Hey friends... ❤️ Remember to PLEASE listen to your body and be patient with yourself, increasing flexibility is a unique journey for each of us. Please share your experience, progress, and success stories here in the comments and on instagram with the hashtag #bohobeautiful ! Love and Light to you all!! Oh..... And all information on the challenge can be found here: bohobeautiful.life/splits-challenge/
GO SLOWLY AND CONTROL YOUR BREATHING, WHEN IT HURTS TAKE A DEEP BREATH AND STOP WHEN YOU FEEL YOU HAVE REACHED THE MAXIMUM STRETCH! That is the trick, otherwise you may end up hurting yourself pretty seriously, AND YOU DON'T WANT THAT =) Set gradual goals for yourself, ballet and all the exercises that revolve around it take time. What you do EVERY DAY is what makes the difference, if you overwork you may risk injury or simply give up because you are not giving the body enough time to gradually adapt to such a big change. Hope this helps! Best wishes =)
I am! I’m on day 10 and I think I will be able to reach a full split on my left leg pretty soon. Right leg is still a bit off. Anyone else feeling a bit sore in the muscles just below the glutes?
I am taking this challenge. I am 59 years old and determined to do full splits before I am 60. I have attempted this goal with other videos and I say I am about 7 to 8 inches on both sides. One thing I noticed that I have not been doing correctly is keeping my back straight. I am using yoga blocks now to make sure I am and can already feel a difference. Gonna do it !!!
I’ve done this video for like, at least months like probably a year now and this totally got me my splits. 💯 good luck Edit: I’m not saying it’s gonna take a year it didn’t take me a year. Im back to the video bc I’m just coming back from a knee dislocation. but I’m almost 40 and that was one of my goals for 40.
@@tifstar700 Yay so glad you kept up the commitment and did it and doing it again. I am so close now down to about 3 inches on both sides.. HAHAHA depeds on the day...
All I can say is “WOW!!!” I completed this challenge about 3 weeks ago to work on my tight hamstrings only to realize they were overstretched and my hip flexibility and glutes needed work. I was able to get fairly close to the floor by the 14th day. Since that time, I’ve worked through as many Boho Beautiful hips and flexibility practices to help work on improving my weak areas. Today, I started this challenge again. Lo and behold, I went right down into a full frontal split. I was shocked, surprised and giddy with joy. I haven’t done this since I was 5 years old and I’m 53 and have had various injuries. This was so unexpected and also motivating me to challenge myself even more. THANK YOU SO MUCH, Juliana. I am forever grateful. Much love and light to you!!! P.S. I followed your advice...”Let it go, release what no longer serves you” and “Listen to your body”
I'm so excited!! I'm 47 years old and I've never been able to do the splits in my life. I couldn't get rid of my episodic migraines so I made this splits yoga routine my new year's resolution... I felt I needed something I could achieve with my body because I couldn't fix my head. I've been doing it since 1 January about 4-5 times a week when I didn't have migraines, and when I started I was 12cm off the ground. It took me 2.5 months to get my right side splits. Everybody is different. Consistency is essential. Update (13 April): I've just managed the splits on my left side, so that's taken 3.5 months to get both sides. I hope this helps older non-bendy people get an idea of how long it might take. Note that this wasn't all I was doing. I was doing at least one other yoga routine daily for general fitness when I didn't have a migraine. Thank you Boho Beautiful!
Oh no, hope you are better now. I have had that as a teenager and it was awfull. Just be careful and don't push past your limits. Listen to your body, we are all different and each of us will take different amount of time to achieve this. 😊
I’m going to do the full programme for the 14 days! I desire to be super flexible to further my skills as a competitive swimmer. I want to be completely in control of my body and learn to move in the most efficient way. I also enjoy gymnastics and I’m an avid yogi! Taking on this challenge will be hard but I’m excited and I will update everyone here! DAY 1: Felt pretty good, I’d say I’m about 5 inches away from my right splits and 8 inches away on my left splits. Super excited for tomorrow!
I've been doing this every day for 4 days now and I already see so much improvement! The first 2 days I felt like I was so far off, and my hips were so sore in the morning, but the 3rd day I noticed a very slight improvement, and today I did this twice through and felt like I could get so much deeper into the stretches! I'm still pretty far off from the splits but I'm closer than I was before, thanks for the routine!
I will update every day soooo.. Day1 Hurts!!! Day 2 It still hurts but I've made an improvement Sorry for not updating u guys its been like 3 months I haven't got my splits but I'm confident I will get it at the end of the year every day I stretch and get closer and closer to doing it .keep trying I hope you get yours quicker than mine Everyone has different bodies and some are more flexible than others so don't give up and push past your limits like what I'm doing cause it works
Advice for you: Try this after yoga/workout when you have warmed up, it feels much nicer and easier. Also after the first time i was at 8cm with my better side and about 12cm with my worse side, i have never been so close and really just staying in one position (even tho it doesent feel good) and just breathing gets you so much closer after this routine. And the closer the floor you are, the easier is to push yourself. I know it feel terrible at first but after few times it will be much easier! Stay consistent
100 percent agree with this tip about warming up first. I tried this first thing in the morning and when she started easing down into the splits, I was like-- ok, nope, I am not warm up enough to do this without hurting myself.
I've started 1 week ago and I can do the split on the right side and in the left I'm so close to get there. If You do the exercise in the challenge, you will see result soon! Thank you Boho, form Italy.
I'm 14 years old and I am going to make an update everyday as well. So I've already been doing stretching for splits for about 2 months now so I'm a bit closer to the ground than a person who has started for the first time. Day 1: very painful in my right hamstring. 15 cm above the ground. Will update Tom. Day 2: I had pain in my hamstrings so I did a little less stretching than yesterday. Still no difference. Day 3: I did the stretching. Had a lot of pain so no difference. Day 4: No difference. Day 5: A little bit of difference, maybe a centimetre or two. But I'm not going to give up guys!!! Day 6: skipped because I got lazy. Day 7 (1st week completed): I did stretching, saw no difference in the splits. Day 8: No difference. But I feel a bit more motivated now.🙂 Day 9: My right hamstring was quite sore so instead of sliding into a split, I did a little hamstring stretches. Day 10: skipped because of too much homework. Day 11: Stretching, a little bit of less pain Day 12: skipped again because of laziness Day 13: I pushed and pushed and saw quite a difference.😊 Day 14: skipped because of pain. Day 15: I did less stretching Day 16: Same as day 13, but no difference. Day 17: Skipped Day 18: Skipped Day 19: Lost a centimetre of progress due to skipping 😭 I stretched. Day 20: I got back the lost centimetre...Yes I stretched. I think I need to stretch everyday a little bit instead of falling into the splits after every 2 days) Day 21: stretched a little bit, I skipped sliding into a split though 😅 Day 22: I did the split, and pushed real hard and was 1 centimetre above the ground. Yeahhhh!!!!! Day 23: I stretched and did the split, and this time I pushed hard wayyyyy past my limits (with a lot of pain of course) and was able to touch the ground. But it might take me about 2-3 weeks to do a full split comfortably without pains 😥. But I'm quite happy about it!!! Day 25: I couldn't push that much so I wasn't able to touch the ground. :( Will update tomorrow. Day 26: I think I shouldn't have pushed wayyyyy too hard becuz I lost 1 inch today, I haven't been able to push that much these past 3 days.... Please everyone, don't push that hard like me. Thankfully I didn't get injured. I think I need to be a little more patient. Will update tomorrow. 😥😥😥 Day 27: Skipped as I was exhausted....it was a loooong day...😑 Day 28: I pushed, and pushed and I was very very very close to the ground!! Day 29: I pushed, and pushed, and pushed wayyyyy wayyyyy wayyyyy past my limits and was successful in touching the ground (but very painful). TT omg, these are tears of joy. I am hopeful I will be comfortable in doing the full splits in 2 weeks. Wish me luck guys!! You all haven't even commented since the past 2 weeks. Day 30:
remember it takes of time, and you will not see a difference immediately, but everyday you do it you get a little more flexible. Also the pain should be more of a soreness, not sharp:)
I have started this challenge Day 1: I am about 11 inches above from ground. Day 2: It hurts my hips and back is sour, but I did Day 3: Wow! I am 9 inches above from the ground I'll keep updating for next 11 days Keep motivating!
I tried this one year ago when you firstly posted this video and gave it up during the split process. Back then I could hardly touch my ankle in forward fold. But I continue to do your other workouts and programs since then. When I accidentally found that I am very close to a full split while doing one of your recent stretch class, I came back to this challenge. It’s my day 3 today and I’m just few centimeters away from the full split.The calf of my leg in front is touching the ground now! So grateful for your class.
Her split workout actually works. I was doing her yin yoga mostly everyday for nearly 2-3 weeks and now I am just 2-3 cm far. It felt so good. P.s.- I was 8 cm before.
Prerna Jasti any one in her channel! I got the same experience. I was basically just standing with my legs open at first. After doing her yin yoga class for a while I am now about 3cm on my left side.
