This standalone copy of the Handstand Press Magazine Issue 08, Staging Creation, picks up the notion of the stage, after we’ve come to realise that a stage can take many forms. The ways in which we get ready for stages, how we relate to our own creation and our public, and how we set up stages through tools like social media are various. Staging Creation presents facets of something that we have in common, no matter if we are professional handbalancers or not: a voluntary representation of the self towards the outer world. -
We are proud to be an official stockist of the Handstand Press Magazine. This standalone copy of the Handstand Press Magazine Issue 04, entitled Prop Stories, we explore the intersection between handbalance and objects. The theme “apparatus” returned us to a sense of playfulness. We see playfulness not only in how the handbalancer moves with their tools, but also, more often than not, in the creation of the apparatus itself throughout this issue’s 116 pages. -
We are proud to be an official stockist of the Handstand Press Magazine. This standalone copy of the Handstand Press Magazine Issue 06, entitled Growing Pains, we envisioned a collection of stories, lessons, and methods coming from practitioners, coaches, and professionals in relation to the frictions, challenges, and pains that emerge through the practice of handstands. As we advanced through the creation process of the issue, a pivotal challenge was presented to us at the Handstand Press Magazine. A challenge that risked the future of the magazine. A challenge that is forcing us to evolve and adapt. This internal process has merged with the core of the new issue, adding an extra dimension to the name throughout this issue's 116 pages. -
We are proud to be an official stockist of the Handstand Press Magazine. This standalone copy of the Handstand Press Magazine Issue 03, entitled Inside Balance, revolves around the mindset and the inner worlds surrounding the handbalance practice. While the body may be bound to the rules of physics, the mind can go anywhere. And so it often becomes a game of internal growth and expansion, of navigating between our habitual ways of thinking and our efforts to maintain a bird’s-eye-view. The creation process of Issue 03 has been particularly special, as they got to touch base with many people in the handbalance world on a deeper level. Prepare to uncover what is under the surface of a seemingly effortless, calm, and steady handstand throughout this issue’s 116 pages.
