stretch everyday and then kneel on your back leg with your front leg out in front of you straight. then slide you're front foot forwards. box splits: jump onto your feet with them out to each side and then slide down. kneel on your elbows and don't let your bum stick out so if it does push it forwards. also make sure your knees are straight. when you can get right down into box splits putyour arms out to the sides and your belly on the floor. stretches such as touching toes with legs together and straight will help improve your flexibility. you can do this satdown or stood up or both.
