Dylan Werner: From Soldier to Yogi - The Art of Conscious Falling

One of the things that I teach when I teach handstands is I teach conscious falling, and when you bring consciousness to falling, which is something that you have to do when you re learning how to do handstands, it requires you to think a little bit more.