Thank you so much Juliana. I’ve been using your splits videos routinely since March, it’s now end of June and I can do front splits on both sides. It’s something I’ve wanted to do since I was a kid and now I’m 25 and I can finally do them :-) I’ve learned so much from you, thank you so so much!
I'm already quite flexible but wasn't able to do full split there used to abe around 2 inches gap between me and the mat. 5 days in and I did split with the right leg and soon will be able to do with the left leg. Update:- Done with the left leg as well 😊 Thankuuu so much ❤️
So, I accepted this challenge today. Will update my progress daily. Day 1: somewhere around 22- 23 centimetre away from the ground. The transition from low lunge to half split and coming back from the split was not smooth enough Day 2 : my hamstrings were paining. So, practiced 6 rounds of surya namaskar, followed by some hamstring stretches and asanas. Day 3: did some hamstring stretches. Day 4: practiced this stretches with the help of blocks and strap. Day 5: kind of started enjoying this practice. Used blocks and strap. No difference in splits. Day 6: sudden pain in my right leg, while pushing it back to hold the split, stopped the practice there itself. Day 7: practice done with blocks (low height this time) Day 8: practice done! cant feel difference in splits, may be I need to push myself a bit more. but was feeling more comfortable with the practice. Day 9: practice done! can feel a slight difference in splits. Day 10 : 👍 Day 11: didn't do Day 12: 👍 Day 13: break
This challenge has helped me so much. I started last year, stopped for a while, and started back up again. I'm on day 12 and have seen major improvements. Even after I finish the challenge, I'm going to do all the videos again since they allow for such amazing relief in the body. Thank you so much Boho Beautiful!
Finally got my splits today!! 😍 These videos really do work! It took me 5 weeks, I started really high of the ground and very stiff from office work so these stretches were perfect. Staring the new middle splits one tomorrow! ✨
That was wonderful. It’s my day one and I have never sweated like this before. I am practicing hatha yoga for last one month and today decided to do this. I was almost there. I will update this whenever I am able to do the full split. Thanks once again. 🙏🏻
Hello! I’m Mariana and I’m a dancer of both ballet and irish dance, I’m going to comment how my progress comes and see how long it takes me to reach my full splits :) Day 1: I don’t feel that flexible and I’m like 3-4 cm away from the floor and my left leg is less flexible than my right. I need to be patient and I hope I improve. Day 2: I still fell in the same position but I need to still be patient. Day 3: I felt an improvement, I warmed up more my legs and when she said to push one hip forward and the other to the back I lowered more my splits.
I’ve been doing this for two weeks now and I already feel a difference. I’ve always thought I wasn’t flexible but this is helping so much !! Here’s my progress: Day 1 - 37 cm, really difficult but great stretch Day 6 - 28 cm, getting better but still hurts Day 9 - 24 cm, still getting better ! Day 14 - 23 cm, hurt a little Day 15 - 22.5 cm, took a break for a few days. My legs were really sore, but it felt good to stretch! I’ll update this as I keep going ;)
@@crabdips Still working for it! Some bodies are just not made for the splits but we can work towards getting more flexible physically which leads to our mental state improving and bettering. Hope you find yourself in this journey too. :)
Split journal I will start this today and let you know about my progress. Edit: Day 1: it is a very nice workout, I enjoyed very much. I did it in the morning after I woke up. It hurt when I sat in split position, for me personally extra warm-up is needed, because my body is very stiff in the morning. I am approximately 20 cm far from the floor with my hips. I will definitely continue the next days 😊. My flexibility level: I do hatha yoga or ashtanga on a regular base 2X a week for 2 years and I can reach with my forehead my knees. Day 2: it hurts a lot.
I did this every other day ish for around 2 weeks and got the splits! I think I could have gotten them sooner, but I went slowly and used yoga blocks. So excited as I have genetically very tight hips and hamstrings, so if I can do it, you can too.
@@pkshez hi, I can do full split now but only one side. Still working hard on the other side,about 20cm to go...long way to go. I will keep following this training every night. I suggest to add one more set of pigeon pose, will help you get the split faster. Don't give up!!😊
Ive started too and it's been really good, i also use a video called instense middle split routine (or maybe workout, i cant remember) using both has been making me extra flexy but im missing my upper body yoga
I’ve been doing this for like a month or two now, I can feel that one muscle starting release I’m excited 😆 almost to the floor thank you for this challenge
Day 2. Feels pretty good. I try to be careful, you never ever want to tear, slow and steady is the deal. My hip flexor feels like it has nowhere to go, like it can’t possibly move forward more. It so difficult for me to go at a slower pace, I have always had difficultly holding still if I don’t feel productive enough. So this is a big mental and physical challenge for me. I am somewhat naturally flexible, so we will see how this progresses.
Well, I've decided to do this from March 13th. I will do the 14-day challenge in the description. I'm not a beginner, but I am not at the advanced level either. I tried a 3-month program before, nowadays I was doing a 30-minute stretch routine. So now I'm almost 7-8 cm from the ground. Day 1: In general, it was not that difficult, as it contained movements that I had previously made. I had a little difficulty with some new moves. Although the second video was longer, it was more comfortable. It was not easy, but it was not difficult either. Day 2: It seemed harder than yesterday. Im 6 cm from the ground Day 3: Done!! Day 4: it's kinda difficult but done Day 5: Done!

Tezeth _13 hi! I took a week off practice because my hamstrings and hip muscles were getting really strained and I didn’t want to risk an Injury at this time. I started again today and I am very close to my right splits!
I'm a yoga instructor, so I truly appreciate this! I already have my splits, but I still love this practice. The splits are such a wonderful pose to master for increased flexibility. To everyone attempting to get their splits: please remember to give yourself grace above all. This challenging pose takes time, so be kind to yourself during the process. With consistency, I promise - YOU WILL SEE RESULTS. Just remain positive and patient! You can do it!
I am on day 8, feeling so much flexible! I think I will get the full splits by the end... so happy and grateful. Thanks Juliana and Mark for making this wonderful challenge.
Today was my first day trying this. I will try to do this everyday and I will try to update everyday. Days: 1: Hurt and couldn’t do most of the movements 2: I got most of it done
Hello ppl. This workout felt good. I never sat on a split before, but I was very close to getting in one. But because of corona, my splits got lost. Now I’m here doing this workout to get my full splits finally! I will try keep y’all updated🥰🤞Hope I will achieve my goal! 💙🥰😉 Day 1: Hurts. Didn’t stretch for ages)) Day 2: stretches much nicer but still high off the ground. Hurts a tiny bit less.
Juliana and Mark! What an awesome video. I have no reason to DO the splits, no one to impress, I'm not on a sports team, I'm not taking dance classes. But this was so amazing for releasing the negative emotions and memories around the hips! My hips did not reach the floor but just practicing was the perfect stretch for me. This was calming, grounding, and I feel great. This video helped achieve everything I have come to expect from my time on the mat
4/28: Day 1- Just completed my first day, definitely high off the ground. Lol but can’t wait to see some improvement. Definitely don’t think I’ll have splits in 14 days but I’m ready to fall in love with the journey. Thanks for these vids! By the way, starting my splits journey at 29, ive never been able to do splits, like my entire life. Let’s see where this takes me. 4/29 Day 2: I noticed my hamstrings were less stiff. I try to do yoga in the morning and at night and feel longer in the other sessions. Less tight in Downward Dog. Also yesterday, the splits were so hard for me, I kept thinking when is this over? But today I was able to breathe into the poses more. 4/30 Day 3: I’m able to breathe easier into each exercise. I started using a strap for the beginning exercises to deepen the range. 5/1 Day 4: skipped today 5/2 Day 5: because I skipped yesterday I’m doubling up today. Just wrapped a session. A tad tighter today but I can still see improvement in the movement. I’m able to hold positions longer without cringing and relax deeper into the poses. My soaz muscle must be opening up (yay!) 2nd round (day 6 makeup): I’m able to go a little deeper. I’m starting to feel sore in my hamstrings. 5/3 Day 7: still at it! I notice I am deeper on my right side. I’m still high up but on my right side I was able to get my heel flat on the ground, progress! 😁 my hands can’t touch the floor yet though.
