Discover Secrets Of The Greatest Hand Balancers Of ALL Time!

How You Can Use Their Knowledge To Build The Strength And Skills You’ve Always Desired

Dear Hand Balancer,

My first attempts at a handstand were just plain embarrassing. I was going at it with absolutely no instructions except “just try to stay on your hands.”

But I am not the kind of person that just gives up easily. I knew that I wanted to be able to hold a handstand so I did what any kid would do. I hopped on the internet and went to the search engines.

I was dismayed. The only things I could find were videos of professionals but not a single line of text about how I could get started down this path. I kept the search up while I was still practicing my ugly handstands for days on end.

A Stroke Of Luck Changed Everything.
One Hand Planche
Finally, one day I happened upon this antique book called The True Art and Science of Hand Balancing written by two men, Professor Paulinetti and Bob Jones. I paid the excessive cost because I knew that this book was something special. I was not disappointed and neither will you be when you find out what it contains.

What Make These Two Men The Best Hand Balancers Ever?

The first, Professor Paulinetti, was superior to every man in the hand balancing game. He originated many of the tricks including the truly unbelievable one-arm planche. Not only could he stand on one hand better then most people could on one leg, but he had a well-earned reputation for teaching the student not only the trick but the polish that finishes and "sells" even the simplest feat.

Robert Jones was one of Paulinetti’s most promising pupils. His most legendary skill was the thumbs balance on the tips of Indian clubs. This and other feats made him famous and he was featured in Ripley’s Believe It Or Not nine times.Thumbs Balance

Between the two of them there was 70+ years of practicing and teaching hand balancing and gymnastics. Back in the 1940’s they wrote THE book on this art. In order to pass their memory and teachings on I have made this book available again today because this “lost” information can not be allowed to slip into the cracks of time. With their aid you will not have to suffer through practicing your handstands any longer without the knowledge of how to do it right.

"The True Art and Science of Hand Balancing is great.
A friend of mine which is already as mobile on his
hands as he is on his feet glanced through the book
and was amazed someone actually took the time to
break down all different techniques."

Paulinettii Hand StandIf you are just starting out you should not be scared of the feats these men performed. The fact is that you cannot advance to the difficult feats without a firm grasp on all the basics.

    "If seeing is believing, What I see and what I am trying to copy, is my inspiration. Make no mistake about it, the marvels in this book, these gentlemen you will see in the book, and what they could do, isn't something one can do over night, but given drive, and want, such as my want to do more with my body than walk around and eat cheese burgers, yes, it'sWesley well within the human body's capabilites.

Alligator Walks, Tiger Bends, and Fish Tail Press-ups, OH MY!

There is just so many things covered in this book that I can’t begin to explain them all.

Nothing else in the world of physical culture seems to astonish quite like hand balancing. Throwing large weights around is not enough to strike awe in most average men, but the strength, skill, and grace it takes to do any hand balancing, even the basic handstand, just has the power to amaze everyone.

Do a difficult stunt in front of a group of people and you will see their jaws drop to the floor.

Few people can do a tiger bend but to achieve one on a single arm is just downright unbelievable. They say seeing is believing which brings me on to my next point…

The Photos Alone Are Worth The Price Of The Whole Book

That’s right! This the only hand balancing course showing real photos to demonstrate the exercises. Inside you’ll find the most incredible pictures demonstrating each and every skill. In fact there are hundreds of photos, and what you see on this site is a just a tiny portion.

Flexible Hand Balance Many of the basic skills have photos showing not just how to do the exercise correctly but several photos displaying the common mistakes. And then you have frame-by-frame movie strips displaying a few of the gymnastic skills such as the rock-up to a handstand.

The last chapter, the Inspirational Photo Section, shows the most amazing hand balancing, hand-to-hand, and pyramid building photos ever seen, many of which have never been done since. Just trying to duplicate all these feats would take many lifetimes of work because these are, beyond doubt, pictures of the best ever.

(You gotta see what the Prison Team from San Quentin could do, look at Page 125.)


It Is Called “The True Art And Science Of Hand Balancing” For Good Reason.

Gymnastic PyramidHand Balancing is an art. Seeing a master of the game displaying what he can do is simply magnificent. This book will teach you how to add the flair that will astonish any crowd. A true mark of an expert is the ability to make what he does look easy.

In order to make something not only look easy but also make it effortless to perform, it is necessary to learn scientific principles. These principles will teach you how to correctly leverage you body and position your hands and limbs to give you the ultimate in efficiency and ease in every stunt you perform.

