How to do the 6 O'Clock Partner Stretch. By: Just For Kix

[RandomGyrl11]

im learning how to do a 6 oclock but rite now im at 4:15 smh

[angelrunningdeer]

@RandomGyrl11 lol

[jabb123abc123]

owwww stop it this hurts and its KINDA PERVERTED

[CrazyKitten2047]

How long should it take to do this?

[HSSS8949]

@CrazyKitten2047 its depends on if your in your splits or not. it makes it alot easier to get your 6 O' clock if you have your oversplits

[RunxDevilxRun]

there is no specific naame for this, guys. so stop.

[angelrunningdeer]

@RunxDevilxRun yes there is otherwise we'd just call it the "stand on one leg with your other straight in the air like your doing the front splits but have both hands on the grond or holding the base leg" so we named it.

[destinyanryleighblog]

I can do a 615

[TheTheDanceMusic]

i can do a 4'oclock llol well 4:45

[xodancestar212]

these are called candlesticks..

[Purelleslovexss]

@xodancestar212 no their not their called needles :)

[neonunicorns1]

i can be the one holding the girl doing the excerse

[g0elephant]

@neonunicorns1

lmao me too

[jessiaxo24]

we call these pencils

[sarahnoel101]

how long does it take to be able to do that?? like years of dance??

[amysayshola]

@sarahnoel101 it took me about a month

[lopilatoluisana]

at 0:22 her face is turning red! ahahaha

[angel765438]

Whats weird is i can put my foot behind my head,,,, but i cant do the splits.....

[dancagirl1998]

@angel765438 It is because you are more flexible in a different muscle than the muscle that you use for the splits. I am not able to put my foot behind my head but I can do my right and left splits... Does that make more sense.? :)

[angel765438]

@dancagirl1998 Ik.... XD thanks though =) Very helpful

[Hollister23012]

what muscles are key to be able to fully hit a 6 O'clock?

[fallinloveromance]

this is a good idea. i will looking for a partner :)

[extremesfeelingxD]

eeer.... i can do a 1:30 ... :D

[lad33luvv8u6]

i can do it

[Lauriefishbone]

I can do a 6:10

[fudanchu]

Wish I could do that. This has inspired me to go stretch right now!

[polishbloo]

Do you have to do the oversplits to be able to do this?

[Krissyrocks92]

@polishbloo if you're trying to achieve a full 6 o'clock, having your oversplits makes it easier but you don't have to start out with a perfect line. get your leg up as far as you can and have someone stretch it and in time you'll achieve the 6 o'clock :)

[Lovelylady42582]

ummmm holy crap....thats all i have to say lol

[GeneralSkaar]

What sort of stretch is useful if you can only do like... a 3 o'clock?

[Reetal00]

simply do this against the wall -.-

from where would i get a partner -.-

[KalexCullen]

or on a wall

[misslollyholly9]

i finally learned how to do it without a partner!!! i do it on the wall to practice...thanks a lot!!! :)

[diamondbunny100]

her 6 o'clock was beautiful!!

[aashyy]

I'm sure it's a great stretch..if you're that flexible! (:

[OpticalIllusion1992]

Holy this is intense

[GeekstaBaby99]

[jokesterjenna]

This is funn [;

[Buscles]

[ChLo0oex]

[PLAIDisH0Txx]

illusion?

[DANCEROXZ12]

its called an illusion

[dance452]

this is not an illusion???? this is an 6 o clock.....illsions have a spin

[spencer7812]

if its what im thinking of its called an illusion

[thatDANCERgirl72]

@spencer7812 and illusion is just that but turning...if that makes sense...but that its self is a needle or 6 o'clock

[shelleyjellyBANG]

gawdd so this is where our leader got this idea! haha we did this last week

[volpe60610]

Holy cow! I can do split on the floor but that looks increadibly painful! ouch...

[skadoodlebop14]

we call these needles

[hermionefan3]

We call them needles too...

[iLoveNickJonas2121]

me too

[shaybear222]

i do that but i can get over splits! =D

[4dancingal]

it doesnt really hurt that bad. i practice is where i do it like that, but my back is against the wall for more staility, and a friend pushes my leg up

[DaNcEbAbE015]

ow...

[lopito37]

well, any time similar to vertical line, its accepted, always control and very important, DISCIPLINE.

[rockongirl101]

at my studio it is called a pitch

[rubberduc040562]

you can do the against a wall so the back of your leg on the floor is against the wall

[Tad5958]

I can't do it on a wall i need someone to pull my leg in order to go into the 6 O'clock

[xoxoserenity]

owch

[xparamorepandas]

ahaha i can do a 5:45!!!

[msGoldendanc3r08]

l0l..girl u almost there,why 5:45?

[xparamorepandas]

well my leg is not ALL the way there yet! but im ALMOST that why 5:45

[JBTwilightgirlx3]

im gonna try that; i need help with tat

[gswaggachic]

thats craziii i wanna do that

[P1PandaPandaXpress]

i've done this for a solo 4 times and i've done it like this by myself. it would've been a hell of a lot easier with a partner though hah! good job!

[ilovejonasbrothers63]

that looks really painful!

[BlondeDancer875]

this helps with splits, kicks leaps and leg extensions. I do this with my friend a lot and it really helps!

[areumdaunbxtch]

this video really helps !

could you make a video for leg stretches when pulling the leg behind you like and aerbesque?

[Pixilove]

If you don't have a partner, try doing it against a wall, it helped me do it (y)

[proflexstretch]

Having a partner is the best method for sure, but if you don't, try the proflex stretch. You can also measure your flexibility when using it.

[jjbbrr66]

rele flexible now i kno wat strech i can do wit ma other ballet friends

[badj101]

i looooove it! haha

nice exercises!

i thought that the best practise to do a penchee is to practice the over splits...

this is such a great alternative stretching...

what if i don't have a partner?

what is the best way to practice 6 O'clock stretching alone?

[MandT4eva]

do it against an open wall!!

[mintyturtles94]

use a doorway

[msGoldendanc3r08]

and a wall.l0l..

[ilovbradd]

that's a lovely stretch!!

[fashionballetNYC]

Woah, thats crazy!

[meganelizabethhhh]

[OxAlice12]

That is really helpful

[CorbinIsTheBest]

[dancegirl11969]

thank you!

[dancegirl11969]

can that also be called a needle?

[stormcheeer]

i know in cheer it's called a needle but i don't know about dance lol :)

[keepxdancingx]

in dance its called a penchee. :)

[CollieKisses]

It's typically called a needle.

I've gone to places that call it a pencil too though.
