MOVEMENT 4 Handstand workshop 2025
fUNDAMENTAL + intermedate workshop
Have you practiced handstands for a while and are working on refining your form, consistency, shapes or press?
Or maybe you have just started out and want to learn the fundamentels towards a freestanding straight handstand.
In either case you will get great value from this 2-day handstand workshop weekend with Ulrik at Movement 4!
This weekend there will be one 2-day workshop for beginner and intermediate level. The goal for Day one is to cover the fundamentals of two arm practice.
On day two we will take it a bit further with moving into refinement of body position, introduce shapes and press to handstand.
Both days will teach you how to train on your own, there will be individual feedback and time for questions and personal feedback.
The workshop is intended as a two-day event but it’s possible sign-up for only one day if you are very new, or more on the advanced end.

Ulrik Ask Fossum
I am Ulrik, a 33 year old handbalancer from Norway. I started my handstand training when I was 21. I remember well how it was to be scared of climbing up the wall. How it was to kick-up and fall again and again. How it was to be stiff and weak.
Over my 12 years of training handbalancing I have felt most of the things you are feeling with your handstand practice now. The frustration of not progressing. The wrist pain from being too eager. And the heaviness on the shoulders. But most important: How to overcome this.
Since I discovered that handbalancing is a thing it's possible to learn, I have spent most days training and nerding it.
I worked 5 years as a personal trainer from 2012 and started to teach handstands through online coaching and workshops from around 2016. A few years later I quit my general trainer job to focus solely on teaching handstands which I have done since, and I love it! Being able to share the lessons I have learned to master this skill, and seeing how peoples faces light up when they progress gives me just as much joy as when I progress in the training myself, and that’s why I hope you’ll join my workshop. I am also a tall and big guy, who enjoys strength training as well as handbalancing and have learned how to combine these two training forms.
