2. Bend the right knee and with the right hand, hold
   the top of the foot. The elbow is pointing downwards,
   away from the body.


3. Slowly move the right elbow outwards, rotating the shoulder
   so that the elbow is now pointing up. Drop the head back and
   touch the top of the head with the right foot. Keep the weight in
   the hips to keep them squared and the shoulders are parallel.

Final pose

The left hand reaches for the left foot; hold on

to the left foot with a good grip and keep the

weight equal on both sides of the hip.

TIP! Keep the eyes open to keep the balance easier

while in the pose.

4. While keeping the balance, the left hand slowly
   wraps around the lower back with the palm facing
   down.
