when I was a child I used to put a mattress in the middle of my mom's living room, put a CD to play and started to discover some positions my body could handle. I had never heard of yoga that time. later my mother took me to Olympic gymnastics classes and it was nice, but I left after two years, I guess. but handstand was something that I always felt like doing after that.

later, I took Kundalini yoga classes when I was preparing for the conception of my kids, in 2017. two years ago I started circus classes and it was very nice, I practiced handstand a little bit, but I wish I had practiced so much more. they had classes just for that, but I couldn't make it. I took only a few months of classes and I also left.

last year I had like 4 yoga classes, of vinyasa flow - and that was something that really touched me, but that was all.

I don't really know when or why but handstand is something I feel like doing so often, but I never do. I always supress that. when I read your proposal I thought it could be the perfect excuse for me to practice.

I'm sorry I wrote so much. if it bothers you please let me know.

Hi Pollyanna. Thanks for sharing your beautiful story. It deeply resonates with me.

I remember practicing crow pose and doing nauli kriya at a young age with other neighborhood kids lol.

Like you, I too have had this on again off again fascination with handstand. So yes, I do believe now is the time.

Let's go!! :-)
