Begintermediate Workshop

Ideal for those who can kick up but want to improve balance and hold time.

This workshop bridges the gap between beginners and intermediate handstanders. It’s ideal for those who have mastered kicking up to the wall and feel comfortable in a chest-to-wall position.

We’ll start with a full-body warm-up to activate and prepare your muscles, followed by stretches to improve mobility and reduce the risk of injury. From there, you’ll learn:

Here’s what we’ll cover:

• Refining Your Chest-to-Wall Position: Building strength and learning advanced drills to improve balance while maintaining alignment.
• Learning to Balance: Techniques for finding balance in both chest-to-wall and back-to-wall positions, helping you feel more confident and in control.
• Falling with Confidence: Practicing safe exits through cartwheeling so you can move forward without fear of falling.
• Kicking Up Away from the Wall: Developing the technique and confidence to kick up and begin holding a handstand without wall support.

This session is designed to help you progress toward freestanding balance while solidifying key skills at the wall.

Intermediate Workshop
2:00 PM – 5:00 PM

This workshop is for those with a solid chest-to-wall handstand and the ability to kick up confidently away from the wall. It’s all about refining your skills and exploring new handstand techniques.

What to expect:

• Perfecting Alignment: Fine-tuning your straight-line handstand for maximum control and balance.
• Exploring Shapes and Variations: Learning how to transition into and hold different shapes, including straddles and tuck
• Entry Techniques: Practicing various ways to enter your handstand, such as tuck and straddle jump.

Whether you’re looking to enhance your control, improve your technique, or add new dimensions to your practice, this workshop will push you toward achieving your handstand goals.
