Hand Balancing

Master your weight in suspension. Strength, balance, confidence. All levels.

☽ The Discipline

Master your body in suspension

Hand balancing is the most demanding and rewarding discipline of ground circus. You lift your weight on your hands, find your balance, and master movements. This classic discipline tests your strength, endurance, and determination — and rewards perseverance with tangible results every session.

At Château de Cirque, hand balancing is structured by Philippe Gaglione, a recognized specialist. You start with foundations — core strength, fundamental balance. As you progress, you discover held poses, transitions, and advanced figures.
