Workshops with Fabian:
Locomotion & floorwork,
handbalancing & partner acrobatics
Day 1 - Locomotion & Floorwork -
Saturday | 11:00 AM – 1:00 PM
This workshop is designed to develop strength, mobility, coordination, and body awareness through movement.
We’ll explore a variety of locomotion patterns, breaking each movement down into manageable pieces before integrating them into smooth, flowing sequences. The workshop follows a simple progression: isolate, integrate, and improvise, giving participants the tools to confidently continue exploring on their own.
The floorwork section focuses on developing a better relationship with the ground. We’ll use the floor to improve mobility, create more space through the body, and encourage softer, more efficient movement while reducing unnecessary tension in the joints and tissues.
By the end of the workshop, participants will have a clear framework they can integrate into their own movement practice.
day 2 - Partner Acrobatics Fundamentals
Sunday | 10:00 AM – 12:00 PM
This workshop introduces the essential foundations of partner acrobatics.
We’ll cover all of the key base, flyer, and spotting positions before progressing into beginner inversions and dynamic movements. Once the fundamentals are established, we’ll combine them into our first partner acrobatic flows and sequences.
For anyone looking to take their handstand practice further, I’ll also introduce the first progressions towards Hand-to-Hand, providing exercises that participants can continue practicing after the workshop.

About Fabian
Coach Fabi is a movement, handstand, and acrobatics coach from Frankfurt, Germany whose journey into movement began with a life-changing moment. Nearly ten years ago, while traveling in Vietnam, he survived a serious motorbike accident that almost cost him his life. The experience profoundly shifted his perspective, inspiring him to explore movement, health, and the potential of the human body with much deeper intention.
Since then, Fabi has dedicated himself to the study of movement. He has been practicing handstands for over eight years and spent the last six years learning from some of the best handstand coaches worldwide, particularly Yuval Ayalon and Ulrik on Hands, collecting and refining effective drills and training methods for building strong and sustainable inversions.
A major influence on his journey has been Merlin Lang, with whom Fabi has worked closely for the past six years. Through this mentorship—rooted in the movement philosophy of Ido Portal—he discovered a deeper appreciation for the body and learned to move, train, and explore physical potential in ways he had never imagined before.
Throughout his path, Fabi has also trained and collaborated with high-level circus acrobats, gaining insight into professional-level body control, awareness, and performance.
Before dedicating himself fully to movement and acrobatics, Fabi competed on Ninja Warrior Germany, where he placed among the Top 40 athletes of his season. He later qualified for Ninja Warrior Allstars, where the best competitors compete against each other on an even more demanding obstacle course.
Today, Fabi combines his background in obstacle sports, handbalancing, movement practice, and acrobatics to help students build strength, confidence, and a deeper connection to their bodies. For him, movement is not only about physical skill—it is a lifelong exploration and a celebration of being alive.
