The Bangkok Handstand Festival returns for its second edition under the concept Find your hands, refine your stand, an intention rooted in revisiting foundations to refine your practice, as well as welcoming newcomers to begin their handstand journey.
We aim to create a supportive space where everyone can connect, exchange ideas, and learn from both teachers and friends. The festival offers workshops for everyone, along with playful community activities that bring all of us together.
Spaces are limited for this unique training and community gathering experience.
All tickets are final and non-refundable. Once your registration is confirmed, it cannot be refunded under any circumstances. If you are unable to attend, you are responsible for selling your ticket to someone else or reaching out to us so we can help selling your tickets.
Tickets are in limited quantities. If we sell out before the final phase, you can join the waiting list. We accept WISE and local bank transfers.
We offer a variety of food, including vegetarian and meat options, as well as water, fruits, and snacks in a buffet.

Just like you, I am a little bit of everything I’ve encountered in life. My ethos is simple: lead with heart and do everything with love. My intention is to bring people together to share, learn, and be part of the experiences we create together. I founded @actacrobatics, where I teach and co-teach acrobatics-related skills such as handstands and partner acro, and I organize workshops and events, including acro camps and retreats. I also bring together Thailand Acro Fest and Bangkok Handstand Festival.
