Road to Handstand | 04 - Inversion Awareness: The Headstand

*No Music*

In this dynamic and challenging class, we will focus on creating the right foundations for achieving a handstand. The handstand requires not only strength and balance but also flexibility and body awareness. This class is specifically designed to prepare you for the handstand by focusing on the headstand.

We will begin with a holistic warm-up to activate your muscles and prepare your body for the upcoming exercises. Then, we will dive into various headstand techniques. The headstand is an excellent exercise for developing an understanding of inverting the body and enhancing alignment awareness.

Throughout the class, we will work on building your strength to provide the necessary stability for a handstand. Through targeted exercises, we will strengthen your arms, shoulders, and core muscles to support you in holding a handstand.

Additionally, we will improve your flexibility. Good shoulder, hip, and leg flexibility are crucial for a successful handstand. With specific stretching sequences and exercises, we will promote your mobility.

Whether you have prior experience with headstands or are just starting out, this class is suitable for all levels. Although it would be good if you had practiced the prior classes of this program!

I’d like to encourage you to join or stay with me on this exciting journey towards achieving the handstand!
