The one handed handstand is another gymnastics progression after the handstand...

Difficulty: Moderately Challenging
Instructions
  1. Step 1

    Make sure that you can hold a two handed handstand for quite a few seconds before trying the one handed handstand.

  2. Step 2

    Start with your feet against a wall for stability and practice lifting one hand slightly off the ground.

  3. Step 3

    As you lift one hand up, you will have to shift your bodyweight to adjust over only one hand.

  4. Step 4

    Practice doing the one handed handstand away from the wall somewhere safe like a grassy yard or a gymnastics gym.

  5. Step 5

    Now you can do a one handed handstand!
