How long does it take to learn to do the splits?

I really want to learn to do the splits both ways preferably. I am currently practising everyday. But is there a certain way to learn quickly? If that makes sense? Any tips!How long does it take to learn to do the splits?
i know when i was trying to learn i just typed in 'how to do the splits' into google and it gave me a whole load of exercises too stretch....i couldnt do it......cos i am no way flexible enough!!How long does it take to learn to do the splits?
i learned my split in about a week. any moment you got sit on the floor will your legs in a straddle and try getting your nose to your knee on both legs, if you are just watching tv sit down and stretch your legs. practice as much as you can just getting as far as you can into the split position as far as you can go nad hold it there for about 30 seconds. it does hurt but its making your muscles more flexible. do this at least 5 times a day. if your bored just stretch and practice. you will get it.
It's not really about learning to do. It's got more to do with increasing your suppleness. This can take a long time, but if you keep practicing it will happen. There's no quick fix. Sorry.
go ice skating you will do it in two minutes
