In order to achieve or master these 2 invigorating skills, you need to strengthen and mobilise every part of your body. To do this, we have structured these classes loosely around monthly cycles. Join in at any time, but note the monthly structure.

• Week 1 Hips &  Hamstrings

You would be surprised how important hip and leg flexibility and strength are to nailing a handstand and learning press handstands. Strong hammies, glutes and quads also support backbends and their variations. This class aims to show you how to kick up into handstand with control and confidence (for beginners) or show you how strong hammies can enable you to press into handstand (for advanced)

• Week 2 – Back Strengthening

Whilst it’s obvious that a strong back will enable you to go deeper into your backbends and bridges, a strong back will also enable you to kick up into handstands confidently. The back strengthening drills will inform all the fun scorpion variations (beginners); or standing to bridge/ handstand to bridge skills

• Week 3 – Shoulder Strength

The shoulders and neck are the “hips” of a handstand… they are going to keep you stable upside down. And they need to be strong, and where they are positioned in the handstand has to be understood – whether you are just learning, or ready to free balance. This class directs the students towards competent kicking up in forearm balances and handstands (beginners); or jumping to handstands; and free balancing techniques (moore advanced) Those who have the confidence to support their handstand well with their shoulders and neck will be shown handstand to bridge and “hollow back” scorpion variations

• Week 4 – Core Strength

This class teaches you how to engage your core for smooth and controlled inversions. Planks; dish poses will be fine tuned … The core work will teach you how to go upside down without a “banana” back (for beginners); and how to float and press into handstands (more advanced)

• Week 5

If the month has a fifth week, we will either: summarise what has been covered over the other weeks focus on one of the areas we agree needs some work work on fun variations and whatever level you may be at.
