This first class will set the tone for respecting any of the fears we have around handstand no matter how silly they may seem. We will explore low to the ground hand balances to build strength and confidence before approaching the wall for the first time.

Building on class 1, in this class 2 we will explore headstand (and modifies versions if you’re not yet ready) to work on alignment in space once we go upside down.

Compression strength is an important skill to build in preparation for press work. In this flow we will focus on engaging through the deep core and hip flexors.

Drills are tough but great to proper into your handstand work to isolate areas of strength you want to improve on. This class has a few drills that you can come back to as and when you feel the need.

Now let’s talk about bringing it away from the wall...

Let’s revisit pressing in the simplest way- from headstand. We will then look at how to build this into your handstand. Pressing is like the holy grail of handstand work. It can take a very long time to achieve but this class will be one that you can come back to again and again as you progress.

Let’s put it all together in this full length handstand flow...
