Out of Hand

[d8xangelx8b]

Perfect balance!

[Trebor75317]

This is impressive, thanks for the demonstration! I am even far from doing a good handstand right now. But one thing i noticed: When doing the regular handstand movement, you mostly look down to the floor. My mestre told me to train looking to the front so i can see my partner all the time.

Would you suggest training in both ways, looking up and down, or just train one way?

[Romulitos]

Ido, you are really amazing. I'm from Brazil, and now that I discovered your portal, you are officialy my teacher of body control. I practice Capoeira for 8 years, and my specialty are those static movements, but you make them look EVEN MUCH MORE static! Hope I'll be like you some day. And who knows, to play with you someday soon!!

[BatmanEnvy]

Real life Luke Skywalker stuff. Very impressive.

[FenrilZeji]

any tips for doing this?



[amarcapoeira93]

Ido you really are one of a kind. I hope to once come train with you. I started like half a year ago training capoeira and I follow you vids for a while now. Your game and your dedication to everything you do are really inspiring. I hope to once play a gamo of capoeira with you. Im deffinitely gonna train hard!!!

[portaldo]

@amarcapoeira93 Thank you very much, my friend. It would be my pleasure! Keep moving, exploring, playing. Life is strong in those moments!

[WallYoga]

[SunderWolf69]

So stable. Must get stronger!

[JoAirton]

Great video Ido. Could you give me the name of the song please ? Thx :)

[Quelsos]

Nice video Ido. One question: I'm searching for a longer handstand and a one arm handstand. This is a formidable material to my training: thank you very much.

Do you recommend to follow this progresions one to one, not going forward until have a good control of one technique?

[carfel92]

wow what is the name of ur group?

capoeira is the balance of ur spirit

very good all the videoos

[guy71452]

אחי נכון היית בקפוארה

[Quelsos]

I like it very much. Definitively I'm going to try some of these moves. I was wishing to have something to learn a one handstand.

Thank you very much Ido.

[MrLiquidgypsy]

every excellent video man, wow

[galaxything]

Name of song please m8?? :)

[xyzDracheCanohuo]

try no hands now :D

[HeavenlyTora]

May i ask how long it took before you mastered this ?. did you start directly trying all these moves after you got the balance to do plain handstands ?

Would be thankful for any tip. Im just a begginer.

[ParkourLearner23]

OMOGMOGMOGMOGMGO you are a beast i cant hold a handstand for some reason ): i only can hold it sometimes for like 10 sec and then i lose balance but me holding it for that long is extremely rare. i want to hold handstands like you have any advice for me?

[dragonwar090]

portaldo thats just freakin amazing!! how do you do Equilibrium training?

[sleepwalkrsalty]

O.O marvelous display of control i have to keep practicing so i can achieve this or better

[snowsportsrule2112]

you are awesome i want to be able to do some of the things you are able to do. what would you suggest for me to do? i can do basic handstands, but my back is arched to much, and i want to work to at least close to where you are. i am athletic, and very capable, but i need pointers. thanks so much for the video, its awesome!

[solejav13r]

name the song??????

[NiftyVT]

I just love that cartwheel to airbaby!

[Eddylonglegs]

Wow. Inspiring! makes me want to train lots of handstands. that shifting from hand to hand thing looks helpful.

[MoisesMarins]

SENSACIONAL!!!

[THEBODYPRACTICE]

Brother, only now can I really appreciate the hundreds of hours of work you've put into your handbalancing practice. Before, I was (more or less mystified). The handstand work is definately the focal point in my own training, and watching you continues to bring new inspiration. Hope things in France with Master Claude Victoria, is going great! I'm sure you will enjoy your experience!

[lezardaki]

que bonito compay!

[cheerdiver]

Awesome!!!

I am so jealous. Always enjoyed practicing hs but @ 300# I have to keep it simple.

kudos

[LokasoMax]

Incredible! I consider this video a form of art because of how the concotion of the music and the poses make me feel Thanks for this video. O yeah! how do u do this so well and how long have you been doing this?

[henryishappy]

Still one of my favorite handstand videos.

I'm working on 1 handed handstand now as well, I'll definitely try the exercises you're doing in the beginning.

[portaldo]

Thank you, my friend.

I wish it was my favorite handstand video...

Keep training,

Ido.

[UselessSkill]

@portaldo so what is your favorite handstand video?

[PelacMafija]

whats the use of the legs?

[sorrisos]

מגניב ביותר!

כמה זמן אתה מתאמן על כל העמידות ידיים והתרגילים האלה?

חח אני ממש מקנא, בא לי גם

[portaldo]

שבוע, שבועיים

[sorrisos]

חחח מה שבוע שבועיים?

שמעתי שהתאמנת עם מומחים וכל מיני אנשים שעוסקים בזה שנים...

[portaldo]

טוב, נו, חודש...

[kierratab]

great work nice balancing do you know what that song is called?

[portaldo]

'from a shell' / lisa germano

[daienzd]

what the problem with my handstand

i can do balance at 3 sec only

why?

[DeftJay]

When you do hand stands...

Start in a runners sprint position.

Spread your fingers apart.

Grip into the ground.

Stiff out your arms so it's relies on structure not strength.

Straighten your legs and point the feet straight up, like your trying to push your body skyward.

Start doing this against a wall until your can do it real easily then move away and start experimenting with your hand stands.

Any other questions, feel free to ask me :D

[kiwarrior888]

you're truly awesome, Ido - I especially love your one-arm handstands. I'm currently trying to get those though I can't decide which arm should I use for it :(

[portaldo]

Both!

[GaryVTran]

Amazing! Thank you Ido.  Looks like a dance =]

[MURGAPTF]

I just found this by accedant, been doing all kinds of movement for 10 years. watching the balances I so did not expect capiera, i did that for a year and loved it. very beautiful movement. never stop. any tips on creating resilience in the wrists?

[BboyNubsauce]

Are you supposed to do those first leg moving exercises slowly at first? or as fast as u can?

[portaldo]

Both can be and should be done. Both have a purpose. Try and see how you like it...

[conditioningdaniel]

Hehe jokes man ;) xx

[ORTprod]

Solid! I can't wait to work with you :)

[NiftyVT]

I really liked the cartwheel to airbaby!

Nice job again Ido

[conditioningdaniel]

You are amazing portaldo, this level at your current age still.

Bravo.

[portaldo]

Hey, hey, take it easy on me... I am not that old.

[jigglestumps]

Haha, that was harsh man... This level for any age is incredible. Also, I agree, you're harldy an old guy aye! Thanks for another awesome video...

[ndo84]

lol

[vinceconditioning]

one arm handstand with close legs at 2:07 : very impressive im working on that.

[Demus15]

Incredible stuff Ido! Really inspiring

[ATSSPOKANE1994]

QUALITY!! No slack in training or devotional daily practice. Words simply don't quantify the magnitude this presentation.

[baz1686]

Wow! Amazing!

I like the song! hahaha

[portaldo]

I knew you'd like that.... Its the fucking Buzz, what can i say?!

[jube73]

WOW man! some great breakthroughs...

We will go over some stuff when you get here, but generally you are heading towards towards a very interesting direction of combining Capueira, floor work and equilibre... I would start filming yourself from the back and side (there is much to learn from that) and do more cube work...

Talk to you soon,

[portaldo]

My friend, you are my inspiration. Your words weigh a ton for me. Thank you.

[anakrousis]

Love the one-arm entry at 2:45...I have to work on that!
