, from simple to advanced. If you are a beginner, you’ll probably want to master the easier stretches first before moving on to full split stretches.

Be sure to do each stretch on both sides – you’ll want a good split on both your right leg and your left leg in order to be a great gymnast.
