An arm balance with both legs extended out to the side?! Eight angle pose (or a stavakrasana —a name inspired by the story of the sage Astavakra) requires a lot from us yogis: upper body strength, supple hips, and heck of a lot of determination.

Whether you’ve practiced astavakrasana plenty, or never practiced it before, this step-by-step asana breakdown will make it a lot more fun and accessible! Read on to learn prep poses, setup, and refinements for this powerful asana. We also provide a super-useful prop tip that will help you find more ease (and more height!) in this asana.

So, are you ready? Unroll your mat, and let’s begin.
