How to do a Handstand (Tutorial)

Here is a write-up on the Handstand Tutorial I released last week..

Hey guys!! So I made another tutorial, this time it’s a breakdown of how to do a handstand! This is one of the most universal ‘moves’ that you will see in Parkour, Yoga, Gymnastics, and many more disciplines.

The handstand was also one of the very first moves that I taught myself back when I started parkour, and if you’re looking for a good, simple way to start and get your motivation soaring, give the handstand a go!

The main key points to remember when learning how to do a handstand, are..

Give yourself a good warmup, especially focusing on your wrists! Your joints will take a while to get used to holding your body weight, and warming them up properly will help the process along without any injuries!

Learn how to bail! (Fall safely) I explain the methods about halfway through the video, but you could start learning these before you even begin doing the leg progressions! Learning how to fall out of a handstand properly will give you the confidence and safety you need to learn this move fast!

– When in your handstand, make sure you push the ground away, really opening up your shoulders and extending your body as long as it can go.

– Keep your abs muscles engaged, and your body tight. Practice holding still as long as possible.

– Some people lock their elbows, but I’d recommend keeping the slightest bend in your arms to avoid locking and “hyper-extending” your elbows.. (it’s not fun). Also, a very slight bend in your arms will help you to adjust your balance.

– Control the ground with your wrists, fingers, and the angle of your shoulders to your body. Play around until you see what works for your body type and sense of balance. (ex.. I find that if I’m falling short, I can bend my arms and move my shoulders in front of my wrists to regain balance..)

– Practice the handstand balance and strength drills that I suggested in the tutorial video! They will really help you work up to a handstand.. or if you already have your hand stands, these drills will help you clean them up!

This is my personal routine that I follow when I’m in a hurry, and it is based on a mixture of TaeKwondo, Shaolin Kungfu, Yoga, and XMA. The focus is on “Dynamic Stretching” movements which will warm and limber you up, while keeping your strength and speed up for training. I usually try to save the “Static Stretching” (stretches where you stay still) exercises until the end of my workout, to maximize the flexibility benefits and cool myself off effectively!

Grayson: Earth One premiers it’s Nightwing origin story!

On Sunday morning, P3 Productions released a pilot for their latest webseries. They call it Grayson: Earth One, and it is an origin story for the super hero known as “Nightwing”. I worked on this briefly, helping out choreograph and perform the fight scenes.

Writer/Director Hisonni Johnson pitches to us the concept that this story happens on Earth One (a clever plot workaround used to justify changes to the DC Universe). I quite like the music and feeling of the whole episode, especially the character design homage to one of my favorite movies of all time, The Crow.

“The twist here is that Richard Grayson has never had the good fortune of being adopted as a child by Bruce Wayne, thus never becoming the boy wonder. Instead, we have a Richard Grayson that had to fend for himself on the unforgiving streets of Gotham and, even worse, the streets of Bludhaven. A character that has to overcome years of dog eat dog mentality to become a selfless and kind individual. To ultimately fulfill his destiny and become a HERO.” – Hisonni Johnson (Director)

You can watch the episode here:

They have gathered over 11,000 views in just two days, an impressive feat for a brand new video series. I had fun working fights on this project..and if they manage to meet their funding goals to make a whole series, that will mean the fight team gets to return with more action and a bigger budget to really play!
