martial arts should help you limber up, take a self defense class until then, and try stretching for a 1/2 hours 3 of 4 times a day.
yoga, good luckk :]
You might want to try Yoga. For splits- do a split- and while still in the split sit down gently, keeping legs apart lift one of your legs and cross it over the other one- following it with the rest of your body, you’ll end up facing the other way still in a split and your hands on the floor in front of you, go down as far as you can in the split, then repeat. You need a good bit of space for this- in the yard probably. Basically, you just keep rolling , staying in a split and going down a little more each time. This was amazingly comfortable for me to do and achieve both a side and front split.
