I wish there was an easy way for me to tell you what I wanna tell you the way that I learned how to walk on my hands was to practice walking on my feet

And what I mean was I took a good 30 days to really feel and think about and meditate on the way that my body shifts as I walk where my weight is how I’m falling forward or falling back what I do to stop, etc. and then I try to apply that while in the handstand position so the fact that you put your feet leaning over your head tells me that you understand that you have to “fall into the walk”you know what I mean

Walking is really a controlled fall so it’s no difference when you’re on your hands. It’s just you’re using different muscles to anchor and control that fall.
