GOOF feat. Mr. Curtis

Gentlemen, ladies, allow yourselves a few precious moments to observe Mr. Curtis roll out of a handstand with the confidence and swagger of Ludacris on some 20's with the top back.

It is impossible to show a direct translation between having the ability to do a somersault and the effect it has on your everyday life, mainly because a somersault never happens exactly the way you practice it. But what a somersault represents is getting over our fear of falling, and when you aren't afraid to fall many opportunities open up to you. Plus, the more distance you can put between yourself and the Life Alert the better.

Mr. Curtis came in in May afraid of falling when he did a squat. Now he is confident(ish) rolling out of a handstand without a spotter. Give it up for the big fella!
