Stretches, methods, drills, & exercises to master the KICKUP NEEDLE - Straight Leg Scorpion with no frills, arabesque-kick straight in.
Subscribe for more flexibility tutorials, exercise/fitness tips, stretch routines, and workouts!
A Kick Up Needle Tutorial was SO highly requested on my channel -and I finally got the chance to make it! A lot of time & love went into filming & editing this tutorial, let me know what you think of my new edits / editing style!
Make sure you stretch your Legs, Back, Shoulders, and Arms really well! Stretch out splits, oversplits (hyperextended splits), straddle, middle splits, lunges, pikes, backbends, and regular dorito scorpions.
The 3 methods I teach - scale (dancer pose), dorito-spike, and the pacman-aerial-arabesque-penche method (straight in). Try them all, see what works best for you!
Also, some of my overlays are from JanTube & Glimmer Girl, check them out!
I teach new skills every week here on my YouTube channel - think of me as your cheer coach, personal trainer, dance teacher, gymnastics instructor...no matter what sport you do, what level you are...you'll LOVE my exercise routines, stretch tutorials, and fitness tips!
Outfit is from MYX COUTURE - they make and design fabulous, homemade dancewear, cheer/gymnastics practice gear, costumes, athletic/activewear, and custom outfits too! Everything is sourced & made in the USA with high quality, breathable fabrics.