I've always wanted to fully do the splits but I've never been able to do them.... So I started today and I'm going to write about my progress!! 1.day:✔️41cm AWAY! it was hard for me and my legs were hurting😩. I weren't able to perfectly do all the stretches. (sometimes I were trying so hard that I forgot to breathe but hey... I'm still alive😂❤️. Day 2:I couldn't do it today Day 3:➖ Day 4:➖ I'm not going to stop cause I want them so bad!!!❤️ let's do this!!! Feel free to like so I remember to write about the progress❤️
it can be done depending on how you work, what people need to understand is that before you attempt to do the splits you have to prepare the hamstrings and the hips before even thinking about hitting the split position, the period in which it takes to get the split can depend on a few things like how flexible your body is and how often you work at it, but you will also need to follow a good tutorial to achieve it my new Yt channel specializes in stretching from beginners level to advanced level you're welcome to try them out
So I started dancing from a really young age just as a hobby but I've always struggled with my flexibility. But I have more time now so I'm gonna leave udates! Let's see if I can pull this off ;) Day 1: I'm really stiff because I haven't danced of stretched for almost a year however I was never far away from a split. Today I was sore from my workout and I was really bumped to see how much of my flexibility had disappeared. When you sit with your legs in front of you and you reach out to grab your feet, normally I had no problem touching them hell I could almost touch my knees with my head. Today I could bearly reach my toes 😅. But I'm not gonna give up ;)
Stefania Welvaert Any updates? I danced in 8th grade, did ballet for a year, was super unflexible when I started since I was already “old and stiff” compared to dancers at that age lol. My ballet teacher would sit on each of us to push us further down, which helped a lot. I was only able to do full splits on my left leg once after a year. Started this yesterday after my bones felt crazy stiff and I’m usually 4” away from splits in general, but I was like 6” away this week so trying to get down from there. My goal this year is to do the splits in maybe 2-6 months and get better with middle splits but I’ve always been like 1.5 feet away from middle splits lol.
I was so frustrated that I can't do the splits!!But now I'm so happy that I had found a wonderful video that really really helps me to get better day by day!!!Hopefully I can do the full split in a few more days!!! Thank you so much!!!❤️ Don't be sad if you can't get the full split in just 14 days..It only depends on the body like how flexible you are!!! You're not the only person who can't get it!! I'm one of it and also there are a lot of members who can't do it!! So don't give up until you reach your full split!! All the very best to each and everyone of you who had started!!! Don't ever give up!!❤️
Starting today! Background: I do yoga every now and then but since yesterday I have decided to do it everyday for a year. I am flexible to some degree but not super flexible. I have never been able to do the splits and I’m very far from the ground at this point. DAY 1: I am very far from the ground but I have been motivating myself by envisioning where I could be in 1 months time! I definitely felt a deep stretch! DAY 2: my muscles ache a little today because I have been doing another yoga session as well, so I didn’t want to push myself too far. I always feel great after doing this because I never realise how tight my legs are until I start. Obviously no major improvements yet but that’s what I’m working towards! :~D DAY 3: my body is still a little sore today, and so I didn’t push too hard. Again no major improvements as of yet but I do feel I can achieve more of a stretch in some of the poses :) DAY 4: legs feeling much better today. I didn’t realise there were other videos you were meant to be doing as well as so I will be starting those from now on too! DAY 5: my body was a little sore today and I didn’t want to ache any more so I decided to have a break today
MareMoves I’m glad to hear that! Unfortunately at the moment I have decided to give myself a few days break because I have pulled a few muscles from other things but I will get straight back into it once they feel good again! But don’t let this demotivate you :D
Hi Boho Beautiful! Have taken the 14days split challenge, have been practicing Yoga for quite some time now, but the videos that you have put out are soooo sooo beautiful and relaxing! And really appreciate the fact that you have tried to add in some new pose in every video. Im enjoying all the stretches. Sending you gratitude all the way from India😀
I've been using this sequence a few times a week for the past 2 weeks and have finally started to see and FEEL progression. tysm for taking the time & energy to make these videos. they've helped me so much x
I finally did the splits on my left leg today (my stiff leg) after 12 days of this video. Thank you so much Juliana for guiding me so majestically and teaching me breath work for relaxation. I feel so good to finally achieve this goal ❤ Thank you
Day one complete! I had no idea how tight my hips truly were until I walked around after this practice. I felt so much relief! I will definitely try my best to do this every day until I can finally do the splits. I encourage all of you to not give up. We’ve got this!
Done with this challenge! I am so happy with my progress .. almost 2-3 inches left to go ! 🙌🏾 so thankful to you ‘ ❤️ Quarantining with your yoga sessions 🧘🏼♀️
I'm planning for tommorow and my plan is to get up early and just get it over with. In the morning I won't be fully awake so I won't have to feel the pain :(
Because I already had a bit of flexibility, I am already doing my splits in 4 days...but only with the right leg.. Left leg is almost there.. Perfect challenge, thank you so much! I have 10 days, and I am sure till there I will be👌🏽👌🏽I’ll come and give my feedback!
I am so happy, I just finished the 14 day challenge, and my right leg split is perfect now...in the left side I really got better too, but it’s still not straight... I am going to do the challenge again, starting from tomorrow, to make my splits more better. Thank you so much for this, I love working out!❤️

I loved your review! It helped me alot and to see someone else (a Muslim) doing it made me motivated to learn the splits I appreciate you writing this and I also wanted to ask did you get your split ? Love you 💕 have a nice day and very late Eid Mubarak
Started June 20th! Day one - I’ve already been doing basic stretches for five months so my fingertips can touch the ground, hopefully by the end of the two weeks it will improve! I’ll update you!
Doing this challenge until hopefully I get my splits Background: I’m 18 years old and not flexible at all can’t even sit with crossed legs 🧘♀️ Jan\12: ✅completed (I’m so far away from the floor) Jan\13: ✅ Jan\14:✅ Jan\15:✅ Jan\16:✅ Jan\17: ✅ my left side is getting closer to the ground my right side still feels very tight Jan\18:✅ Jan\19:✅ Jan\20: skipped because of pain Jan\21:✅ very smooth practice today (I did warm up)
Sending you love and happiness (: I have always struggled doing my front and middle split. I used to do yoga in school and participate in various competitions and I could never do splits. I used to procrastinate and give up half way but today I can very easily get into my front split and it just took 17 days of dedication and never giving up spirit. I am so happy today, can't stop seeing my video doing splits. Big thanks to you and the instructions, it kept pushing me forward. For once in life I enjoyed pain. It was sooo good, still long to go. I can now practice my middle splits. Thankyou so much, keep inspiring. Lots of love and good health to you❤
I love this channel and have been following you guys for years, but just a feedback, maybe change the title of this challenge? I understand there are some naturally flexible people that could get their full splits in just 14 days, but for most people it´s a process that takes months or years. Going into this challenge expecting the full splits in just two weeks can be really frustrating and even cause people to exert themselves beyond their limits and lead to physical damage. And I know that´s not what this channel´s about. Anyways, just a thought ;)
It's not really about the results though, it's about establishing a habit of working towards a goal everyday. She had another splits series for 30 days. I don't have mine yet but getting through her challenges always make me happy
Come on people, I know because I’m her husband. you can learn the stretching habits in 14 days. All things that make you great and stress free take months/years.
I disagree. I tried for years to do the splits. Couldn't do it. I thought I stretched well. Then, I started a beginners gymnastics class and at the start, no one could do the splits. After the first two weeks, we all could. Everyone. And we were all at varying degrees of physical fitness. I was beyond shocked. We stretched about 15-20 min a day. Now, this is for the side splits, not the center. Only one girl could do the center and our coach said it had much more to do with your individual body structure and not just flexibility. I absolutely believe that anyone, starting from zero, can do the splits in fourteen days IF they properly perform a daily stretching routine using maximum effort. It's hard to push yourself that hard on your own without a coach.
Thank you so much for this 14 day challenge series! It helps me practice every day without thought: "I'll skip my workout, because I don't know what to do now" 😄 Every day I'm so grateful that your project brings me joy, helps to be more disciplined and mindful 😊
wow this actually works..for years i havebeen trying to achieve full split.although i can barely do a full split only on my left side, been struggling witj my right..i kept trying and it never improved..after 3, 4 class of this i am in full split today, both sides!!!!...i am writing this just after completion of the routine..i am so happy...i ll keep practicing this routine till i do split without fear..
