How to do a Handstand Scissor Kick Up (Freestanding)
Tuck your head between your shoulders, dig your fingers into the floor, push high through your shoulders, squeeze your core and glutes tight, and point your legs long to the sky. Kick your legs up towards the sky aiming to get your hips above your shoulders and hands. Keep your legs in an active front split position throughout, making sure they are tight and long, this will help you balance. If you go too far over, cartwheel to the side. If you don't go up high enough try stacking better abd kicking a little harder next time. It's important to experience "failure" in both directions this helps us understand where your balance point for your handstand is. The better and more consistently you are able to hit that balance point the easier handstands are going to become for you.
