Handbalancing
with Mikael Kristiansen
May 19-20, 2012

SPACE FOR THIS WORKSHOP IS LIMITED TO 20 PARTICIPANTS!

Balancing poses have the reputation of being only for advanced students, yet those who work on even the simplest variations know the joy they bring. Studio 8 is lucky to have a master student of the art of hand-balancing, Mikael Kristiansen, give a workshop which will develop the ‘fun’-damentals of building a handstand practice. The workshop will cover both theory, progression and practice, and hopefully a small demonstration of Mikael’s amazing talents.

In his own words -

Hello, my name is Mikael Kristiansen, and I am a student at the national circus program in Stockholm, specializing in handbalancing.

The classes will be for those on all levels, and focusing on the fundamentals and progressions which build up to the more advanced balances.

Proper hand-spotting, and different key exercises for alignment, balance and strength, as well as 1 arm work will be covered.

Since this is only a 2 days workshop, I want to teach how to most effectively train technically challenging elements without a professional coach.

There will a session of about 3 hours both days, with the intensity kept low to be able to spend the energy on learning how to train, rather than getting exhausted at once.
