This workshop is for beginners as well as for those of you who already can do a handstand but it’s not perfect and you would like to make it (closer to) perfect! ?
Learning how to do a handstand is a process of discovering your own potential, gaining confidence and overcoming your internal barriers. Regardless of whether you never did a handstand in your life or maybe you are already well oriented in this acrobatic trick, you will certainly gain a valuable experience during this workshop. I will give you helpful tools and share my knowledge about handstands so that you will have the skills and courage needed for practicing the art of balancing on your hands.
Workshop I – ABC of handstands – Saturday 21st September (3h) 13:00-16:00
We will work on alignment, proper work of the shoulder girdle, discovering the basic principles of handstands, so you can build confidence and increase your body awareness. You will learn exercises that will help you unite body and mind and create a solid foundation for standing on your hands. We will work both independently and in small groups, in an atmosphere full of support and mutual concern for safety, appropriate for all levels of practice.
Prerequisites to join: none, all levels welcome!
Workshop II – The elements of press handstand – Sunday 22nd September 11:00-12:45
An art of balancing while standing on your hands is difficult, but the art of entering handstand without or with a very subtle momentum is even more challenging. During this workshop you will wake up your muscles, increase an awareness of the body and – using props such as blocks, or blankets – you will try to put the first steps in the world press handstand.
Prerequisites to join: being able to enter handstand free/against the wall and hold it for ca 10 sec. Some handstand practice and being familiar with the idea of being upside down and balancing will be useful.
