Focus - Wrist & Shoulder Warm-up & Strength

To kick off we will learn about the art of balancing in our hands, and the importance of preparation to avoid injuries.

We will focus on bulletproofing our wrists with mobility & flexibility drills and start to build strength in our shoulders.

Focus - Core strengthening & hollow body

Our second class is all about understanding the importance of the core when being upside down.

The core is not just the abdomen, but the whole trunk muscles play a role in maintaining our balance while in a handstand.

Focus - Shoulder Active Mobility + Wall Handstand

In this class, we will learn the importance of our shoulder mobility when it comes to having a straight line, as well as how much energy we spend while in handstand.

We will work on a variety of drills to help you improve your shoulder mobility.

Focus - Pike Flexibility + Wall Handstand

Just as our shoulder mobility is important while being in a handstand, having a decent forward fold will make all the difference when kicking into handstand and when playing with shapes while upsidedown.

In this class, we will focus heavily on opening our hamstrings and unlocking our hips to make our handstand journey easier and more enjoyable.

Focus - Crow, Headstand Balance + Wall Handstand

We start introducing basic hand balancing concepts in positions like crow and headstand to train your body's muscle memory as well as build strength and endurance.

We will combine this with strength bodyweight training & shoulder mobility drills.

Focus - Moving off the wall with the fingers

It's time to start getting off the wall.

We will learn to use our fingers to shift our weight, instead of moving the legs.

Focus - Handstand Kicks + Hold

This class is all about reinforcing what we learned in the previous 2 weeks and starting to get a few seconds of balance when we kick.

We will also work on building our static holds and letting go of the wall.

Focus - Single Shape Holds

After having learned how to kick into a handstand and having trained to balance with little help from the wall, during this class, we will start to hold our handstand in shapes like the tuck, straddle & straight handstand.
