Headstand to Single-Arm Handstand — Fetch with Remy

Headstand into a single-arm handstand

A headstand pressed into a single-arm handstand, while playing fetch. Remy sets the tempo.

The transition is the hard part. Moving from three points of contact to one means the shoulder takes the full load at exactly the moment the balance corrections get smaller and faster. Most people can hold a headstand long before they can leave it in any controlled direction.

Doing it on a schedule dictated by a dog with a ball is an additional constraint that nobody asked for.
