This helps a bunch. I'm a yellow belt and I want to become very flexible as possible and make my Master proud by working hard and becoming the best student as I can be.
Lol destiny
Laila Bridges Haha it's true. I've gotten more flexible because of Taekwondo.
Destiny Musgrove Lol i got flexible from kung fu and i thought it was so impossable for me to do what i can do now xD
Destiny Musgrove same
Destiny Musgrove you have a master?
I was never flexible as a tall guy, but after this I can make a half split(still need alot of working). thankyou!
That's great! Congratulations :)
A lot of people keep asking about the frequency of training stretching so check this out for my opinions and experiences :)

GingerNinjaTrickster hello Sir I started taekwondo when I was 15 with very little
flexibility and I remenber that one day a korean black belt told me to
do the butterfly stance and then he pushed my back down with all his body
weight while holding my feet for about two minits, I was in pain and
almost criying but he laugthed and kept doing it. I have to admit that
it did help me. Is it ok if I ask my brother to do it?
Giancarlo Torres I wouldn't recommend that as forcing too much can cause damage/tears to your muscles.

Thank you :) Improving flexibility is achievable at an older age but it takes more time and dedication to do so. If people struggle with any of these stretches they can simplify them by closing their legs more, reaching down to the shin/ankle instead, etc. Hope that helps and good luck with your training :)
Thank you Aaron for producing this vid. I've been a martial artist all my life and at one time had good kicking ability. However, having cancer four and a half years ago really took it out it out of me. I couldn't do any form of training for over a year, so everything just locked up. However, over the past six months I have been training to get fit and now with the help of your stretching routine I'm starting to get some flexibility back, really hoping to box and side splits in the next 3-4 months. I'm 53, so don't give up it's never too late.
Thank you again Aaron
+Andy Johnson Man, i'm sorry to hear about your struggles but i'm glad you are feeling better and enjoying yourself again. Glad I could help and good luck with your goals :)
+GingerNinjaTrickster Thanks for replying, I'm making progress on a weekly basis, I incorporate your routine into my daily training. thanks again for providing the vid and the others.
Andy Johnson No problem and keep it up :)
Well done mate
Andy Johnson sorry to hear mate. Its great to hear that you have made progress in getting fit and limber again.
Knowing that you started when you were 15 and still managed to become THAT flexible somehow gives me hope, since I started last year at the age of 15 too -and I'm struggling to do a decent split-
Anyway thank you so much for all the vids, they're amazing and your way to explain things is too, you're such a great teacher! :D
That's great and I appreciate you saying that. Thank you :)
GingerNinjaTrickster Question, how long does it take for a person to be able to do a full split. i stretch twice daily and i'm 14
dhgdshfshfhsghghrygihuhrfkhfkuhrfui Everyone is different so there is no set amount of time.
Ah, thanks :D
GingerNinjaTrickster

