Stretch after a workout, instead of before. You can do a light stretch after a warmup, but save the serious stretching for after the workout.

And stretch daily. It should be versatile, so don't forget to stretch as many way as possible. And safely!! :)

Try Yoga!!! it really complements Martial Arts flexibility

Depends on what MA you want to be

Being a MA is not being able to do everything in the land

If you do Karate or Tae-Kwondo Flexibility is ideal

Aikido or wing chun kung fu you don't need it

I disagree. A level of flexibility is important to prevent injuries, no matter what MA one is doing. I do agree that doing the splits isn't likely as beneficial for an Aikidoka as it is for a high kicker in TKD, but it is still important, and won't hurt an Aikidoka at all.
