In this class, students will learn how to do a basic headstand. We will do a proper warm-up to ensure the safety of the neck, spine, and arms. We will then slowly work our way into into balancing on our heads by first learning "tripods", or balancing on our heads with our knees resting on our elbows. We will then do ab exercises to strengthen and prepare to lift our legs straight into the air out of our tripods. If your student(s) does not get the headstand perfectly in this class, that is okay! I will assign homework for your child to do to strengthen their bodies and sense of balance.
Learning Goals
The goal of this class is to learn how to balance on one's head while keeping one's hands on the ground. We will progress through a tripod (knees resting on elbows) to a full headstand (legs straight up in the air).Other Details
Parental Guidance
To take this class, a student MUST have a soft surface to do the headstand on- preferably a yoga or tumbling mat, but carpet is all right as well. Absolutely no hard floors. The student must have an open space to practice on so that they do not bump into anything if they fall out of a headstand. The child must also be barefoot and wear form-fitting clothes- nothing too loose. Parents must also supervise their student throughout the duration of the class to ensure the child is not pushing themselves too hard or risking injury.