been working on this for a couple weeks (not super consistently but have been doing other workouts in between) and I'm getting closer and closer every day! huge improvement from when I started
Those exercices are really great, I was not flexible at all in my hips and now I can almost do it !! So thank @bohobeautiful for your programs 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽 Edit: I got it, so happy, and I just do it once a week, since I started!!! I recommend it million times 💕💕
I'll update my progress here for as long as needed. Backstory: I have decided I want to be a contortionist (as a hobby I think). I'm very inflexible and can fit 3 pillows for the side split (both legs). I'm 2 months shy of 15 so I'm starting at not the earliest age but better than never. Day 1: This was fun, my balance is very bad and I'm very unflexible. It hurt but in a good way. I'll come in tomorrow Day 2: I got a fever on top of the cough I've had. I'm pushing through though, pushing through my tears. I ended up taking a break halfway as my mother brought me smoothie😊 Day 3: I wanna puke. But I did it Day 4: I already see a lot of improvement and I still haven't felt sore or gotten damaged! My sister told me I was super close today😋 Day 5: It kinda hurt today. But good news! I can fit *2* pillows under my side split now!! Day 6: Whoohooo! I'm close! Give me 2 more weeks yall! Day 7: Skipped Day 8: Oh boy, that felt great! I'm closer than I was two days ago😊 Day 9: Took a well deserved break Day 10: I went much further today. I'd say I got about 6-8 cm left. It certainly helps when you feel like physical pain isn't worth acknowledging👍 Day 11: Ahaha, was a little depressed yesterday. Anyways, I don't think I went any lower today, if anything I stopped a little higher. But I'm confident I'll at the very least get it within the next 8 weeks. Very least I say! Earliest is possibly in a week or two but I'm determined, I won't give up. Day 12: I sort of did it? Not really, like I did the postures but not long at all. A few seconds maybe. I just can't. It's kind of boring... but relaxing. But it doesn't work for me as I'm always not-relaxed. I can't sleep for gods sake! But I did kind of do them😫 Day 13: Skipped Day 14: Skipped Day 15: I'm back and hoooolyy. I'm close. I'd say in about 4 days I'll make it. But idk, might not. My sister praised me again😊😋😚 (Normally she's very jealous but she doesn't have any interest in the splits for herself so I think that's why) Day 16: Yah yah yah yah. Close. And doesn't feel as uncomfortable. Not there yet though Day 17: Ho-Lee Fuk. I'd say I'm a finger away! Day 18: Skipped Day 19: Skipped Day 20: Skipped (Yeaaah, ahahaha😅) Day 21: I'm back and did it Day 22: Skipped Day 23: Thinking I should stop skipping. Also, I've been stuck on 7-8 cm for a while now and realized I haven't been relaxing into the pose but rather pushed myself in it. Changing methd now Day 24: Skipped Day 25: ✅ Day 26: ✅ Day 27: ✅ Gah, I'm getting frustrated! I can literally force my way down but I'm too scared.. Day 28: ✅ YES! I ASKED MY SISTER TO PUSH ME DOWN (LITTLE SISTER)AND I GOT IT! but I can't keep it by myself BUT I GOT IT! Later: I seemed to have pulled my left hamstring (When u celebrate too early🤦♀️), anyways my righy split is just fine🙂 I'm gonna work on my left when it's healed
I have been seriously stretching every day since march to do a split and even though I am closer than ever, I feel that I have 'plateaued' for the past month, I don't know if I will ever reach it and all those videos that tells you that you can make it in a month ends up making me feel like my body is not as able in that task.. it is very frustrating, but I have talked to some of my friends that dance and they told me I had to stay patient and keep at it. So now, I am going to try your video every day for the next month... (fingers crossed)!! :)
Hey guys! I've been doing this for a week now and I'm recording the process. Next week I'll upload the video with the results on my channel (I'll upload on Saturday 23).
@@MClara-ep4sf sadly I lost all the footage :( but I can tell you that it worked very well. I took 1 day of rest on each week other wise it was too much for me. It's a slow process but with perseverance I know you'll get there!
So happy I came across this video! Today is Day 1 of the challenge for me. I just finished video #1 and I feel great. Boho Beautiful, your voice is very soothing yet encouraging-I appreciate how you constantly remind us to listen to our own bodies and modify the poses as needed. Thank you so much!
Thank you for putting out this challenge for the splits. I have been practicing with another one of your videos, but I am going to incorporate this challenge in my daily practice. I am currently doing the lower body challenge, and fell amazing. Amazing content and effective. love and light Julian and Mark! :)
I have consistently been practicing morning yoga for over a year now (started to regain my flexibility back In quarantine) and just out of curiosity I did this practice , I can do the splits on both sides omg!! Just goes to show that consistent yoga everyday will help you achieve the splits ! As Juliana often says everything in the body is interconnected , trust that and your body and I’m sure you will also achieve your splits as a bonus ! Lots of love and light to those practicing
Wow this routine is amazing I was like doing the exercises and wondering how much I still need to do (it felt like 3minutes) but then I saw that we have already done this for 14 minutes
Day 3: Getting slightly more flexible... hurts like heck though... I’ll keep you guys updated. So I skipped 2 days but I’m back at it. This weekend I got a lil tipsy and busted down and landed the split. Now I’m sore and in pain, don’t think I was ready for it lol...
Thanks to you and my patience I have gotten my left splits 🙂❤️ I can’t even believe this is real My body also feels great I can tell the difference from when I’m not flexible and to when I am😂❤️
I was finally able to do my left front split today. It‘s not perfect yet, but the feeling of actually touching the ground was great. It did take several months, and I will continue stretching to get even more flexible 🙂
Day 1: very VERY painful! But I’m trying to keep it up (also as a tall individual, I’m pretty far off...) Day 2: better but I broke a sweat (realized there is more benefit if you actually follow her 100%, rather than push yourself too much and not complete the practise at your best) Day 3: for the first time I was able to touch my toes without bending my knees! I would seriously listen to her and stay calm when it hurts! Day 4: I was 👌 that close to not doing this stretch today cause my legs are so sore! But hey how else are you supposed to fight DOMS
(progress for myself) i have never in my life been able to do the splits oops but i've been doing other split stretches since mid november 2021 irregularly but i have been doing the stretches of this video for a week (and two rest days, also a leg workout as a warm up). and today my calves touched the ground yayy :) my thighs are still not fully on the ground but i'm on my way. also after 13:00 i did stretch my splits for 30s only each side bc im not able to hold that long yet.. update march: its the beginning of march and i am finally able to do the splits with my left leg in the front (not perfectly tho). i'll keep on stretching :)
Day 9/14 i'm still motivated i've never did a challenge before because i thought i would break up anyways, but 14 days a shorter than other 30 day challenges yes around day 5 or 6 it hurt alot, on next day as well but i think that depends on my mentally state and how relaxed i am doing this video yesterday and today were great i felt like i am in full Split already for about 2 seconds but i stay patient and i love to see the results! nevertheless i think that i have to keep on daily splits stretching to increase flexibility and get to the full split please notice that i was already a bit flexibel before i started this challenge

i am lying on the ground sobbing hyperventilating while she keeps telling me to breathe this is going perfect
Saaaame
Be slow with the pose. First day I struggled too after some days it got a little better ♥️
GO SLOWLY AND CONTROL YOUR BREATHING, WHEN IT HURTS TAKE A DEEP BREATH AND STOP WHEN YOU FEEL YOU HAVE REACHED THE MAXIMUM STRETCH! That is the trick, otherwise you may end up hurting yourself pretty seriously, AND YOU DON'T WANT THAT =) Set gradual goals for yourself, ballet and all the exercises that revolve around it take time. What you do EVERY DAY is what makes the difference, if you overwork you may risk injury or simply give up because you are not giving the body enough time to gradually adapt to such a big change.
Hope this helps! Best wishes =)
Sometimes we keep a lot of emotions stored in our hips. Keep at it 💜
Lmao me
Guys I started 20 centimetres away to get a split and in this 14 days I've made it to 8 centimetres!!!!
Congrats i am going to try this
Thats so cool! Did you keep practicing?
how's you split going made any progress?
How? Did you used to have splits?
ok sis !
Love this! Who else is trying to get the splits in quarantine?
Me
Me too!
Me 2!!
I am! I’m on day 10 and I think I will be able to reach a full split on my left leg pretty soon. Right leg is still a bit off. Anyone else feeling a bit sore in the muscles just below the glutes?
Me! Lol. Good luck to us!
I am taking this challenge. I am 59 years old and determined to do full splits before I am 60. I have attempted this goal with other videos and I say I am about 7 to 8 inches on both sides. One thing I noticed that I have not been doing correctly is keeping my back straight. I am using yoga blocks now to make sure I am and can already feel a difference. Gonna do it !!!
I’ve done this video for like, at least months like probably a year now and this totally got me my splits. 💯 good luck
Edit: I’m not saying it’s gonna take a year it didn’t take me a year. Im back to the video bc I’m just coming back from a knee dislocation. but I’m almost 40 and that was one of my goals for 40.
@@tifstar700 Yay so glad you kept up the commitment and did it and doing it again. I am so close now down to about 3 inches on both sides.. HAHAHA depeds on the day...
How is your progress? 😊
All I can say is “WOW!!!” I completed this challenge about 3 weeks ago to work on my tight hamstrings only to realize they were overstretched and my hip flexibility and glutes needed work. I was able to get fairly close to the floor by the 14th day. Since that time, I’ve worked through as many Boho Beautiful hips and flexibility practices to help work on improving my weak areas. Today, I started this challenge again. Lo and behold, I went right down into a full frontal split. I was shocked, surprised and giddy with joy. I haven’t done this since I was 5 years old and I’m 53 and have had various injuries. This was so unexpected and also motivating me to challenge myself even more.
THANK YOU SO MUCH, Juliana. I am forever grateful. Much love and light to you!!!
P.S. I followed your advice...”Let it go, release what no longer serves you” and “Listen to your body”
This is fantastic!
