“Great coaches and community that continue to level up my handstand practice.” - Lupe
“I trust Denise and Garrett with my fitness goals!!” - Melodie
“I LOVE being in the Handstand Group. I never thought a "zoom group" could feel this personal and connected. I get to train 4-times a week with my handstand friends as we are patiently led, challenged and inspired by two outstanding handstand teachers.
Garrett (circus performer extraordinaire) builds our strength and techniques. Denise (yogi extraordinaire) increases our flexibility and is always finding new ways to help us gain confidence and "catch more hang-time" on our hands. Denise's sense of humor and playfulness make the hour fly by - and I come away from training pumped with joyful energy. My body feels stronger and more balanced than it ever has (and I'm 60) Having that shining goal of holding longer handstands keeps me motivated and determined to keep going!” - B Fernandez, Santa Rosa, California

GARETT schniewind
Garrett was born and raised in Flagstaff, AZ. After recovering from an autoimmune illness at 13, he fell in love with all things exercise related. Garrett has been training for almost a decade in just about every discipline you can imagine. Everything from weightlifting, to yoga, to circus arts. He began his journey into circus through handbalance in 2017, added in aerial straps in 2020, and has worked with world-class coaches in both disciplines. Exercise Science and its application to circus is one of his main focuses. He as spent the last seven years learning as much as possible about this from experts in their field, and combining it with practical coaching knowledge from coaches in NYC, Montreal, and Las Vegas. Now, Garrett is a full-time coach, and his goal is to use the knowledge he has gained to help you improve in the most sustainable and efficient way possible.
