While we were in Bali during the summer of 2019 we got to hang out with the crew of All Yoga. David Lertsin is the founder and has been running Yoga Teacher Trainings in Bali and Thailand for many years. One of the unique things about All Yoga is their integration of handbalance into their […]
I finally got Seline in front of the camera! I wanted to interview her back in Perth in December 2018 when we met for the first time. But she was way too humble. Seline and I started our handbalance journeys around the same time. Eversince we connected on Instagram she has been a huge source […]
Rhiannon Cave-Walker has been one of my biggest inspirations when it comes to where I want to go with my own handstands. Coming from a dance-background, I’ve always admired people who could integrate the skill into a more complex framework of movement other than just sanding still on hands. After meeting her in person I’m […]
Chris Carlos is so many things: Acrobat, Performer, Coach, Event Manager, Facilitator, Entrepreneur, … Before the Bali Handstand Retreat I hadn’t heard about him, since I was all about solo handstands and wasn’t as familiar with the Australian acro world. But when I got there and realized what an amazing person, teacher, and charismatic entrepreneur […]
As we were at the Bali Handstand Retreat, there were some professional performers attending as well and one of them was Ellen Grow. I had just come from my training in Kiev and when I met her she told me that she had spent 18 months at a circus school in Beijing, China. So we […]
Guys, I’ve been dying to show you this one. I think I don’t need to explain who Yulya Mihailova is, as she is probably the most famous female handbalancer and contortionist in the circus world and the world of social media. After meeting her husband, Andrii Bondarenko, I was determined to get to meet her […]
Damn, was I looking forward to meeting this girl, Mihaela Karkia! A few months back I saw one of her Instagram posts, where she was doing a pretty advanced sequence going down from a figa and pressing back up on one arm. I sent the post to my coach, Emmet Louis, with the hashtag lifegoals. […]
We are back! After a short summer break I’m excited to share all of the Kiev goodness with you! So for the next few weeks I’ll give you the different perspectives and stories of handbalancers who train at the place where some of the best handbalancers in the world are made. Today I’ll talk to […]
This episode is about a little hero I met here in Kiev. Kim just finished her first year at the Circus School and tells us about what she’s experiencing, being in one of the best schools (or probably even THE best school) for handbalance. I knew her a little from Instagram, but when I met […]
We’ve been hanging out in Kiev and literally training our butts off and our shoulders on for about a week now. And since we’re surrounded by amazing handbalancers 24/7 we came up with a fun idea: Why not do a Q&A with all of us, answering some of the questions we hear often? So in […]
