The take home points here guys and gals is this:

You don't need walls to practice handstands… partners work just fine.  This progression is basically a wall walk without moving your hands… so it is actually easier. 

Make sure the body is rigid.

Squeeze the butt to neutralize the pelvis.  

Brace the core to lower your ribs. 

Armpits out and press into the ground to engage the rotator cuff.

Head is neutral (this could a bit better in the video).

Weight is in the pads .. yes the pads of your hands (thenar eminence).

Fingers are splayed out
