Ep. 4: Can Everyone Do SuperHuman Acrobatic Feats? Yuri Marmerstein Tells Us How

We interview Yuri Marmerstein, an acrobat and gymnast who has made a name for himself as one of the authorities on hand balancing. Yuri's feats, which you can see in the video below, are absolutely superhuman, but what's more impressive is that despite spending some time training with some of the greats, Yuri is largely self taught, and is teaching people all over the world to perform these seemingly superhuman feats by themselves. What he offers, then, is a very unique perspective on learning incredible acrobatic and physical feats from someone who was not born into it, and who hasn't trained since the age of 4, like most of the elite gymnasts you may have seen. This interview is very technical and nerdy, and we go very deep into some of the skills and the path to learning them. But, if you've ever dreamed of standing on one hand, doing double backflips, or any other seemingly superhuman gymnastic skills, you'll find the interview to be really fascinating and encouraging!
