Glute Stretches for the Martial Arts

Here are a variety of glute stretches used by martial arts students. Glutes are your gluteal muscles (or butt muscles). These muscles are used during martial arts activities such as kicking and jumping techniques.

All stretches and exercises should be supervised by a trained martial arts instructor in order to prevent injuries and to ensure the proper technique is utilized. If you have had an injury or are in pain, please see a doctor before starting any stretching or exercise program. For additional martial arts stretches targeting other areas of the body, please visit the main Martial Arts Stretches page.
