crow pose

Knees on triceps

Crow pose is a yoga position where you balance on your hands with your knees resting on the backs of your upper arms, feet lifted off the ground.

It's one of the first arm balances most practitioners learn, requiring core strength and the willingness to tip forward: I finally held crow pose for five seconds today.
