Hand walking is an unusual form of locomotion, in which the walker moves primarily using their hands. Before one can begin this method of motion, a handstand position must be attained and maintained, which requires good upperbody strength, as well as a heightened sense of balance and spatial awareness.
Hand walking is often used to keep balance in a free handstand (without a wall), and due to the shifting balance, for brief periods all the weight is held on one arm. For this reason, it helps prepare for, and is safe with the attainment of, the one-arm handstand.
