Most of you have probably noticed that until now, the handbalancers I’ve mainly featured came from either circus, or the general movement field. So today I’m happy to present an interview that shines a light on a different perspective. I had the honor to talk to two very inspiring yoga teachers – Rama and Shakti, […]
The month of retreats is over! And boy, let me tell you. I surely do NOT recommend you to do several retreats with different teachers in a row. I have to be very honest here and let you know that I was kinda dreading to make a video. But that’s just the way it turned […]
Meet Miguel Sant’ana, the man who inspired me to start handbalancing. It was exactly one year ago that I was sitting at the beach in Tunesia on my honeymoon with Ivo. We just had left our amazing wedding behind us and were ready to start a new chapter together. We took a full week of […]
Since the major theme of this month has been attending handbalance retreats, I’ve decided to capture some insights and thoughts about each one to share my experiences. Most of the time these retreats cost quite some money and it has helped me for sure to hear somebody elses opinion before commiting my time and ressources. […]

I consider myself very fortunate to be able to travel and meet handbalancers I admire. This one in particular was very special though. Not only does he speak german, like me. But also he is one of the best handbalancers I know. I got to work with him and I got to experience that he’s […]
Todays episode is about a very common misconception about handstands. I hear or see it all the time, especially around beginners. – “I’m sure I need a lot of core strength to hold a handstand” – Nope, you don’t… and here is why. Your stability and ability to make balance corrections comes mainly from the […]
Open the curtains for part two of my awesome visit with the Lee brothers! This time Morgan and I talked a little bit about his experience and what they’ll be up to next, after having reached such a high level in such a short amount of time. As Josh already said in our interview last […]
Last week was one of the best ones since we started our worldtrip in June 2018. We visited the Lee brothers in Santa Rosa and had a couple of days full of handstands and play action. And of course as always, there was some super interesting talk about handstands. In this interview here I tried […]
