Allison thank you so much for bringing this challenge to life. Your careful  and precise  instruction is clear  and not at all overwhelming. I am already cultivating a different view of handstand. I really appreciated the practice with the “wobble board.”  Feeling strong and grateful as I leave my mat. 🙏 

M Angela C Thank you for joining me!  That made my day that you are cultivating a different view of handstand already. That is amazing!!  I’d love to hear more about your journey as you move along the challenge. Have fun and cheers to more days feeling strong 💪💗🙏

You are a handstand genius Allison !! So many fascinating ways to approach this!!! Loving this challenge.  : )

That was super great Allison, many thanks. These sessions are teaching me a lot about what is going on in my body (by actually feeling it) when I kick up into handstand and I suspect all that will likely help keep me safe in this practice as I do it in future 💗🙏

Kate M So sweet of you! I'm glad you enjoyed the different approaches : )

Catherine A So glad to hear that! Yes, I love that..."by actually feeling" what you are doing and the effect it has on your body and mind versus "doing it" for the sake of doing. I do believe the more in tune we are with our body and who we are, the better we will be for it in any capacity and with any challenges we approach. 

I'm really enjoying this course. I've always been anxious in handstands (even though I can do a headstand) because I'm hyper mobile.

Eva W I’m so glad you are enjoying this series! Pain is a fickle beast. I often need to experiment in my own body because some days a set of exercises will work really well and other times it doesn’t. Pressing into the finger tips is a great way to engage the muscles in the backside of the forearm but in handstanding, it is a dance of shifting weight in the hands rather than a rigid place to be. Taking more time with mobility work, weight training or more specific training (doing more handstands for a shorter period of time). If doing the same thing yields the same results, try something different to yield different outcomes. And if pain persists, it’s always a good idea to get your wrists checked out. Happy handstanding! 

Allison thank you for your advice and motivation, I feel like I'm closer to getting my handstand.
