Handstands Level 2

Got handstand fundamentals and ready to soar to new heights? This workshop will help you level up your handstand. If you’ve been using the wall as a crutch or you feel like your practice has become stagnant, this is the workshop for you.

Farrell leads this amazing workshop and will cover:

2. Different kick-ups.
3. Different handstand variations- straddle, scorpion, stag legs, diamond legs.
4. Neutralizing banana-back.

Anyone with a handstand practice will benefit from this workshop, including those who have taken Level 1. Whether you want to take your practice from beginner to intermediate, or from intermediate to advanced, you will come out of this workshop ready to take on the next challenge!

This meetup group gives paddlers of all skill levels a chance to meet other paddlers for flat water and mildwater paddling. We get together to share our love of water and the outdoors. We paddle mostly local/regional waters, and may also plan overnight, weekend, or longer trips farther away. We share tips, information, and knowledge. All members are welcome to post trips and/or discussions. All are welcome. We have NO RULES except be safe and have fun.

“Mildwater” means different things to different people. For new paddlers, mild may mean lakes and flat rivers. For those who have whitewater experience, Class 2+ or Class 3 whitewater may be mild. Meetup organizers provide descriptions of their outings. It is your responsibility to read those descriptions, ask questions if needed, and decide whether a given outing is right for you, given your skills and equipment.
