Bust out a new entry to hand to hand with Bronco! This skill is one of the best ways to freshen up your favorite skill (hand to hand). Timing is everything here. Learning the structure of timing between partnerships (new and old) is what will propel you into bigger and more exciting dynamic entries. The beauty of Bronco is that it’s easy to take home because the spotter really only needs to understand how to spot hand to hand. Solid standing hand to hand is a must for this class (15 second hold with no steps).

every series or workshop i teach on handstands gets a little better, especially for beginners, as i learn through experience which drills empower students to make the movements and shapes demanded in acrobatics. lots of drills on the hands, and even more off the hands, so students can strengthen their hands, shoulders and core to make a better handstand. prereqs none