I just found out about you within the past few weeks and started binge watching your tutorials. I can tell by you're videos that you're a phenomenal teacher. You helped me improve my hook kick and I've been working on the spinning version. Tonight I started working on my tornado kick (not bad for a green belt, eh?). Thank you for taking the time to spread your knowledge to all of us and being such an inspiration!
I am currently training for my black belt 1st dan in Taekwondo and these stretches are helping me so much and it allows me to (sortof) fully perfect my flying side kick.
Thankyou Very much
I wish that I could be your student, you are great! :D
3 words: God Bless You :) Just keep up with you're videos because its a source of inspiration and hope for me :) thanks
I appreciate you saying that. Thank you :)
I'm truly amazed... After preforming this routine for about 3 weeks (5 times per week), I've already seen noticeable improvements in my flexibility. Just want to say, I have a lot of respect and appreciation for the quality work that you do, bro. Also, your channel is definitely my favorite on TH-cam. Thank you, I'm very grateful. :)
I'm 24, going to 25 this March, and i'm a Wushu Athlete, and these videos you made are very helpful! i will start doing your program. Thank you man!
Lol I'm an instructor at my Taekwondo school and i'm always looking for new ways to warm up the students lol. Some of these warm ups I had never thought of before.
***** Cool and have fun :)
What is meaning of lol?
@Python programmer I see you everywhere
@@pratimakushwaha4111 laugh out loud 😂
@@pratimakushwaha4111 its same as typing laugh emoji😂
8yrs ago i join tae kwon do for 4months, and i only can do full split for several time coz it's hurt. now, i can do full split but i can't hold it for longer. i do a minimum warming up coz i only have time at night around 8pm. i kicks for several time then i try to do split, but of course at first it won't full. this video remind me to the right stretching. thanks for sharing
That's great and I'm glad you think so. Good luck :)
Started watching this at white belt in 2013, still watching it now that I'm a first degree blackbelt in WTF Taekwondo. You rule Aaron :D
been looking for a video like this for a long time as my flexibility needs alot of work so hopefully this will do the trick!
Cool and good luck :)
hey, this helped me for dance as well as Taekwondo😉😉😉
+Dikrats SmugShark Cool :)
I'm 24 years old, and I'm just started to practice WTF. My body is not in the worst condition ever, I'm not starting from scratch. Still, long way to go. My master thinks, I'm doing it for fun... But I have an intention to surprise him. It's my dream, to take a picture of me, doing this high side kick. Well, if you're doing TKD, you know, what I'm talking about ;) Well, I have a long way to go, not even sure, if it's possible at all. But I'm going to try. Thanks a lot for your help on these. I love TKD, no matter, is it ITF or WTF. Both is cool
+Demka03 No problem and good luck with your goal :)
I've had lot's of good stretches in my head for some time, and you give very good tips in this video to top everything off!
That's great and i'm glad you thought so :)
I am a Cho Dan Bo in Taekwondo (the belt before black belt) and I started when I was around 7 or 8 and it has taken me around three years. I am a black belt next term!!! I'm so excited.
i finally kicks high
thanks..
taekwon!!
ur the best ginger
+Harvey Newman Far from that but thank you for your support :)
It's true and it epic at taekwondo
Your epic at taekwondo*
Harvey Newman Thanks :)
HELLO Aaron, thank you for your generosity and posting the video.
you have done a fantastic job. Very much appreciated.
Da Ju No problem and I appreciate you saying that. Thank you :)
NIce, thanks for posting this. I've seen a lot of improvement in my kick height and power, but this will help tremendously in increasing my hip flexibility. Now you need to do a back flexibility focus.
sir now i am very flexible so thank u so much..
Awesome and No problem :)
If we follow this video, can we do high kick? In how many months?

