Weekend Course in Sydney includes two full days of training and instruction. Each day will consist of two 3-hour sessions with a 2-hour lunch break in between. 

Topics of instruction include:
Hand Balancing for all levels, bodyweight strength, floor acrobatics, "movement", rehab/prehab and physical preparation, flexibility/mobility, and recovery work. 
The subjects will be taught from different perspectives from complete beginner to a professional level. More important than that is that the concept of how to learn and teach the skills as an adult, which will be covered in great detail. 

Basic schedule for the weekend
Saturday: Beginner and Intermediate Hand Balance
-Physical preparation for the training
-Alignment Work
-Arm Support
-Inversion
-Dealing with fear and stress when learning the handstand
-Progressions towards balancing a freestanding handstand
-Learning to use the three layers of balance to build strength, control, and lead into more advanced skills

About the event:
-The format is very open and the schedule is more of a loose outline. Curriculum of a course is unique to that course and is dependent on the level of the participants, what they want to learn, and the equipment we have available. 
-All levels and backgrounds welcome. This is a unique learning experience that can be applied to different perspectives. 
-The main idea behind the material is to use acrobatic movements as a tool to help develop increased body control and self-awareness. 
-The 2-day course is a way to really get into the finer details of the skills that cannot be expressed fully in a short class or workshop.