"The handbalancing book is just awesome. Very detailed and very well done and I've always loved old-school type of training and courses. Since I have been doing handstand training for quite sometime and since then I wanted to try free HS training. I realize it takes time and patience and so I will follow how it works and work into styles I’ve learned, adding in what’s in the course itself. Its going to be fun, challenging and tough as hell. Keep it up my friend and I’m sure whatever you bring out next I will grab."

The Best Information But Not The Best Format

The book was originally written by Professor Paulinetti. Bob Jones came along years later and expanded the course by adding additional photos and a series of magazine articles to flesh out many details.

3 Person Hand BalanceYou should have seen the original. An article would start on one page, continue two pages later, then finish off with another paragraph a couple more pages down. Don’t even ask about the text that ran up and down the page sideways. I did my best to re-format the book to make it easier to read by spending hours to scan and re-type the work.

What you have will be getting is much friendly on the eyes. A few of the articles may appear to just be stories but go through them and you can pick up some informative gems, as well as being entertained.

For example, when you get your book, feel free to skip ahead to Chapter 7 to learn the full details on how to do the hand balance. Just know that everything is covered and you won’t be disappointed. But, if for some reason you are…

100% Guarantee That You Will Become A Better Hand Balancer

With a glance inside, I am sure you will agree that this book is worth far more than the price you pay. This information is so good, I guarantee that not only will you enjoy it but that it will make you better at hand balancing. And you have three months to make sure.

I could not understand why, but if for some reason this book is not what you are looking for, and you no longer want the help of Paulinetti and Jones, just send it back. You would be the first one, so pardon me if I get a bit shocked. However, there will be no questions asked and you will get a full refund.

“Okay Logan - So What’s The Cost For This Incredible Book?”

It is hard to put a price on this book as it would save a novice hand balancer years of frustration and poor performance. With 14 Chapters, 125 pages of jam-packed information and the most unbelievable photos ever, you can’t go wrong.

I found the original book by a stroke of luck, as well as shelling out a small fortune to obtain it. There was a lot of work and effort put into bringing this book back to life, and saving it from fading away into obscurity. Now it is in an easy to read form and you can reap the benefits for a low price, much less than I paid.

I recently saw an original copy floating around on eBay. You would need luck on your side because this is a super rare find. Mind you that this one was for Paulinetti’s original course without all of Jones’ additions, as well. Check out the winning bid price:



Over $150! Pretty outrageous right.  But don’t worry you won’t have to pay that much or even $100 dollars. You can get your hands on this course for the low price of $49 plus S&H.

It is hard to let this book go at this price, especially when you look at the fact that you can’t get this kind of information anywhere else, so this price will not hold forever. Don’t wait, grab onto this opportunity to learn how to Hand Balance from THE Masters.

You Have Everything To Gain And Nothing To Lose

I am confident that you want to learn from the best in the hand balancing game. With this knowledge you can go from zero to hero with a bit of hard work and consistent effort, knowing that you are on the correct path. You probably won’t be duplicating Paulinetti’s One-Arm Planche anytime soon, but you can be doing handstands the right way and much more in less than a week.

From beginner to advance trainee this book will teach you the secrets for only $49  with a money-back guarantee.

Good Luck and Good Handbalancing,



Logan Christopher

    "The book was great, all the pictures were excellent, the book helped me improve my hand balancing abilities." - Nathaniel Day of New Richmond, OH

    - Felix Cincotta of Feeding Hills, MA

    "Teaches the fine details of balancing - that control rather than brute strength is the key." - Nigel Stewart of Bermuda

    "I have to say that these books allows people to have the OPPORTUNITY to learn handbalancing (HB) in the first place. It takes a area of fitness, exercise, and physical training that is exclusive to individuals like acrobats and gymnasts. Martial Artists and breakdancers also practice handbalancing but they don't teach handbalancing like an ART or SCIENCE. I guarantee you won't find "School of Handbalancing" by looking in the yellow pages. Handbalancing is a long, difficult journey that gives rewarding results!" - Sly Chatman of Pheonix, AZ

    "Reading over the chapters over and over again helps me to focus on the key details when I practice the handstand." - Jarlo Ilano of Honolulu, HW

    "It has helped me on how to approach basic skills that I learned differently (i.e. kick up to handstand) and is a great inspiration with all the old school photos."
    - Markus Beer of Burgthann, Germany
