Re: Episode3: Wrists

Thanks It's just the way I can do my practice. I could follow you every time I practice of course, but as I'm at a different level :lol: , it's easier to have it written out and do my own tempo and repetitions. But before continuing to the next episode, I always follow the video together with you to...

Re: Kick up

Hi Micmic, So brave of you to post a video! And very good that you started your handstand journey. I assume you do the course of Natalie? So I think she'll react and give you professional advise. Till then I can say something from my humble amature point of view (also still practising) To kick up wi...

Re: Episode 2: L-shape - hips above shoulders

Hi Natalie,
Oh, that shoulder opener! Haha, thanks. That's easier in between exercises. I'll do both ways (on feet/on hands) alternately. Makes the episode harder, but that's only good preparation!
Thanks from Katja

Re: Episode 2: L-shape - hips above shoulders

Hi Natalie, This is a great advice!!! Wow! I'll totally do this! After every exercise I'll stick a shoulder opener by standing (on my hands, belly to wall) in a diagonal against the wall. Never came up with that! Thanks for this. And haha, no, I don't plan to do one-arm handstands or so, I just want...

Re: Episode 2: L-shape - hips above shoulders

Hi Sara and Natalie, I read your discussion about tight shoulders. I've the same. When I stand upright with my back against a wall and lift my arms above my head and back, my arms won't touch the wall. With pulling the ribs under and activating the abs it's of course worse, but even with a banana-lu...

Exercises week 2, description

I did an attempt to note the exercises, because I can't do the whole thing yet. And to do less repeats or less time for training, it's easier for me to do this without the video. Perhaps someone also wrote it down? Otherwise, perhaps it's useful for other people as well? I noted it also there: https...
