"I had the pleasure of doing Alona's 5-day handstand retreat in Sweden and it was so rewarding! It was definitely plenty of hard work, but it felt amazing to be deeply immersed in handstand practice under her guidance, knowledge and expertise, and surrounded by other amazing handbalancing enthusiasts. I appreciated being able to dive deeper into Alona's unique methods and technique, to expand on what we learned each day, and to rediscover my handstand in my own body and build more confidence. Alona cultivated a very supportive environment where everyone had the space and capacity to delve into their practice and play with all the different shapes and techniques she offered us. We were encouraged to ask questions and experiment, and to do what felt natural and good for our bodies without any pressure. Alona brings such a refreshing dose of humour and realism to her coaching, and the whole experience was overwhelmingly positive, holistic, and rich in learning. We also had plenty of time to rest and just enjoy the retreat experience! I would highly recommend a retreat with Alona to anyone looking to deepen and enrich their handbalancing training."
