Scorpion pose

I am so chuffed to see that I am getting better and better at forearm stands. This is a scorpion pose, last time I posted a picture of the variation of the scorpion pose and touched on a few benefits. The benefits I wrote about apply to  this scorpion pose as well.The reason why this pose is called the scorpion pose  is because the pose resembles the scorpion with its tail lifted upwards. When the scorpion wants to attack its victim ,it raises the tail above the back and strikes the victim over the head. This pose resembles a scorpion ready to strike. The only difference between the scorpion pose and the variation of the scorpion pose is that with the scorpion pose, the legs are hanging right above the head. Whereas with variation of the scorpion pose you can play around with your legs, one leg can hang above your head, while the other leg hangs just  above your stomach.
