Handstands
with Moonbeam
Christine teaches a weekly Handstand Class
on Zoom from 1-2:30 EDT. Join for anywhere.
This class began March 2020 right as covid was surging around the globe. This class has served as motivation to continue working toward handstand goals with some community support and accountability. Our crew has stuck with the class and it’s still going strong.
This is a mixed level, community focused class on Zoom.