❤❤❤❤❤❤
🎉🎉❤❤❤❤❤
Dear stranger,
no, you are not the only one who can't do this! We are in this together :)
Love,

thank you 💕
I’m like number 100 😂
I will make it😚

Guys this is really so helpful...... now I’m in my splits! ❤️
Here because I want to learn the WAP dance but need to start with the splits first
Omg 😭 Good luck to your knees, they’re gonna be sooo bruised istg
Oh my God 😂all the best
Oh my God 😂all the best
Nah sis I'm tryna split for my man! Lmao let's get it
Did you finally manage with the WAP dance😊, @chenaraseepersad3482
I'm so excited!! I'm 47 years old and I've never been able to do the splits in my life. I couldn't get rid of my episodic migraines so I made this splits yoga routine my new year's resolution... I felt I needed something I could achieve with my body because I couldn't fix my head. I've been doing it since 1 January about 4-5 times a week when I didn't have migraines, and when I started I was 12cm off the ground. It took me 2.5 months to get my right side splits. Everybody is different. Consistency is essential. Update (13 April): I've just managed the splits on my left side, so that's taken 3.5 months to get both sides. I hope this helps older non-bendy people get an idea of how long it might take. Note that this wasn't all I was doing. I was doing at least one other yoga routine daily for general fitness when I didn't have a migraine. Thank you Boho Beautiful!
Jen Phillips Congratulations! What an amazing accomplishment!
Sophia Alvarez Thank you!
Congrats! I also have episodic migraines and have been working on the splits since the start of the year, so I feel you.
justicedinosaur that's so cool! Congratulations and best wishes. It's hard af, and I only manage one side some of the time.
Wow, that is awesome! I just started last week so I could gain flexibility and I am still very far off but your progress is encouraging!
I tried to do splits and I tore my hamstring on Dec 17 and I am still recovering 😫 please don't force into splits and listen to your body!!!!!
My worst nightmare, that shit must hurt like hell. Get well soon!
Are you better now? When do you think you can come back to this training?
Oh no, hope you are better now. I have had that as a teenager and it was awfull. Just be careful and don't push past your limits. Listen to your body, we are all different and each of us will take different amount of time to achieve this. 😊
You really have to listen to your body during streches, pressure it's normal, pain is a stop sign
Sorry dear
I’m going to do the full programme for the 14 days! I desire to be super flexible to further my skills as a competitive swimmer. I want to be completely in control of my body and learn to move in the most efficient way. I also enjoy gymnastics and I’m an avid yogi! Taking on this challenge will be hard but I’m excited and I will update everyone here!
DAY 1: Felt pretty good, I’d say I’m about 5 inches away from my right splits and 8 inches away on my left splits. Super excited for tomorrow!
I'm about to 17. Thanks to this video, after 2 months with 5 mins stretching everyday, i've finally nailed it. Keep up the good work guys 😙
I've been doing this every day for 4 days now and I already see so much improvement! The first 2 days I felt like I was so far off, and my hips were so sore in the morning, but the 3rd day I noticed a very slight improvement, and today I did this twice through and felt like I could get so much deeper into the stretches! I'm still pretty far off from the splits but I'm closer than I was before, thanks for the routine!
I will update every day soooo..
Day1
Hurts!!!
Day 2
It still hurts but I've made an improvement
Sorry for not updating u guys its been like 3 months I haven't got my splits but I'm confident I will get it at the end of the year every day I stretch and get closer and closer to doing it .keep trying I hope you get yours quicker than mine
Everyone has different bodies and some are more flexible than others so don't give up and push past your limits like what I'm doing cause it works
Thank you for the daily Update
That’s awesome! I just started today! I hope I can get full splits in 2 weeks
How's it going
Wow 3 months
yes and think more about 14 month to 2 years to be able to do a split. 14 days .... have had better laughs
Took me 90 days to hit the floor and happy with it. Thank you! I’ll keep going 😅
Was that with doing only this video?
Advice for you: Try this after yoga/workout when you have warmed up, it feels much nicer and easier. Also after the first time i was at 8cm with my better side and about 12cm with my worse side, i have never been so close and really just staying in one position (even tho it doesent feel good) and just breathing gets you so much closer after this routine. And the closer the floor you are, the easier is to push yourself. I know it feel terrible at first but after few times it will be much easier! Stay consistent
i was gonna like this but ur at 69 likes so i don’t rlly wanna change that sry bro
100 percent agree with this tip about warming up first. I tried this first thing in the morning and when she started easing down into the splits, I was like-- ok, nope, I am not warm up enough to do this without hurting myself.
Summertime!
I came here for training, but ended up in the comments for 30 minutes. You're gold guys hahaha
Thanks coronavirus. I’ll start tomorrow (at my home)
Same here, I'm starting today. Coronavirus 'holidays' = no excuses 😁
Curious about the results.
Kamila Matajova lol😂😂😂
i started today, maybe thats a positive outcome of corona..suddenly many ppl split in their homes, trying to cure the broken system with yoga ^^
Same here. Did my 5th day today =)
Kamila Matajova Good luck!
I've started 1 week ago and I can do the split on the right side and in the left I'm so close to get there. If You do the exercise in the challenge, you will see result soon! Thank you Boho, form Italy.
I'm 14 years old and I am going to make an update everyday as well. So I've already been doing stretching for splits for about 2 months now so I'm a bit closer to the ground than a person who has started for the first time.
Day 1: very painful in my right hamstring. 15 cm above the ground. Will update Tom.
Day 2: I had pain in my hamstrings so I did a little less stretching than yesterday. Still no difference.
Day 3: I did the stretching. Had a lot of pain so no difference.
Day 4: No difference.
Day 5: A little bit of difference, maybe a centimetre or two. But I'm not going to give up guys!!!
Day 6: skipped because I got lazy.
Day 7 (1st week completed): I did stretching, saw no difference in the splits.
Day 8: No difference. But I feel a bit more motivated now.🙂
Day 9: My right hamstring was quite sore so instead of sliding into a split, I did a little hamstring stretches.
Day 10: skipped because of too much homework.
Day 11: Stretching, a little bit of less pain
Day 12: skipped again because of laziness
Day 13: I pushed and pushed and saw quite a difference.😊
Day 14: skipped because of pain.
Day 15: I did less stretching
Day 16: Same as day 13, but no difference.
Day 17: Skipped
Day 18: Skipped
Day 19: Lost a centimetre of progress due to skipping 😭 I stretched.
Day 20: I got back the lost centimetre...Yes I stretched. I think I need to stretch everyday a little bit instead of falling into the splits after every 2 days)
Day 21: stretched a little bit, I skipped sliding into a split though 😅
Day 22: I did the split, and pushed real hard and was 1 centimetre above the ground. Yeahhhh!!!!!
Day 23: I stretched and did the split, and this time I pushed hard wayyyyy past my limits (with a lot of pain of course) and was able to touch the ground. But it might take me about 2-3 weeks to do a full split comfortably without pains 😥. But I'm quite happy about it!!!
Day 25: I couldn't push that much so I wasn't able to touch the ground. :( Will update tomorrow.
Day 26: I think I shouldn't have pushed wayyyyy too hard becuz I lost 1 inch today, I haven't been able to push that much these past 3 days.... Please everyone, don't push that hard like me. Thankfully I didn't get injured. I think I need to be a little more patient. Will update tomorrow. 😥😥😥
Day 27: Skipped as I was exhausted....it was a loooong day...😑
Day 28: I pushed, and pushed and I was very very very close to the ground!!
Day 29: I pushed, and pushed, and pushed wayyyyy wayyyyy wayyyyy past my limits and was successful in touching the ground (but very painful). TT omg, these are tears of joy. I am hopeful I will be comfortable in doing the full splits in 2 weeks. Wish me luck guys!! You all haven't even commented since the past 2 weeks.
Day 30:
remember it takes of time, and you will not see a difference immediately, but everyday you do it you get a little more flexible. Also the pain should be more of a soreness, not sharp:)
I personaly started at 25cm and I got to 10cm after the two weeks (and whit a lot of streching today 5 cm) so don't give up !
So how close did you get?
oh same! good luck!!
@@something2937 about 3 inches above the ground (without any pain) and one inch (with a lot of pain)
I have started this challenge
Day 1: I am about 11 inches above from ground.
Day 2: It hurts my hips and back is sour, but I did
Day 3: Wow! I am 9 inches above from the ground
I'll keep updating for next 11 days
Keep motivating!
I tried this one year ago when you firstly posted this video and gave it up during the split process. Back then I could hardly touch my ankle in forward fold. But I continue to do your other workouts and programs since then. When I accidentally found that I am very close to a full split while doing one of your recent stretch class, I came back to this challenge. It’s my day 3 today and I’m just few centimeters away from the full split.The calf of my leg in front is touching the ground now! So grateful for your class.
Her split workout actually works. I was doing her yin yoga mostly everyday for nearly 2-3 weeks and now I am just 2-3 cm far. It felt so good.
P.s.- I was 8 cm before.
Girl ...which video of yin yoga..plz tell meh
Prerna Jasti any one in her channel! I got the same experience. I was basically just standing with my legs open at first. After doing her yin yoga class for a while I am now about 3cm on my left side.
Thanks!
