So you want to learn a handstand? Just imagine what it would feel like to effortlessly hold a stable handstand for a minute. What would your friends and family say? How awesome would it look?

Let me tell you a story. When I first got into handstands I didn’t know what I was doing. Not to mention at 6’ 2” and around 180 pounds I’m not your average tiny gymnast’s size. I started with zero experience.

I took the long slow road which was full of frustration and many times I nearly gave up. Only through persistence was I finally able to hold a stable handstand. And it took me over a year to do it!

But you don’t have to follow what I did.

You see when I started this website I knew that nine people out of ten coming to it where looking to master this one main move. Without this foundation you can’t do anything else. You can’t do a handstand press…you can’t do a one arm handstand…you can’t jump on your hands…you can’t do ANYTHING!

Perhaps you find yourself in the same spot.

Maybe you’ve tried doing handstand before, but never had much success. You’re not alone.

The fact is if you find yourself there it’s not your fault. You were never properly taught a systematic approach to learning the handstand.

Let me explain. The handstand is an extremely difficult move, when you’re starting out. Yet people kick up or jump into a handstand hoping to hold it…and FAIL.

And I’m sorry but if you’re stumbling around on your hands you’re doing more harm then good.

This is Like Walking into a Gym and
Trying to Squat 500 lbs. on your First Day…

…It’s just not going to happen.

With the weights you need to build up to it. The handstand is just the same. Although you may be able to handle your own weight, learning the right position and the fine aspects of how to balance takes time and needs to be built up to.

That’s what the Lead-Up Stunts are all about.

In Secrets of the Handstand I detail…

Five Moves You Need to Master
Before You Even Try a Freestanding Handstand

Why?

Because these each teach you foundational skills that are easy to learn. In a couple weeks you can progress very far on these, unlike just going for the handstand.