Ginger, you're awesome.
A.D. Wells I appreciate you saying that. Thank you :)
I heard people sleeping in a butterfly stretch, will that help? (Yes, I am lazy :P)
Wheather I stretch my hips are normally tight even after I have stretched with this routine for over 9 months now and I can't kick high
***** No problem :)
Great video! I'm watching it almost everyday and practicing. I'm tall so stretching is very important to my health.
You honesty and humble way of describing these techniques is very inspirational! Very good video and youve def given me alot more to think about during my stretching routine!
Thanks and keep up the good work!
I appreciate you saying that. Thank you :) I will do my best to and good luck with your training :)
Ginger still looks like hes 16 but kicks ass like he 30 way to go bro
+Paul Smith Haha Thanks man :)
+GingerNinjaTrickster Do you have any tips on spiritual refinement and mental strength and meditation if you do any sir ?
+GingerNinjaTrickster That should be a 5 minute video for the future maybe
Paul Smith I will add it to the list :)
It’s been 4 years more. Still, he looks just the same.
2:00 My roommate saw me watching this and was very confused
lol
What? Why? I didn’t get you?
Absolutely amazing and helpful, thank you Sir!
Thank you and No problem :)
This is great when i found this chanel i watched youre vids every day man good job
+dino dossett I appreciate your support. Thank you :)
2:09 - twerk twerk twerk! hahaa just kidding man, thanks for this helpful video! :D
lol No problem :)
A Hernandez lol
I'm 16 and not really flexible at all. Will I eventually get alot more flexible if I do stretches daily? (My main aim is to easily kick to most peoples head height level), also great work I love your videos gnt :)
we have the same problem
+Jxvr Yes you will eventually get more flexible. Flexibility is one of those things that you can always improve throughout your life no matter how old or young you are. It works like muscles. the more weights you lift the stronger you get. the more you bend your legs the bendier they will get.
+Allen Ayler
Hey Allen, I'm 53 and after coming back from cancer I can do martial arts kicking to a good standard, for me it the small improvement that you don't really notice but after six months you realise that you are kicking higher and with greater skill. Wish I was 35 again..
Jxvr yes you will become more flexible, do it while your still 16 though,
@@slabooboo521 im 17, is it too late?😂
No but fr its really hard, i stretch occasionally and i do notice differences but nowhere near what i want.
I recently managed to throw good midkicks with my right leg, just my left leg now.
Loving your channel mate, keep up the good work!
I appreciate you saying that and I will do my best to :)
Once again, great video. Well done GingerNinjaTrickster.
I appreciate you saying that. Thank you :)
Perfect!!
Dislikes on this kind if vids show the negativity of minds. Dont mind em.
Thank you for your support :)
Some people just dis-like everything, kinda sad they go through life that way, I ront bad days, they make the good ones even better,
I lose all my energy and time Now i have to start all over again.
This video is so helpful,love these exercises!
Just dowloaded your vid! Best stretches i've seen so far!
5:48 ah yes here you will see the wild ginger ninja in his natural habitat the dojo. What a magnificent creature!
will this tutorial help me to get perfect splits?
Definitely! Just stretch with good form and be consistent. Good luck :)
I always wanted to learn how to achieve this, thank you! Now I will achieve a high level jutsu which allow me to become more deadlier and efficient!
This is amazing. Thank u. Very helpful
Stretching is easier when you have no soul to get in the way.
LOL
Ginger Ninja Trickster Hi , I have question ; I practice Karate Shotokan 26 years and 5 years ego I was running and I break ACL in my right knee. Now I'm scare to do Kicks when I'm jomp. Can I do It ??
Nice Video !!!
69 likes... I'm was gonna like but i don't wanna ruin it
Aww *lol* WHY do they say that anyway?!
Aaron is like the main character from the Dark Souls games; he absorbs the souls of his defeated enemies.
How long would you say it has taken you to get to your black belt
It usually takes 4 years or more.
That's great :)
GingerNinjaTrickster It took you 4 years? Dang. That's really a lot of hard work.
The time helps your technique and mentality mature so you become an all round better student/instructor :)
I’m a beginner Kyokushin practitioner from the states. Thank you so much for this video!
I've had about 5 streching sessions using your method & it's helping so much! I have big dreams in the mma world & this helps me alot. I feel more flexible and even people see a difference. Just wanna thank you Ginger!
I'm glad it is helping and that's great! Good luck :)
Now I'm depressed. I'm so stiff I can't even do beginner exercices.
You can simplify the stretches until you progress to the further stages. ie. reach for shin or ankle instead of holding your foot :)
don't be so depressed. all you need to do is to take some anti depressants like coffee or coke or a cup of tea. then to fully attain your goal as to fully do the split, easy and quick. follow these simple procedures...you will need ten wheeler trucks atleast two, if you wanna stretch that thing hanging in between you will need three. but for now lets concentrate on your feet. first set the two trucks facing their backs, leave some space for you in between them. then tie each leg on each truck. then make a signal to get the trucks going. in just a second you will be able to do the split. but tell the drivers not to go too far coz it might split you into halves. anyway, i can feel that you are half a man, and it's like you're trying to get the attention of our ninja guy here. you know what i mean. ill keep my mouth shut.
I know that this is not my video but i have an important abise when you start an streching exersize don't stop trust me i was doing streching for 2 week then i got tired and i stop doing streching one week
Wow I remember watching your channel when I was 13 first starting martial arts! I'm almost 18 and taking my brown belt grading on New Years and I've again taken tips from you
i stopped on taekwondo 7 months ago and now im going to have a battle again i should stretch like a beginner and this tutorial helps thanks :D
I'm glad it helped and good luck :)
2:08 twerk twerk hahaha
+JJ Junior Haha
If that's the basic I need to know the pre basic steps
Basic and progression. Simplify each one to your ability ie. If you can't reach your toes, grab your shin, ankle or reach for them. Good luck :)
Thanks here goes day 1
No problem and good luck again :)
I loved this thank you for sharing!
This is insane. Thank you!
2:08 that's my dance

