From a wide standing stance, bend the front knee and place the bottom hand on the floor or a block ahead of the front foot.
Shift the weight forward and lift the back leg until it is parallel to the floor.
Straighten the standing leg and stack the top hip over the bottom one, reaching the top arm to the ceiling.
Hold the balance for the prescribed time with the lifted foot flexed.
Lower the back foot down and repeat on the other side.
