Hi, my name is Oleksiy Kononov — I’m a Ukrainian gymnast, ex–Cirque du Soleil performer, creator of the KONONOV Club
I’ve spent 35+ years on my hands in gymnastics, performed in over 2,000 shows on stage, and helped more than 20,000 students learn this amazing skill online.
My mission is to involve as many people as possible in the world of gymnastics. I believe gymnastics gives you a superpower — and powerful people make this world better.
In today’s digital world, real-life group workshops are becoming rare and very valuable. They make learning faster, deeper, and much more enjoyable.
That’s why I decided to organize this Handstand Workshop — and I’ll be happy to meet you live.
This workshop is for you if…
You stand confidently at the wall but can’t balance in the middle
You can hold a few seconds but can’t repeat it consistently
Your legs fall, shoulders collapse, or hips drift behind the line
You feel stuck after months (or years) of practice
You want clean technique, not random “lucky” balance
You want a real personal record you can rely on
