    Handstands are one of those poses that once you finally get it (even if it takes years) it is so rewarding and makes you feel so accomplished! Love this video.

    This is one of the best yoga tutorials on the internet. The way you explain is soo precise and accurate which is not done by other teachers.Wrong moves are dangerous for the body.This tutorial helps us to avoid the tiny little dangers for the body. Thankyou so much.

      Do yourself a favor and follow Natalie Reckert's 30 day handstand course. You will get all simple explanations and a systematic set of exercises from a master handbalancer rather than thousands of useless words like here.

I shall let you know how I get on xxx
