About This Event:

Circotica Circus School is excited to host Gretchen Ernst (a.k.a. Technique Artist) for this 90-minute beginner handstand workshop!

This workshop is intended for those who are in the beginning of their handstand journey, as well as those who may have been doing handstands for some time but are still not feeling confident or consistent in the balance.

We will look at the foundational work that gives specific strength and mobility to directly benefit handstands. We will also address approaches to getting starting with or advancing balance.

Bring your questions!

Open to adults and youth.

Gretchen is a passionate handstand and flexibility coach and bio mechanics educator.

Hand Balancing training began in San Francisco and continued in Montreal and Ukraine. 

Gretchen has been performing hand balancing and aerial internationally for the past 10 years, working most recently with Messi10 by Cirque du Soliel.
