Maintain strong core and shoulder engagement.
Requires a stable Open Hand Headstand and significant hamstring/adductor flexibility.

Actively press outer thighs toward the ceiling, engaging quadriceps.
Keep the hips stacked over the shoulders, and the legs centered over the hips.
Engage the core deeply to support the lower back and maintain stability.
