I spend my days at concerts.

advice

I am trying out for the Poms team at my school. Tryouts are on Saturday, March 17th. There are tryout clinics the 14th, 15th, and 16th. Those are just to learn what is expected at tryouts. Anyways, I have to have my right and left splits down for one of the requirements, but it turns out they check your splits on the 14th instead of the actual tryout day, which I wasn't aware of until yesterday. I am extremely close, and I can go all the way down, but my back knee is kind of bent. I want to make the team so bad! Any advice on how to get better at my splits in a short time? I stretch a lot and try to go further every day. Please help!!! Thanks so much! I honestly would love to hear anything at all that you think might help :]

make sure your squaring your hips. i know that helped with mine. my back leg was slighty bent but my hips werent squared, once i learned how to do that the knee problem went away. good luck. and ALWAYS stretch. i stretch for like 3 hours a day. an hour before bed. a half hour before schoo. an hour and a half after school. but good luck. hope i helped (:

yes pushing yur hips forward is sqauring yur hips (:
