LONDON HANDSTAND ACADEMY

First time attending such a workshop. The teacher was approachable and considered questions before answering. The class was structured well with a comprehensive warm up, and progressively more difficult options available or the option to stick to more comfortable variations. A conversational flow between the teacher and students led to new ideas being explored and tried out. A calm and productive environment to further a handstand practice.

Elliott is an experienced handstand coach and qualified yoga teacher with nearly a decade of personal practice. He blends his own experience with the disciplines of yoga and calisthenics to help students build functional strength, stable foundations and high-level control through structured guidance. Elliott is known for his ability to coach clients through all stages of their handstand journey, from novice to advanced achievements like the one-arm handstand.

I am very active and energetic and, thankfully, thus far, in good health. So when Elliott began coaching me in handstands and yoga, I was surprised by the challenges I faced. The inward focus, the attention to breathing and to the body, and the often difficult (for me) poses were all new to me and out of my comfort zone. Nevertheless, by the end of my first class, I felt a new sense of balance and stability in my normally runaway mind. After several weeks of regular practice, I am pleased to confirm that I am still capable of managing new challenges. I find that when my inner and outer worlds are in sync, the intrinsic goodness of life is more available for my appreciation. Thank you Elliott.

Brilliant teacher. Lovely central venue. Learned a lot! Thank you.
