NEXT INTAKE STARTS ON:
A course centered around you
Your personal coach will help you identify your strengths and body preferences, plan your training sessions depending on your schedule and select the best bang-for-buck drills for you.
A supportive tribe
The Rocket gathers a thriving community of people just like you, from 30 to 70 year old (and rocking it!), from all around the world.
Our common passion creates friendships.
A stellar curriculum
Crafted over 10 years of teaching, the Rocket's curriculum (which you have lifetime access to) covers EVERYTHING you need to get to the Freestanding Freedom Standard.
WHAT IT IS
The Rocket is the exact opposite: we believe in the power of individuality.
We work with individuals, their bodies, their capabilities, their goals.
We adapt your training to what you strive in, to accelerate your progress and find the handstand that suits you.
WHY MOST PROGRAMS DON'T HELP
The Web is crowded with Generic programs, offering a dozen drills and some training suggestions.
They give you a bunch of exercises, with sets and reps. At best, you can interact with the teacher through text to ask questions.
Problem: a generic program doesn't take into account your singularity, ie your current level of strength, your mobility, your injury history, what works for your body, what doesn't resonate with you, etc.
Generic programs only take you so far...
They don't factor in your individualities, your strengths, your needs.
Handstands are a subtle art.
They require careful adjustments to select the best drills for you.

CURRICULUM
MODULE 3: BODY SILENCE
Handstands need an exquisite level of body awareness. We need to move exactly the right things at the right time to maintain balance. This module covers all the drills needed to achieve that.
MODULE 6: ASSEMBLING THE PUZZLE
Once you have covered all the foundations and isolated the areas of improvements relevant to YOU, it is time to conquer your freestanding handstand.
MODULE 2: THE RIGHT ALIGNMENT - YOURS
Open or closed shoulders? Ribs in or out? Elevated or depressed scapula? In the Rocket, we answer it all and debunk the many preconceived ideas in the process. Hint: your handstand is unique.
MODULE 5: MICRO-BALANCING
The fingers are what holds you in balance. There are 5 essential patterns to master: the push, the relaxation, the gear switch, the pulse and the eversion.
MODULE 1: THE PERFECT KICK-UP
The kick-up is the entry gate to our handstand. Discover the optimal hand placement, hand to wall distance, leg coordination and muscle engagement that will maximise your success rate.
MODULE 4: STRENGTH & MOBILITY
What is the minimum amount of strength needed, and how to develop rock-solid shoulders for longer holds. How to open the shoulders safely and why.
Because we work with individuals, our curriculum is the most comprehensive and structured available on the Web. In the Rocket, you see ALL the progressions for alignment, kick-up, bailing and balance. You stop the guesswork, immediatly know where you are at and what the next steps are.
... with tailor-made content!
That's not all...
In the Rocket, the program is tailor-made.
This means that it lives, breathes and evolves with everybody's needs, strengths and goals.
You never have to guess or feel stuck with your program: it adapts to you.
Whether you need a concept to be re-explained differently or specific routines to integrate your technique, I adapt the content of the program to each group to cater your needs as best as possible.
I actually routinely head to the studio to shoot videos specific to each group!
Talk about tailored!
📚 An error-proof program...
The backbone of the program is built around 6 modules covering everything there is to know to hold a 15 second consistent, straight freestanding handstand.
They detail all the foundations needed to reach the wall in your kick-ups, get rid of it if you're already freestanding, understand your handstand, develop mobility, conquer fear, master any shapes and much, much more.

One of the biggest strenghts of the 🚀 Rocket:
Before we start our course, your handstand is thoroughly assessed.
You're talking about an in-depth analysis of everything in your handstand, in which I show you:
- what works in your handstand, and of course what doesn't work (yet)
- your priorities for the next 6 weeks in handbalancing
- a roadmap to filter and select the best drills for you
- the inversion shapes that will maximise your success
That assessment itself will push your handstand to the
next level.
Many students 🤯 can't believe how much they got
just from that initial assesment alone.
Not only that...
Every week, your handstand is reviewed
and you get the most detailed feedback!
DAILY ANSWERS TO YOUR QUESTIONS
Every day, you will be able to send all your questions.
I will answer them on a daily basis.
WEEKLY COACHING
The strength of this program: you send homework every week, and I make sure that you're doing everything perfectly, showing you what can be improved, removing any guesswork and accelerating your progress.
IN-DEPTH FORM CHECKS
The program will start with a thorough form check in which we will deconstruct your handstand, piece by piece.
I will show you exactly what is happening, what shouldn't happen, how to fix it, what can be improved, and guide you to the best course of action.