Thank you so much Juliana. I’ve been using your splits videos routinely since March, it’s now end of June and I can do front splits on both sides. It’s something I’ve wanted to do since I was a kid and now I’m 25 and I can finally do them :-) I’ve learned so much from you, thank you so so much!
I'm already quite flexible but wasn't able to do full split there used to abe around 2 inches gap between me and the mat. 5 days in and I did split with the right leg and soon will be able to do with the left leg.
Update:- Done with the left leg as well 😊
Thankuuu so much ❤️
I’m starting this challenge today, wish me luck 🤯

So, I accepted this challenge today. Will update my progress daily.
Day 1: somewhere around 22- 23 centimetre away from the ground. The transition from low lunge to half split and coming back from the split was not smooth enough
Day 2 : my hamstrings were paining. So, practiced 6 rounds of surya namaskar, followed by some hamstring stretches and asanas.
Day 3: did some hamstring stretches.
Day 4: practiced this stretches with the help of blocks and strap.
Day 5: kind of started enjoying this practice. Used blocks and strap. No difference in splits.
Day 6: sudden pain in my right leg, while pushing it back to hold the split, stopped the practice there itself.
Day 7: practice done with blocks (low height this time)
Day 8: practice done! cant feel difference in splits, may be I need to push myself a bit more. but was feeling more comfortable with the practice.
Day 9: practice done! can feel a slight difference in splits.
Day 10 : 👍
Day 11: didn't do
Day 12: 👍
Day 13: break
Now? It's my dream since so log but couldn't complete it evertytime😑
@@vineetapant9040 Try using blocks and straps
This challenge has helped me so much. I started last year, stopped for a while, and started back up again. I'm on day 12 and have seen major improvements. Even after I finish the challenge, I'm going to do all the videos again since they allow for such amazing relief in the body. Thank you so much Boho Beautiful!
Finally got my splits today!! 😍
These videos really do work! It took me 5 weeks, I started really high of the ground and very stiff from office work so these stretches were perfect.
Staring the new middle splits one tomorrow! ✨
congrats
Did you do this everyday for 5 weeks?
That was wonderful. It’s my day one and I have never sweated like this before. I am practicing hatha yoga for last one month and today decided to do this. I was almost there. I will update this whenever I am able to do the full split. Thanks once again. 🙏🏻
Hello! I’m Mariana and I’m a dancer of both ballet and irish dance, I’m going to comment how my progress comes and see how long it takes me to reach my full splits :)
Day 1: I don’t feel that flexible and I’m like 3-4 cm away from the floor and my left leg is less flexible than my right. I need to be patient and I hope I improve.
Day 2: I still fell in the same position but I need to still be patient.
Day 3: I felt an improvement, I warmed up more my legs and when she said to push one hip forward and the other to the back I lowered more my splits.
I’ve been doing this for two weeks now and I already feel a difference. I’ve always thought I wasn’t flexible but this is helping so much !!
Here’s my progress:
Day 1 - 37 cm, really difficult but great stretch
Day 6 - 28 cm, getting better but still hurts
Day 9 - 24 cm, still getting better !
Day 14 - 23 cm, hurt a little
Day 15 - 22.5 cm, took a break for a few days. My legs were really sore, but it felt good to stretch!
I’ll update this as I keep going ;)
Update? Or gave up?
I’ve been on vacation for a few days so I rested but I’ll be back at it tonight! Hang in there, you got it too!!
@@rosegenco2118 three years later... Did you get the splits?
@@crabdips Still working for it! Some bodies are just not made for the splits but we can work towards getting more flexible physically which leads to our mental state improving and bettering. Hope you find yourself in this journey too. :)
Thanks! I will see what happens in 14 days
Ok this is definitely not for beginners lol. I’m struggling
Parishia Love sis I was thinking the same 😪
Elizabeth Cigarroa I gotta start with beginners for kids haha
You just need to keep practicing
in halfway through and i thought this was going to be a stretch not a yoga thing 😭 this is going to take longer than i thought
Caroline Cole are you good now?
Split journal
I will start this today and let you know about my progress.
Edit:
Day 1: it is a very nice workout, I enjoyed very much. I did it in the morning after I woke up. It hurt when I sat in split position, for me personally extra warm-up is needed, because my body is very stiff in the morning. I am approximately 20 cm far from the floor with my hips. I will definitely continue the next days 😊. My flexibility level: I do hatha yoga or ashtanga on a regular base 2X a week for 2 years and I can reach with my forehead my knees.
Day 2: it hurts a lot.
I did this every other day ish for around 2 weeks and got the splits! I think I could have gotten them sooner, but I went slowly and used yoga blocks. So excited as I have genetically very tight hips and hamstrings, so if I can do it, you can too.
Hi Corona, I started this exercise today.
have you kept it up and how's it going?
@@pkshez hi, I can do full split now but only one side. Still working hard on the other side,about 20cm to go...long way to go. I will keep following this training every night. I suggest to add one more set of pigeon pose, will help you get the split faster. Don't give up!!😊
Ive started too and it's been really good, i also use a video called instense middle split routine (or maybe workout, i cant remember) using both has been making me extra flexy but im missing my upper body yoga
@@pkshez thanks for your info...!
I’ve been doing this for like a month or two now, I can feel that one muscle starting release I’m excited 😆 almost to the floor thank you for this challenge
Oh that is so exciting! Let us know how you progress!
Yeah even me i am trying to split
Day 2. Feels pretty good. I try to be careful, you never ever want to tear, slow and steady is the deal. My hip flexor feels like it has nowhere to go, like it can’t possibly move forward more. It so difficult for me to go at a slower pace, I have always had difficultly holding still if I don’t feel productive enough. So this is a big mental and physical challenge for me. I am somewhat naturally flexible, so we will see how this progresses.
Been doing it for about a week now and am about 3 inches from the ground from about 6 originally . Almost there! Keep at it folks! Patience!
Well, I've decided to do this from March 13th. I will do the 14-day challenge in the description. I'm not a beginner, but I am not at the advanced level either. I tried a 3-month program before, nowadays I was doing a 30-minute stretch routine. So now I'm almost 7-8 cm from the ground.
Day 1: In general, it was not that difficult, as it contained movements that I had previously made. I had a little difficulty with some new moves. Although the second video was longer, it was more comfortable. It was not easy, but it was not difficult either.
Day 2: It seemed harder than yesterday. Im 6 cm from the ground
Day 3: Done!!
Day 4: it's kinda difficult but done
Day 5: Done!
It took me 14 months to achieve a split and I practice every day! Great sequence!

Somya Goel hows it going now?
Tezeth _13 hi! I took a week off practice because my hamstrings and hip muscles were getting really strained and I didn’t want to risk an Injury at this time. I started again today and I am very close to my right splits!
Somya Goel that amazing!
How is it
Result
Right time... Right video... Yes UNIVERSE is listening to me... 💝💝💝💝thank you so much for this video.. Thank a lot.. ❤❤❤❤❤
yeah same xD
Totally.
I'm a yoga instructor, so I truly appreciate this! I already have my splits, but I still love this practice. The splits are such a wonderful pose to master for increased flexibility. To everyone attempting to get their splits: please remember to give yourself grace above all. This challenging pose takes time, so be kind to yourself during the process. With consistency, I promise - YOU WILL SEE RESULTS. Just remain positive and patient! You can do it!
I am on day 8, feeling so much flexible! I think I will get the full splits by the end... so happy and grateful. Thanks Juliana and Mark for making this wonderful challenge.
how did it go?
My update!!
Day 1: 30cm to go, stretching was kinda fun!!
Day 2: no process
Day 3: felt a bit easier
Day 4: 22cm to go :)
Day 5: OMG only 14cm to go
hey
Today was my first day trying this. I will try to do this everyday and I will try to update everyday.
Days:
1: Hurt and couldn’t do most of the movements
2: I got most of it done
I'm with you! Just started as well.
Days:
1: Frustrated 'cause I'm usually sorta flexible. Obviously not around my hips. Hard to keep a straight back!
@@malinsoderberg3026 Honestly I couldn't even tell if I'm flexible or not because I couldn't stay balanced enough to hold any of the positions
Hello ppl. This workout felt good. I never sat on a split before, but I was very close to getting in one. But because of corona, my splits got lost. Now I’m here doing this workout to get my full splits finally!
I will try keep y’all updated🥰🤞Hope I will achieve my goal! 💙🥰😉
Day 1: Hurts. Didn’t stretch for ages))
Day 2: stretches much nicer but still high off the ground. Hurts a tiny bit less.
You keep pumping out these programs! My summer is stocked. Thank you. ♥️🙏🏻
Day 7 tomorrow! Getting excited! Maybe a little bit closer, but definitely less painful.
Juliana and Mark! What an awesome video. I have no reason to DO the splits, no one to impress, I'm not on a sports team, I'm not taking dance classes. But this was so amazing for releasing the negative emotions and memories around the hips! My hips did not reach the floor but just practicing was the perfect stretch for me. This was calming, grounding, and I feel great. This video helped achieve everything I have come to expect from my time on the mat
4/28: Day 1- Just completed my first day, definitely high off the ground. Lol but can’t wait to see some improvement. Definitely don’t think I’ll have splits in 14 days but I’m ready to fall in love with the journey. Thanks for these vids! By the way, starting my splits journey at 29, ive never been able to do splits, like my entire life. Let’s see where this takes me.
