Description

Class Experience

This will be an active class. Every lesson students will need an efficient amount of floor space to exercise in a variety of movements with the class. With a focus on handstand technique, stacking and strength we will go through a variety of dynamic exercises and activities. Learners will develop better bodily awareness, confidence being upside-down as well as improve coordination. 

This class is open to beginners, intermediate and even advanced learners as the drills we practice are...

Learners will become more confident putting their weight on their hands and being upside-down.
Learners will understand what stacking is and its importance in a handstand.
Learners will gain physical coordination and strength specific to handstands.

There will be no homework however practicing drills 3-5 times a week show the best results!

35 minutes per week in class, and maybe some time outside of class.

This class is appropriate for young learners. A soft surface is recommended as we will be using the floor at times, as well as an open space to reduce risk of injury. If a student is tired they are always welcome to take a break. I will be watching and correcting mistakes as well as demonstrating safe execution of exercises before attempting. Proper footwear should be worn or bare-feet to reduce any slipping. Students are encourage to have a water bottle nearby. We will warm up our muscles at the beginning of class with some movements. Injuries can occur if not properly supervised.
