Have you always wanted to do a handstand, but not sure where to start? Or maybe you can do a handstand but the balance is inconsistent or your form has room for improvement? Ulrik is teaching a two day handstand workshop in which you will learn the beautiful art of standing on your hands!

The goal for this workshop is for every participant to understand exactly what they need to practice on their own in order to take their current handstand practice to the next level, or get into a practice in the first place.

TOPICS COVERED:
- Understanding of the handstand practice
- Mobility for proper handstand alignment and efficiency
- How to balance
- How to kick-up into a handstand
- Relevant beginner handstand drills and exercises
- Individualized feedback and recommendations
- Summary and Q&A

WHO IS THIS FOR?
This workshop is best suited for you if you are inconsistent with a 10 seconds freestanding handstand, or want to improve your form and understanding of the practice. It’s totally fine if you start at a very basic level. Everyone has to start somewhere. There are no prereqs, but you need to be curious and interested in learning handstands.

About Ulrik

I am Ulrik, a 33 year old handbalancer from Norway. I started my handstand training when I was 21. I remember well how it was to be scared of climbing up the wall. How it was to kick-up and fall again and again. How it was to be stiff and weak.

Over my 12 years of training handbalancing I have felt most of the things you are feeling with your handstand practice now. The frustration of not progressing. The wrist pain from being too eager. And the heaviness on the shoulders. But most important: How to overcome this.

Since I discovered that handbalancing is a thing it's possible to learn, I have spent most days training and nerding it.

I worked 5 years as a personal trainer from 2012 and started to teach handstands through online coaching and workshops from around 2016. A few years later I quit my general trainer job to focus solely on teaching handstands which I have done since, and I love it! Being able to share the lessons I have learned to master this skill, and seeing how peoples faces light up when they progress gives me just as much joy as when I progress in the training myself, and that’s why I hope you’ll join my workshop. I am also a tall and big guy, who enjoys strength training as well as handbalancing and have learned how to combine these two training forms.