4/29 Day 2: I noticed my hamstrings were less stiff. I try to do yoga in the morning and at night and feel longer in the other sessions. Less tight in Downward Dog. Also yesterday, the splits were so hard for me, I kept thinking when is this over? But today I was able to breathe into the poses more.
4/30 Day 3: I’m able to breathe easier into each exercise. I started using a strap for the beginning exercises to deepen the range.
5/1 Day 4: skipped today
5/2 Day 5: because I skipped yesterday I’m doubling up today. Just wrapped a session. A tad tighter today but I can still see improvement in the movement. I’m able to hold positions longer without cringing and relax deeper into the poses. My soaz muscle must be opening up (yay!)
2nd round (day 6 makeup): I’m able to go a little deeper. I’m starting to feel sore in my hamstrings.
5/3 Day 7: still at it! I notice I am deeper on my right side. I’m still high up but on my right side I was able to get my heel flat on the ground, progress! 😁 my hands can’t touch the floor yet though.
If I can do the splits I'll be so happy! Gonna practice this in my Bikram yoga before/after class.
I am 60 and I was able to do it with your help . I appreciate so much , your videos offer so much value..❤🇺🇸
I've always wanted to fully do the splits but I've never been able to do them.... So I started today and I'm going to write about my progress!!
1.day:✔️41cm AWAY!
it was hard for me and my legs were hurting😩. I weren't able to perfectly do all the stretches. (sometimes I were trying so hard that I forgot to breathe but hey... I'm still alive😂❤️.
Day 2:I couldn't do it today
Day 3:➖
Day 4:➖
I'm not going to stop cause I want them so bad!!!❤️ let's do this!!! Feel free to like so I remember to write about the progress❤️
How’s Progress?
@@bruisescarr I could not do it yesterday but I'm going to do it today in the evening 😊🙈
@@mathiszatcha4888 go for it! I believe you will do it!
@@zrinklaz thankss🙈❤️
it can be done depending on how you work, what people need to understand is that before you attempt to do the splits you have to prepare the hamstrings and the hips before even thinking about hitting the split position, the period in which it takes to get the split can depend on a few things like how flexible your body is and how often you work at it, but you will also need to follow a good tutorial to achieve it my new Yt channel specializes in stretching from beginners level to advanced level you're welcome to try them out
I've been doing this for a while and the results are very noticeable. Thank you for this amazing and easy to do as well as convenient yoga video :)
So I started dancing from a really young age just as a hobby but I've always struggled with my flexibility. But I have more time now so I'm gonna leave udates! Let's see if I can pull this off ;)
Day 1: I'm really stiff because I haven't danced of stretched for almost a year however I was never far away from a split. Today I was sore from my workout and I was really bumped to see how much of my flexibility had disappeared. When you sit with your legs in front of you and you reach out to grab your feet, normally I had no problem touching them hell I could almost touch my knees with my head. Today I could bearly reach my toes 😅. But I'm not gonna give up ;)
Stefania Welvaert Any updates? I danced in 8th grade, did ballet for a year, was super unflexible when I started since I was already “old and stiff” compared to dancers at that age lol. My ballet teacher would sit on each of us to push us further down, which helped a lot. I was only able to do full splits on my left leg once after a year. Started this yesterday after my bones felt crazy stiff and I’m usually 4” away from splits in general, but I was like 6” away this week so trying to get down from there. My goal this year is to do the splits in maybe 2-6 months and get better with middle splits but I’ve always been like 1.5 feet away from middle splits lol.
I was so frustrated that I can't do the splits!!But now I'm so happy that I had found a wonderful video that really really helps me to get better day by day!!!Hopefully I can do the full split in a few more days!!! Thank you so much!!!❤️ Don't be sad if you can't get the full split in just 14 days..It only depends on the body like how flexible you are!!! You're not the only person who can't get it!! I'm one of it and also there are a lot of members who can't do it!! So don't give up until you reach your full split!! All the very best to each and everyone of you who had started!!! Don't ever give up!!❤️
Starting today! Background: I do yoga every now and then but since yesterday I have decided to do it everyday for a year. I am flexible to some degree but not super flexible. I have never been able to do the splits and I’m very far from the ground at this point.
DAY 1: I am very far from the ground but I have been motivating myself by envisioning where I could be in 1 months time! I definitely felt a deep stretch!
DAY 2: my muscles ache a little today because I have been doing another yoga session as well, so I didn’t want to push myself too far. I always feel great after doing this because I never realise how tight my legs are until I start. Obviously no major improvements yet but that’s what I’m working towards! :~D
DAY 3: my body is still a little sore today, and so I didn’t push too hard. Again no major improvements as of yet but I do feel I can achieve more of a stretch in some of the poses :)
DAY 4: legs feeling much better today. I didn’t realise there were other videos you were meant to be doing as well as so I will be starting those from now on too!
DAY 5: my body was a little sore today and I didn’t want to ache any more so I decided to have a break today
Keep editing your progress!! :)
sharon klausner I am doing day 3 later on today! But don’t worry I will be! ✨❤️
keep updating!
Thank you for updating your progress. This is my first day and I’m struggling real hard, but you going further motivates me.
MareMoves I’m glad to hear that! Unfortunately at the moment I have decided to give myself a few days break because I have pulled a few muscles from other things but I will get straight back into it once they feel good again! But don’t let this demotivate you :D
Day 1: 22cm
Day 8: 17cm
Day12: 10cm away from ground. Definetely works 🥳🥳 but it takes more time than 14 day for me. Thanks.
Hi Boho Beautiful! Have taken the 14days split challenge, have been practicing Yoga for quite some time now, but the videos that you have put out are soooo sooo beautiful and relaxing! And really appreciate the fact that you have tried to add in some new pose in every video. Im enjoying all the stretches. Sending you gratitude all the way from India😀
I've been using this sequence a few times a week for the past 2 weeks and have finally started to see and FEEL progression. tysm for taking the time & energy to make these videos. they've helped me so much x
I finally did the splits on my left leg today (my stiff leg) after 12 days of this video. Thank you so much Juliana for guiding me so majestically and teaching me breath work for relaxation. I feel so good to finally achieve this goal ❤ Thank you
Yeah!! Thanks for sharing.
Day one complete! I had no idea how tight my hips truly were until I walked around after this practice. I felt so much relief! I will definitely try my best to do this every day until I can finally do the splits. I encourage all of you to not give up. We’ve got this!
Done with this challenge! I am so happy with my progress .. almost 2-3 inches left to go ! 🙌🏾 so thankful to you ‘ ❤️ Quarantining with your yoga sessions 🧘🏼♀️
i started this and 8th time doing it im in full split, i cant believe it,,im slim if that counts but i don't do any other exercise
who else is from gabby??💕 this is the last video for day one and i’m dying but in a good way LMAOAOAOOA
Me...
I'm planning for tommorow and my plan is to get up early and just get it over with. In the morning I won't be fully awake so I won't have to feel the pain :(
@@marshall1003 darling, it will burn anyway. Plus don't forget to warm up!
Which Gabby are you talking about?
@@talmatan9785 Gabriella Whited
Because I already had a bit of flexibility, I am already doing my splits in 4 days...but only with the right leg..
Left leg is almost there..
Perfect challenge, thank you so much!
I have 10 days, and I am sure till there I will be👌🏽👌🏽I’ll come and give my feedback!
Can I just say that I’m blown away. After following this video, I almost could do the splits I WENT SO LOW. I’m so shocked.
I am so happy, I just finished the 14 day challenge, and my right leg split is perfect now...in the left side I really got better too, but it’s still not straight...
I am going to do the challenge again, starting from tomorrow, to make my splits more better.
Thank you so much for this, I love working out!❤️
*Day 1:*

Love you 💕 have a nice day and very late Eid Mubarak

Sending you love and happiness (:
I have always struggled doing my front and middle split. I used to do yoga in school and participate in various competitions and I could never do splits. I used to procrastinate and give up half way but today I can very easily get into my front split and it just took 17 days of dedication and never giving up spirit. I am so happy today, can't stop seeing my video doing splits. Big thanks to you and the instructions, it kept pushing me forward. For once in life I enjoyed pain. It was sooo good, still long to go. I can now practice my middle splits.
Thankyou so much, keep inspiring.
Lots of love and good health to you❤
I love this channel and have been following you guys for years, but just a feedback, maybe change the title of this challenge? I understand there are some naturally flexible people that could get their full splits in just 14 days, but for most people it´s a process that takes months or years. Going into this challenge expecting the full splits in just two weeks can be really frustrating and even cause people to exert themselves beyond their limits and lead to physical damage. And I know that´s not what this channel´s about. Anyways, just a thought ;)
It's not really about the results though, it's about establishing a habit of working towards a goal everyday. She had another splits series for 30 days. I don't have mine yet but getting through her challenges always make me happy
Come on people, I know because I’m her husband. you can learn the stretching habits in 14 days. All things that make you great and stress free take months/years.
