Shin to Foot to Reverse Hand to Hand
Shin to Foot to Reverse Hand to Hand
Description
This entrance to RH2H takes advantage of the flyers hips already being elevated to around the height needed for their handstand. While most entrances to handstands involve a flyer needing to press up on top of a higher surface this entrance allows the flyer a rare oppurtunity for a flyer to come down into a handstand. As such the details of how a base can provide support and smooth pathway for the flyer as the come down are essential for making this entrance consistent.

Tricky Acro Balances and Inversions
This series contains some fun and challenging balances for both base and flyer. These shapes can be made possible with patience and persistence. Of course, it does help for many of these poses if the flyer has some experience in how to invert themself, and the base can hold the flyer on one leg.

How to - Stalder Press
How To Stalder Press. In this short tutorial I show you 6 exercises you can do to work on your stalder press. Before you start working specifically on the stalder press, you should have a decent handstand, a normal handstand press, straddle L-sit and pancake stretch (check my other tutorials regarding these topics). Really focus on pushing your shoulders down to lift your legs up above your elbows. It's a lot easier to press from there. Exercise 4 (the stalder press cheat) helps a lot if you are not yet strong enough to get your legs above your elbows but you still want to get a feeling of pressing from the bottom up. Please make sure to warm up and prepare your wrists, shoulders etc. for these exercises! Let me know what you want to see next. If this was helpful for you and you'd like to support me, feel free to save this post and share it to other friends who could need some stalder press exercises or put it in your story. 🧡 Music: Paranoia - Alt Rock/Trap Style Hip Hop Beat / Prod.
