I took the help of a friend who knows how to do a handstand and learned from him. My interest in this particular activity is being able to master a handstand because it is just something I find cool and wanted to learn for the longest time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This cas experience will come under activity where the focused LOs are LO1 and LO2 and LO3.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The first learning outcome was showcased here (<em>Identify own strengths and develop areas for growth<\/em>). For this CAS experience, my skills are that I have light workout sessions every alternate day to keep my body physically healthy and strong, so I assume that doing a handstand would not be hard for me. Here I identified my own strength that I already had the fitness level where learning a handstand would not be as hard as it would be if I had not been physically fit and working out.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The second learning outcome was showcased here (<em>Demonstrate that challenges have been undertaken developing new skills<\/em>) So I had a few challenges while trying to do this CAS experiences that were I did not know where to or how to start, learning a handstand is like learning a new skill so i had to work towards my challenges such as, as first I could not even get to take my lower body over my upper body but after practicing a little and understanding how to do it from a friend, i was able to complete the first step to learning the handstand, then another challenge was that I was not able to hold the handstand for a while, i would fall almost immediately, but to overcome this, I had to practice as well, and over time, with practice, I learned how to hold my handstand too.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The third learning outcome was showcased here (<em>initiate and plan a CAS experience<\/em>). For this CAS experience, I had to plan out a whole plan, firstly, I contacted my friend who had been doing gymnastics and asked for his help, to which he agreed to teach and assist me. Then, I had to make time in my everyday schedule and plan when to meet with the friend who would help and get started with the handstand learning.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The learner profile applicable here is being a risk-taker as I am trying to learn something that can be dangerous and something can go wrong and I can be physically hurt, which may not be fatal but still can be problematic. I am pushing myself forward to learn new things that excite me and will benefit my health. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the end, it took me 9 days to learn how to do a handstand but with wall support, so I was not able to learn it all properly either.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>evidence: <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/classof2023.fountainheadschools.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/handstand-edited.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-7719\" width=\"335\" srcset=\"https:\/\/classof2023.fountainheadschools.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/handstand-edited.jpg 412w, https:\/\/classof2023.fountainheadschools.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/handstand-edited-194x300.jpg 194w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 412px) 100vw, 412px\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In this CAS experience, I wanted to be able to do a handstand on my own, at least within a week, because it has always been fascinating for me.