I do not believe that I stretch since 15 years ago but I can not do full split
Yep, it's called false advertising, what they are doing.
I disagree. I tried for years to do the splits. Couldn't do it. I thought I stretched well. Then, I started a beginners gymnastics class and at the start, no one could do the splits. After the first two weeks, we all could. Everyone. And we were all at varying degrees of physical fitness. I was beyond shocked. We stretched about 15-20 min a day. Now, this is for the side splits, not the center. Only one girl could do the center and our coach said it had much more to do with your individual body structure and not just flexibility. I absolutely believe that anyone, starting from zero, can do the splits in fourteen days IF they properly perform a daily stretching routine using maximum effort. It's hard to push yourself that hard on your own without a coach.
I just completed the challenge and I just loved it!! It helped me to finally get my full split 😍
Thank you so much for this 14 day challenge series! It helps me practice every day without thought: "I'll skip my workout, because I don't know what to do now" 😄 Every day I'm so grateful that your project brings me joy, helps to be more disciplined and mindful 😊
wow this actually works..for years i havebeen trying to achieve full split.although i can barely do a full split only on my left side, been struggling witj my right..i kept trying and it never improved..after 3, 4 class of this i am in full split today, both sides!!!!...i am writing this just after completion of the routine..i am so happy...i ll keep practicing this routine till i do split without fear..
I would LOVE an upper body/back flexibility challenge next!
Your videos are great, thank you so much for sharing them
been working on this for a couple weeks (not super consistently but have been doing other workouts in between) and I'm getting closer and closer every day! huge improvement from when I started
Ok RUclips recommendations, guess I’m working on splits while in quarantine
Good luck
Those exercices are really great, I was not flexible at all in my hips and now I can almost do it !! So thank @bohobeautiful for your programs 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
Edit: I got it, so happy, and I just do it once a week, since I started!!! I recommend it million times 💕💕
I'll update my progress here for as long as needed.
Backstory: I have decided I want to be a contortionist (as a hobby I think). I'm very inflexible and can fit 3 pillows for the side split (both legs). I'm 2 months shy of 15 so I'm starting at not the earliest age but better than never.
Day 1: This was fun, my balance is very bad and I'm very unflexible. It hurt but in a good way. I'll come in tomorrow
Day 2: I got a fever on top of the cough I've had. I'm pushing through though, pushing through my tears. I ended up taking a break halfway as my mother brought me smoothie😊
Day 3: I wanna puke. But I did it
Day 4: I already see a lot of improvement and I still haven't felt sore or gotten damaged! My sister told me I was super close today😋
Day 5: It kinda hurt today. But good news! I can fit *2* pillows under my side split now!!
Day 6: Whoohooo! I'm close! Give me 2 more weeks yall!
Day 7: Skipped
Day 8: Oh boy, that felt great! I'm closer than I was two days ago😊
Day 9: Took a well deserved break
Day 10: I went much further today. I'd say I got about 6-8 cm left. It certainly helps when you feel like physical pain isn't worth acknowledging👍
Day 11: Ahaha, was a little depressed yesterday. Anyways, I don't think I went any lower today, if anything I stopped a little higher. But I'm confident I'll at the very least get it within the next 8 weeks. Very least I say! Earliest is possibly in a week or two but I'm determined, I won't give up.
Day 12: I sort of did it? Not really, like I did the postures but not long at all. A few seconds maybe. I just can't. It's kind of boring... but relaxing. But it doesn't work for me as I'm always not-relaxed. I can't sleep for gods sake! But I did kind of do them😫
Day 13: Skipped
Day 14: Skipped
Day 15: I'm back and hoooolyy. I'm close. I'd say in about 4 days I'll make it. But idk, might not. My sister praised me again😊😋😚 (Normally she's very jealous but she doesn't have any interest in the splits for herself so I think that's why)
Day 16: Yah yah yah yah. Close. And doesn't feel as uncomfortable. Not there yet though
Day 17: Ho-Lee Fuk. I'd say I'm a finger away!
Day 18: Skipped
Day 19: Skipped
Day 20: Skipped (Yeaaah, ahahaha😅)
Day 21: I'm back and did it
Day 22: Skipped
Day 23: Thinking I should stop skipping. Also, I've been stuck on 7-8 cm for a while now and realized I haven't been relaxing into the pose but rather pushed myself in it. Changing methd now
Day 24: Skipped
Day 25: ✅
Day 26: ✅
Day 27: ✅ Gah, I'm getting frustrated! I can literally force my way down but I'm too scared..
Day 28: ✅ YES! I ASKED MY SISTER TO PUSH ME DOWN (LITTLE SISTER)AND I GOT IT! but I can't keep it by myself BUT I GOT IT!
Later: I seemed to have pulled my left hamstring (When u celebrate too early🤦♀️), anyways my righy split is just fine🙂
I'm gonna work on my left when it's healed
I have been seriously stretching every day since march to do a split and even though I am closer than ever, I feel that I have 'plateaued' for the past month, I don't know if I will ever reach it and all those videos that tells you that you can make it in a month ends up making me feel like my body is not as able in that task.. it is very frustrating, but I have talked to some of my friends that dance and they told me I had to stay patient and keep at it. So now, I am going to try your video every day for the next month... (fingers crossed)!! :)
Hey guys! I've been doing this for a week now and I'm recording the process. Next week I'll upload the video with the results on my channel (I'll upload on Saturday 23).
Did you upload? Couldn't find it
@@MClara-ep4sf sadly I lost all the footage :( but I can tell you that it worked very well. I took 1 day of rest on each week other wise it was too much for me. It's a slow process but with perseverance I know you'll get there!
Omg
So happy I came across this video! Today is Day 1 of the challenge for me. I just finished video #1 and I feel great. Boho Beautiful, your voice is very soothing yet encouraging-I appreciate how you constantly remind us to listen to our own bodies and modify the poses as needed. Thank you so much!
Thank you for putting out this challenge for the splits. I have been practicing with another one of your videos, but I am going to incorporate this challenge in my daily practice. I am currently doing the lower body challenge, and fell amazing. Amazing content and effective. love and light Julian and Mark! :)
I have consistently been practicing morning yoga for over a year now (started to regain my flexibility back In quarantine) and just out of curiosity I did this practice , I can do the splits on both sides omg!! Just goes to show that consistent yoga everyday will help you achieve the splits ! As Juliana often says everything in the body is interconnected , trust that and your body and I’m sure you will also achieve your splits as a bonus ! Lots of love and light to those practicing
Wow this routine is amazing I was like doing the exercises and wondering how much I still need to do (it felt like 3minutes) but then I saw that we have already done this for 14 minutes
Day 3: Getting slightly more flexible... hurts like heck though... I’ll keep you guys updated.
So I skipped 2 days but I’m back at it. This weekend I got a lil tipsy and busted down and landed the split. Now I’m sore and in pain, don’t think I was ready for it lol...
Thanks to you and my patience I have gotten my left splits 🙂❤️ I can’t even believe this is real My body also feels great I can tell the difference from when I’m not flexible and to when I am😂❤️
I was finally able to do my left front split today. It‘s not perfect yet, but the feeling of actually touching the ground was great. It did take several months, and I will continue stretching to get even more flexible 🙂
Day 1: very VERY painful! But I’m trying to keep it up (also as a tall individual, I’m pretty far off...)
Day 2: better but I broke a sweat (realized there is more benefit if you actually follow her 100%, rather than push yourself too much and not complete the practise at your best)
Day 3: for the first time I was able to touch my toes without bending my knees! I would seriously listen to her and stay calm when it hurts!
Day 4: I was 👌 that close to not doing this stretch today cause my legs are so sore! But hey how else are you supposed to fight DOMS
(progress for myself)
i have never in my life been able to do the splits oops but i've been doing other split stretches since mid november 2021 irregularly but i have been doing the stretches of this video for a week (and two rest days, also a leg workout as a warm up).
and today my calves touched the ground yayy :) my thighs are still not fully on the ground but i'm on my way.
also after 13:00 i did stretch my splits for 30s only each side bc im not able to hold that long yet..
update march: its the beginning of march and i am finally able to do the splits with my left leg in the front (not perfectly tho). i'll keep on stretching :)
Your classes and videos are absolutely amazing, wish they come out more often on youtube :)
Day 9/14
i'm still motivated
i've never did a challenge before because i thought i would break up anyways, but 14 days a shorter than other 30 day challenges
yes around day 5 or 6 it hurt alot, on next day as well but i think that depends on my mentally state and how relaxed i am doing this video
yesterday and today were great i felt like i am in full Split already for about 2 seconds but i stay patient
and i love to see the results!
nevertheless i think that i have to keep on daily splits stretching to increase flexibility and get to the full split
please notice that i was already a bit flexibel before i started this challenge
