Working towards karandavasna

This is one of those Asana that's going to take a lot of work and one that I want to focus on in this blog this year. Rob Lucas suggests approaching it via the tripod handstand as you have a stronger base and can work on developing the other elements away from the forearm stand which you develop in Pincha Mayurasana . Below is one my first attempts before Christmas.





Actually I lied this was my first attempt (the good bit happens 1:10 in).
