Brutally honest online handstand coaching from someone who learned as an adult.

Hi, I’m Ulrik, and I’m a certified personal trainer and not a professional hand balancer. I’m self-taught and I don’t have a background in circus or gymnastics or acrobatics.

Why am I telling you this?

Learning how to handstand as an adult means I know what it’s like to be stiff, confused and uncertain about being upside down- and I can coach you through those unique challenges so you can finally get that handstand you’ve been dreaming about.

I´ve worked with Ulrik in the past four months. He has prepared programs for me in order to build proper foundations in 2 arm basics, gaining the necessary strength for 1 arm handstands (lots of wall drills) and to reach my goal in achieving the press.  What I like about his coaching is that he is very clear about what needs to be done to achieve the goals. Even though sometimes I felt very little progress in my training he always reassured me and adapted the program to my current individual needs. In these four months I have gotten a really strong foundation and made a lot of progress in my handstand and I am looking forward to continuing my handstand journey with Ulrik.

Ulrik tailors your program and coaching cycle around your goals, needs and time. Whenever you have questions of any kind he will answer them. If needed he will also record clips for you showing you what he means. All in all a great coaching style because he practices what he preaches and he knows exactly what your struggle with because he has been there himself (self-taught handbalancer in his adult years)

Ulrik is the best role model for me. He practices what he preaches. His actions talk and he follows it up with great care and coaching. He is really working with you (Celebrates some victories with you. Challenges and pushes me when I need a push). He is always spot on with feedback, cues and criticism.

I did 8 weeks of online coaching with Ulrik which isn’t a lot, but in this period I made the biggest progress ever in terms of hand balancing in my entire training career yet. For me the best part about his online coaching was the programming. Ulrik has a very direct way of coaching and he doesn’t sugar coat anything for you.

Ulrik is a cool guy who knows his stuff! We did a lot in 1 hour. No bla bla, only work, very intense and physical. He adapts to your level, and then pushes a little bit further. During this session he helped me to see what was wrong (and corrected it) and right, and then what I will have to do next to reach my goal and one day spend time on one arm.... It's worth it!

I found Ulrik on Instagram and found his post both humorous and inspiring. I decided I wanted to become a student of his to finally achieve a one arm handstand, after a year of failing on my own. Fortunately, Ulrik is a phenomenal coach and forced me to address my inability to do various handstand shapes (and the dreaded press handstand, which is now not very bad) that form the foundation of strength in a one arm handstand. While I am still working on a one arm, I now have a clear path towards my goal.
