Handstand Walk
Equipment
Position yourself in a handstand position against a wall for support, with your hands placed shoulder-width apart, fingers spread for balance, and your body aligned straight from head to toe.
Once you are comfortable in the handstand position, gently push off the wall and try to balance on your hands, engaging your core and keeping your body tight and straight.
Begin to walk by shifting your weight onto one hand and moving the other hand forward, followed by shifting the weight onto the other hand and moving the first hand forward.
Practice this movement repeatedly, always maintaining a strong core and body alignment, until you can comfortably walk on your hands for a short distance. Remember to always land safely and controlled if you lose balance.
