Contortion in Motion
About
Hi, I'm Yufo.
A handstand and flexibility coach who has spent his life exploring a concept called “Contortion in Motion”: strength, balance and range working as one.
Through training in breakin, I discovered a passion for handstands and have been coaching for more than five years. I've studied with some of the best handbalancers in the world, including Yuval Ayalon, Miguel Sant'Ana and Nicolas.
I blend handbalancing, contortion and mobility work into clear progressions, so you build control and range step by step, from your first kick-up to advanced skills.
My background as a contortionist, B-boy and performer across the UAE shapes how I teach. I love sharing what I've learned, learning from everyone I coach, and experimenting with new ideas and collaborators.
