Bail out of handstand

Join our bail out of handstand workshop with Judit

One of the biggest obstacles in handstand practice is the fear of falling. Without the knowledge of how to exit safely, many practitioners hesitate to fully commit to their inversions, leading to instability and frustration. This workshop, led by Judit, is designed to provide a structured and methodical approach to falling safely, refining alignment, and building confidence in handstands.

By focusing on proper body alignment, participants will learn how to create a stable foundation that not only minimizes the risk of falling but also allows for more controlled exits when needed. Whether you are a beginner working on your first handstand or an experienced practitioner refining your technique, this workshop will give you the tools to practice inversions with greater awareness, control, and ease.
