My coach used to call the open-hip splits "lazy cheat" cuz it's easier to achieve compare with the squared one. But I didn't know about the injury part. Thx for bringing this up. And for those who comment on ballet dancer's splits, their hips are squared, they only turn out the knee( if you take a look, their hips are not tilted to one side; only the knee and the sole are turned out).
Turnout comes from the hip flexors(or the “sockets,” if you will). If dancers force their turnout using their knees or ankles, they are bound to get injured. Please educate yourself about proper ballet technique!
Ballet dancers have to stretch and strengthen their turnout muscles so that they can maintain proper turnout while maintaining proper technique in all other parts of the body. Turnout is best served with square hips :))
@@rachelplummer2668 yes thank you for. Telling them I am a ballet dancer as well (on the amount of knowing you have I’m pretty sure your a ballet dancer)
@@rachelplummer2668 My ballet teacher always tells me to turnout, cause I suck at it. When we do are adagio combination at the barre, that's when I forget to turnout.
Yes ballets still have hips square but instead of their toes pointing to the ceiling there toes is turned 90 degrees like u said knees
They have different rules but the closest sport to Rythmic Gymnastics
Artistic gymnastics coach here. Thank GOD someone is addressing square splits. I have students come in all the time and show me their splits and they’re horrifically crooked. It’s a bad habit a lot of people get in. A bad habit that can hurt your body and mess up critical skills. I’ll definitely be recommending this to my gymnasts
Love it, this is extremely important in Artistic Gymnastics as well. I will be using this for my girls. Lol
Okay, so, I trained rhythmic gymnastic for 10 years (from 5th to 15th). Then I found out I have scoliosis and doctors said it was cuz of gymnastic (using one side). I guess this was one of the reasons... watch your back, girls!
Tyyy
hi
Oh my friend has scoliosis but she doesnt know how she got it(She never did gymnastics)
If you strengthen your back you will be good 😊
And boys!
me watching this when I'm not even close to achieving a split
I know right I cant wait for her tutorial
Same
hi hi hi hi hi hi
Same
I know right 😭😭😭
My dance teacher always told me to do square hips, but never genuinely told me how. This is very helpful, thank you!
I always though it was because when doing something like a grand jeté, your hips are meant to be squared.
This is exactly the video I've been looking for! No one ever corrected me as a kid, but I definitely figured out my hips were totally open and twisted as I got older. Even something as simple as kicking up to a handstand had my hips discombobulated and retraining my body has been quite the challenge. I saw the IGTV you did on square splits a while ago and this is the perfect follow up. I've been watching you for years and years on here and it's been awesome seeing your videos blow up on TikTok!
Same
Is no one going to talk about ALL THOSE MEDALS??
Elena this is what I needed because every time lifted up my back leg it ached a lot but now I realised that I had twisted hips.Thank you elena.
Middle split tutorial pleaseee🥺❤️
I'm not even close of doing a split, but your energy is so positive and contagious, I might actually give it go😂😍
Elena: "alright we're done"
Elli: "I'm done no more splits today"
me: 💯 felt that
Thank you for teaching me and my daughter what is square-hips. These are amazing please do more. My daughter has a problem with her splits but I couldn't pinpoint what her problem was. After watching your video, I finally found out!!! Thank you!
how did you fix it and make the split square? i am struggling
@@Charlou-lq5cd
Like the video said, get anything straight and slow slide down intro your split. Make sure it doesn't twist either.
@@meteor3521 okay thank u
@@Charlou-lq5cd Happy to help!
@@meteor3521 do u have ur splits btw??
Thanks Elena ❤️❤️
I have watching your videos from so many days but never noticed all of the medals behind you ❤️❤️
You are amazing!
Thank you! I was gymnast for 6 years and thank god I realised that I have been doing splits squared. Also I have practiced yoga in English for couple years and I have never thought what squared poses mean but now I know🤍
I have twisted splits and this helped me a lot thanks so much 🥰
I love how she never stops smiling when she is on camera, it keeps me smiling.
Thank you for this video! It was very helpful because I have been stretching to do the splits and this is my main problem :)
I think this can benefit anyone just learning the splits or wishing to improve them regardless if their ballet teacher says turn out leg.
Love your personality, stay the way you are, this was alot of fun to watch! :3
It's amazing that she teaches the tutorial!!! 😱😱😱 I always want to learn from the master! Ooooh!! Thank you very very much!!!!

Very helpfull thanks
woww u make it look so easy >_
It took a while to make it look easy haha but thank youuu I appreciate it!
That's right
I always wonder if I'm completely square this helped a lot thank you
I do cheer and I do a split in a stunt so this is really Important thank you
The type of the split can be absolutely different for everyone. It depends on what for do you need it. If you compare gymnastics, ballet and yoga split you will see totally different shapes and the only thing which unite them all is 180 degrees from one leg to another one😉 And I do professional pole dance for example:) For us pole dancers it's not that much important, because we bend our bodies in super crazy shapes time to time, perfectly to use both kind of splits 😁 and just to repeat all tricks for both sides 🙃🙃
Yeah thank you for sharing this with me 16.9.21.
U da bess!!!
More like this please
I'm a self-dancer. I tought my self hip hop when I was 3 yrs old. I'm now into both gymnastics and hip hop. I used to do twisted splits. But I do square splits now...and this makes so much more sence bc I saw on all her dance video's that she us doing square splits...and I never knew why...but no I do. Thanks so much!! Appreciate it!!💜💜
Eleanor you are so Talented you🥰😍😘😇
I do dance and my teachers say spilt are everything witch is true so I am glad that I have all my spilts
This helped me know if I do square splits
( but thank god I was doing it right 😭 ✋)
Excellent video, thank you so much for sharing this, do you have any advice for the rear leg? I've been stuck for about a year in a pretty similar position like the one you show at 2:56, the calf of my front leg touches the floor but my thigh doesn't.

Omg ikr! Same thing here and its so frustrating , like I am so close but I cant do itttt
This is extremely interesting. In spite of the fact that I can do the splits, I never knew there are 2 types.
Sou sua fã Elena 🇧🇷
Awesome tutorial! Also, if you can check if you’re doing it square by putting a barbie doll into the splits. She’s incapable of doing any other splits. Only square. 💗
応援してるよ！
Hi! When I try to do square splits, my front toe always ends up being turned in. Do you know how to fix this? Thanks (I will understand if you don't reply).
Im going to try the split of this video and Im really close to the middle split and the square split and I have never been to gymnastics before and I'm my friend at school she always puts me and say I'm almost there and I really want to do the full splits 👍☺️
Omg her personality is soo cute

So flexible
I love gymnastics when I was just 10 and still I can do it but I someone to teach me more
Wow your good at coaching
Can you make a Video, how to do a handstand ? 🙈❤️
Elena how were you able to stretch for square splits I have been trying to have square splits but it's just to hard and it hurts,can make a follow along video
I adore you
That smile
New Sub!
elena: you have to do the square splits
me: *doing the twisted splits for years*
😂
Always remember, you have a GREAT SIDE and a GOOD SIDE. Not good and bad.
I love all your videos. And I could almost not tell the difference between you and your sister.
I have a Baton So this is perfect
Is there a deduction for unsquare hips in RG? For example, Aleksandra Soldatova had super impressive flexibility, but her back leg was often going out to the side in ring position, for example.
I love rhythmic gymnastics can you teach me❤❤l
I think my bad leg for splits is squared but following what you showed it should make it better you should do a whole routine for square splits!!!!
Nice👍👍😘🥰
