vertical leap development for flips, twist, etc.

I've been wanting to learn tumbling and tricking, but don't really have the proper vertical leap for it. Any suggestions on how to get started? I've been practicing back tucks and using my friend as a spotter.

lotus and abductor stretch (stiffness)

I can do a full lotus but I have to always have to do other stretches prior to the actual lotus stretch. My knees are always stiff and I can't push them all the way down. It's been 3-4 months since it's been like that. Also for the abductor stretch (the similar to lotus but the palms of your feet ar...

horsestance, how many times

For a beginner what would be a good amount of times to do horsestance (in a day or week)? Are these the only things you need to do for side splits (besides the split stretch itself)? thanks in advance

As for the front splits my front legs don't exactly reach 180 degrees, does that mean I could never do front splits? I've just recently started...
