Description: From Adho mukha svanasana slowly inhale and putting your weight on the hands bring the right leg between the two hands and straighten the left leg behind like a stick resting on the toes. Bend the left knee and place it on the floor and arch the spine backward. Lift the head and neck first up and then back. Roll the eyes up. The right foot remains between the hands.
