“I learned a lot while doing acrobatics that can be easily translated to everyday life:
🔹You never have to play/live/be alone – unless you choose to.
🔹Yes, there is some energy you need to put into, you cannot be based if you’re not staying tight, tall and strong, and nobody wants to get hurt while spotting you, but if you keep your shape, trust and communicate well, you can safely fly high!
🔹Your real life spotters, called friends, are there to catch you when you fall. And even before you fall, they push you back into balance. Amazing how this works!“
I love the PA-family!

Sometimes it takes 2 to handstand...alongside learning a handstand is learning to spot a handstand. A good spot can help a lot for the hanstander to feel or learn something new they wouldn’t have been able to on their own. A bad spot can ruin your handstand or make it way harder than it should be.
_______
On all our courses teach you some cool ways of helping and spotting your friends or students in their handstands, we promise it will be more effective than what we are showing in this pic!!!

Elbow rolls
.
Place an elbow on the floor.
Without lifting your elbow off the floor, proceed to then to move your hand/forearm around your fixed point elbow in a circle (move your body around as much as you need).
.
*Secret tip--at some point your shoulder will have to touch the floor and if you get stuck you will likely need to rotate your shoulder to keep passing.
.
Be sure to practice both directions! And notice how your shoulders feel after...
Enjoy!

Evan Josef Cohn
A.k.a @acrobeatbox ⬇️⬇️⬇️ Evan is a new addition to our teaching team and we're almost as excited to have him as he is to be had. If you've ever met Evan you'd most likely remember him for his enthusiasm and seemingly endless source of energy. Evan originally trained with us as a student back in 2018 in Thailand and spent the last 2 years living a life of acro. This guy is super fun and very dedicated to acro and his practice.
Also, if you've never met him, chances are you'll hear him before you see him. Not because he's a loud american but because he makes beats wherever he goes.
____________
We're proud of you Evan and grateful for having you on the team!
Catch him with us at Sicily Preconvention July 17-19
and our new Open Level Intensive in Spain Sept 5-12

Cheers!

Handstand canes ⬇️⬇️⬇️
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
We love them, we have them at all our training locations.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
They actually make it a little easier to balance (once you manage to get up) as you can push and pull... not that that is a good habit though-haha.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
There are many fun entrances you can train and we would love to teach you how to roll up on them :)⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

With all the craziness and uncertainty we hope you're all safe, and in the company of a loved one 😊
⠀
Hopefully, you are practicing social distancing or staying in for the next weeks and we want to help you handle your acro withdrawal by sharing some prehab/handstand exercises. Step away from Netflix and get moving with us!
⠀
Let's see this as an opportunity to inspire each other and see how creative we can get at home. Share a video of your practice with hashtag #HandstandsAtHome and tag @partneracrobatics so we can share it in our stories.
⠀
Can't wait to see what you all get up to! Have fun and keep safe!

Squats... You just gotta do them! Seriously thou

Squats...
You just gotta do them!
Seriously though, squatting is maybe the 2nd best thing that you can do without a partner after handstands.
__________
When training your squats keep these simple tips in mind to improve your practice.
1. Don't compromise your low back to squat lower. Keep it neural and think "head up" as you try to increase your depth.
2. Knees tracking in same direction as toes, and find the right balance of hips back vs knees forward for your comfort
3. Serious pre req of being able to squat on your own before loading it with a 2 high! Maybe scale it with some weights before putting that whole person there:)
So next time you find yourself working on those squats, remember these tips and let us know if it feels better.

Usually the clothes we wear separate us from the other animals we share this earth with. Let us not forget that we too are animals of this planet and though we may wear clothes we have an animalistic nature to us. It's rare to find comfortable clothing to wear that connect us back to this nature. With Uranta,you can feel like you've gone back to your roots and move freely as the animal you are.So be wild, and dress in a way that connects you to your beautiful body. 🦁

Have you ever asked yourself what your capable of

Have you ever asked yourself what your capable of when you're at your best?
Ever wonder how much you could grow if all you had to think about was waking up, showing up and putting in the work?
What if we told you that there exists a place most of your needs are taken care of?
You have a cozy place to sleep
All of your delicious food is prepared for you
And your schedule is centered around acro, handstands and movement.
Well guess what!?
That's exactly what are trainings are like ⬇️⬇️⬇️

"I called Emily a week before the Partner Acrobati

"I called Emily a week before the Partner Acrobatics Spain teacher training 2016, super worried because I had so much shoulder pain that I hadn't been able to handstand for half a year, and with the third ankle sprain that year. She just said "don't worry, come, and we'll sort it out". And that's exactly what they did. I left the training in perfect health, for which I will be eternally grateful to this amazing team of body engineers. I also came with a huge passion for intricate washing machines, which not only did they satisfy, but also expanded to hand to hand and icarian acrobatics. Since then, I have been hooked on all these disciplines, and haven't stopped teaching them around the world since.
With them I learnt some of the most important lessons, like the crucial role of FUN in training, teaching, and learning. I also came to understand how Acro exposes our vulnerability and breeds empathy and trust, the three fundamental ingredients for human connection, which we then have to handle carefully through SAFETY and of course, TEAMWORK. These are the three pillars of PA which I will never forget.
Right now we organise retreats around the world (including Italy, Spain, Morocco, Brazil, Guatemala...) with the team that we founded from that training (@Acrology) incorporating Acro and adventure activities. I also love to teach with many other teachers, and recently had the chance to teach alongside much of the PA team, which was a dream come true!! This year I'm really looking forward to so much growth and sharing with this amazing team of people. Thank you for putting me on the highway to my dreams!" __________________

Sometimes you gotta lean like your life depends on

Sometimes you gotta lean like your life depends on it.
The trick to a great counterbalance is a good grip, constant tension and trusting that you and your partner will give weight as needed to support each other. ⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️
Tips to keep in mind;
• Keep the tension! • See with your body not your eyes. Trust the tension so you may be able to feel your partner as you give or take weight.
• Lean away!!!! More often than not when people are first learning counterbalances they have a tendency to want to stay close to their partner out of fear for falling. (Which by the way, is completely normal.) The reality is that the counterbalance needs the distance and tension to support the structure and be strong. When you do this correctly it should feel effortless and somewhat easy!

___________
So remember to lean away and go make something pretty! 🙃
