I learned handstands at a circus school and this tutorial indeed looks very similar to what we where doing.

The article also suggests a belly-to-wall handstands at some point, which (according to my teachers) is a much better exercise for a proper handstand then a back-to-wall handstands.

Two things that help me practice these days:

- voice-controlled timer to keep track of handstand time: https://timeless.aslushnikov.com/ (I didn’t find any readily available so hacked my own)

- facebook’s “Handstands Anonymous” group to boost motivation: https://www.facebook.com/groups/handstandsanonymous/?ref=sha...
