One of the biggest mistake people do when trying to balance on one hand is that the take the hand too fast from the floor, or they take it to far from the body, or too high or back and forward...what I'm trying to say is that whatever you do with that hand will influence the hall handstand...that hand is your steering wheel...if you take it to the front your body will twist to the front, if you lift it too fast or to high it will take the hips with you, knocking you down the handstand. go the point?
What i recommend is to take your time when taking that hand off the floor.
First go to the tips of your fingers...hold the balance..feel it, pay attention to what is going on on you
entire body especially your shoulder and hips...then you will know when to take your arm off the floor.
when you take your hand from the floor take a very slowly to the side and leave it hanging there( but closer to the ground) take your time to move that arm any further Thant that...and now....FEEL AND HOLD!