Shadrack Midenyo lol

Awesome Aaron Gassor,thanks again for your tutor and I will try it.
No problem and good luck :)
I'm fifteen do you think I can start now
+Gabbie Mateus absolutely no reason why not
so..... did you start
I know it's not the same but I do judo and people come in in their 30s, 40s, once or twice people have come in in their 50s so no, I'd say 15 is quite young.
+Hannah Evans I'm 11 and I'm already senior yellow belt in taekwondo orange in karate do and I do samurai too I defeated blackbelt era in taekwondo I'm just senior yellow belt
U ca do it I'm just 11 if your 15 my classmate in taekwondo is four and he's a senior yellow belter and now his a blue belter I'm just a senior yellow belter I defeated black belters so I know u can do it so keep it up believe in yourself
I follow you on here and just wanted to say you inspired me to get back into the arts.i stopped originally cause life's setbacks got the best of me but I'm re energized and the flame is lit so thank you for the inspiration my brother peace & blessings to you
I'm glad you feel that way and good luck with your training :)
Thanks so much man! I have horrible flexibility and I'm starting an MMA summer course soon. This will help.
No problem and good luck with the course :)

Very useful thank you so much mate!

Nice video, well explained on basic and advance stretching. Your tutorial has helped my kicks and flexibility improve so thanks again. Train hard and stay safe.
I'm glad you liked the video and that it helped :) Thank you for your support and you too :)
Aaron - As a newcomer to Taekwondo I'm am getting massive mileage out of using your videos to consolidate what I'm being taught in class. Engaging, easy to follow, totally inspiring. Keep up the good work.
Awesome and Thank you for your support :)
This is almost what I do in my taekwondo class, and it does help out a lot.
Awesome! :)
Aaron, I have always been highly flexible, and struggle to get much of a stretch from most of the exercises we do, and I had never seen an advanced figure 4/hurdle stretch before. These are some great stretches, and I'll be checking your other videos. Thanks! :)
I'm glad you think so and I appreciate your support. Thank you :)
Thank you ! I will start this routine every morning and before training, hope I can make it to that split and my kicks improve :)
No problem and good luck :)
Wow this helps a lot. I often do this outside of my martial arts classes. THANKS!
I'm glad it does :) No problem and good luck :)
GingerNinjaTrickster
Thank you for this video. I am just starting out TKD, 30 years old, and very inflexible so I cannot wait to slowly work on this.
No problem and that's great! Good luck :)
GingerNinjaTrickster does this work for other martial arts because i do multiple style of karate
Ross Curley Yea it sure does :)
I just got my yellow belt in kickboxing, I like following along with this video at home so I can become more flexible . It is very helpful thank you :)
Thanks for the video. I will keep practicing until I master the splits. Praying for you🙏
You make it look so easy :) great video.
It gets easier with practice and i'm glad you liked it :)
Thanks a lot !!!! Now im ready for my tournament !!!! :)
Fenix Fénix No problem and I hope it went/or goes well :)

+Đăng Dương No problem and cool :)
That was really really helpful. :-)
Thanks for the video. Is been 15 years since I last did taekwond. This is a good way for me to get my flexibility back.
+Skyo Su No problem and good luck :)
Nice video. I used to practice taekwondo like 5 years ago but stopped right before I got my black belt. I could easily do split back then but because I was too lazy to stretch and practice, my body is as stiff as rock now, geez. And now I'm going to continue practicing and your videos help me a lot, really. Thank you very much for that :)
I'm glad you liked the video. That's a shame but good luck with your progression now :)
I really like all your video’s
Thx for great videos !
im a former boxer, who is now a mma fighter

No problem and i'm glad it has :)
I also do Taekwondo competitions and I got a silver this year for my first time. It is so fun!
This has helped me great tips 10 years ago I could do the splits was in kenpo karate put wait on lost the wait and kept it off for 3 years now weight lifting and changing my lifestyle, but was stiff now getting limber again and I am 51 years old. and now a fan of your videos, Thanks!!!!
John Handbury I'm glad it has helped! Thank you for your support and good luck :)
